The Sunday Five: Holiday Plans


1: Are you planning anything special for the end of the year holidays? 

2: Are you traveling anyplace for the end of the year holidays? 

3: Is your gift shopping finished? 

4: Who will be cooking for your end of the year holidays? 

5: Have you thought about your goals for 2026? 

My answers: 

1: Are you planning anything special for the end of the year holidays? Quiet time with my sweet bear, here in our comfy nest. 

2: Are you traveling anyplace for the end of the year holidays? Thankfully, no. For years, family obligations turned the holidays into travel days. It is relaxing to stay home.  If my siblings want to join us for the holidays, I will be glad to cook.  US Highway 1 runs in both directions, from near my brother's front door, and our front gate. 

3: Is your gift shopping finished? By the time this posts, Yes. 

4: Who will be cooking for your end of the year holidays? I will. The plan is roast beef and Yorkshires for Christmas, and probably ham for New Year's. 

5: Have you thought about your goals for 2026? I have a couple of ideas floating around, it is time for me to start putting things on the screen. Near the end of the year, my results from 2025 and goals for 2026 will be a post. 

Please share your answers in the comments.

  1. 1: Are you planning anything special for the end of the year holidays? Nothing other than Lessons and Carols services and Christmas services
    2: Are you traveling anyplace for the end of the year holidays? Nope. Was able to give that up once Mom died.
    3: Is your gift shopping finished? Nope. Still a few odds and ends. Mostly local merchants.
    4: Who will be cooking for your end of the year holidays? Me if there is any cooking (partner gave up cooking some time during the Clinton Administration).
    5: Have you thought about your goals for 2026? Got to set up and implement a plan for decluttering and downsizing (or rather right-sizing)..

  2. 1. No holidays planned.
    2. Boxing Day, the day after Christmas I will travel for an hour for a family Christmas Day celebration.
    3. I am not buying anything for anyone, aside from myself, which I've already bought, and some cash for the great nieces and nephews.
    4. My ex sister in law on Boxing Day, but the whole family will contribute.
    5. Goal for 2026, find the 6 key on the keyboard as I kept hitting the 5 key when typing 2026. Otherwise, survive and live well.
