December 13th – Feliz Navidad 🎶

by annemariedemyen, posted in A Time To Celebrate - December 2021

One of my favourite ways to celebrate the holidays was to enjoy the music of the season – until it was not. For years the thought of Christmas carols and hymns upset me. On December 1st, the radio stations and department stores would start to ring in the season with the likes of ‘Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer’ and ‘Silent Night’ – and I would feel physically ill and emotionally scarred.

This year, I decided that I was going to celebrate this Christmas Season – no holds barred! I have been cleaning and shopping and decorating. I have watched Christmas specials, baked Christmas treats AND I have been playing hours of Christmas music. It was a bit difficult going in, but things have turned around. If I am having a good day, the music makes it better. If I am having a bad day, the music lifts my spirits as it did long ago. It’s a Christmas Miracle. 🌟

Today, I decided to share some favourite Christmas tunes. My apologies to those who cannot access North America You Tube offerings. Hopefully, you will recognize the tunes and share in some pleasant memories.

Feliz Navidad
Little Drummer Boy
The Newborn King – Bonanza Christmas Special
Old Toy Trains
Away In a Manger
Do They Know It’s Christmas

I hope that jogged some memories or at least reminded you of your own favourite Christmas Carols from over the years.

That is it for today, folks. Take care and have a great day. 💞

  3. Haven’t been able to capture the Christmas spirit this year, but reading your positive post sure helps. Have yourself a merry little Christmas Anne Marie. And good luck with surgery…

  5. Sure glad it helps. It is helping me a lot and Lord knows I need the help. People complain about the terrible two’s. Why doesn’t anybody warn us about the friggin’ awful forties? At least they were cute when they were two. Now they are just a pain in the ass. Thanks Neese! Should be great to have it done.
