A Vacation




I've made an executive decision; I am taking a short blogging break and will return on December 28. The fun part about writing your own blog is that you can make such decisions. But then, you are also in charge of the end of the year bonuses. Hmm, will have to give that some thought. Perhaps my bonus will include chocolate. What do you think? :)


Hope you take time to rest and refresh too. Enjoy family, friends, and fellowship. Have a blessed week. See you soon!

My eyes popped at the word chocolate and it's not even 9 o'clock yet. I love the picture. Have a great break and a Merry Christmas!

Yes, Wendy, I would say chocolate is mandatory. You in? :) Thanks for stopping and blessings to you and your family:)

TEA! You must include a pot of tea with the chocolate. I like green jasmine. :)
Have a blessed Christmas with your family.

Hahaaa! An executive decision... I love that! LOL Enjoy your holiday. :-)

Karen Lange said...

Jessica,
Well, since I am CEO of my writing endeavors (other than the Lord's counsel of course) I figured it was an executive call! Feel free to make your own executive decisions along the same lines:) Thanks for stopping by!

I'm doing likewise ... though obviously I'm checking in on my blogger-buddies from time-to-time.

Enjoy your holiday, and by all means do the chocolate bonus thing. I think I'll make mine an extra piece of apple pie ala mode. Maybe even TWO extras!

Blessings, and Merry Christmas,
Kathleen

P.S. Thank you for your frequent visits to my place in recent months. I look forward to gleaning your writing wisdom in 2010!

Karen Lange said...

Patti,

Thank you so much; I take that as a big compliment! I enjoy your blog too (and your books too, I believe:)
Blessings to you and your family!

Karen Lange said...

Kathleen,
Yes, I am checking in around the blog world too, or at least with my sweet friends like you:) Apple pie a la mode sounds quite good about now...

It's a pleasure stopping by your blog. I'm glad we met! Blessings:)
