i still can't get used to a hot xmas

i find i still can't get used to a hot xmas . i yearn for the cold at this time of year .. seeing your breath when you talk..marks & spencers yummy traditional treats ... the shoppers panic .. twinkly lights from windows at 4 in the afternoon...ice on the windows... frozen milk bottles on your doorstep .... i could go on for ever.. now i settle for cooking dinner in a sarong [ and sometimes a sweatband ]
breakfast at the beach and a swim in the turquoise water of the indian ocean...maybe see a dolphin or two... see my grandchilren and children running thru the waves ...then dinner late afternoon ...and games...then a nap...and a late night .. bliss .. but it would be perfect if it snowed...merry xmas to all and a safe and happy new year...

I love summer, but not days and days of over 38 degrees especially on Christmas day..
Enjoy the day with family!
Hugs Julia ♥

Happy Christmas, Lynnie! I think perhaps a White Christmas could be nice! Let's be happy for what we have!
Hugs and best wishes to you and yours - Lurline♥!

Where are you from that you would be missing the snow and cold at Christmas? It would be very weird for me to experience a hot, sunny Christmas out your way now... 8-)
Nice Afghan by the way...
