I have really messed this up

People who are computer challenged should not be allowed to play with all the gadgets and stuff in this blog.  I can't find anything anymore.  It took me five minutes to figure out how to get to new posts.  When I get through with this I am going to try and simplify it again, but I don't want to go out until I have finished because I am not sure I could find this again. 
Are you ready for christmas?  Ours is going to be no fun this year so I am ready for it to be over.  The only things that I looked  forward to are over so let it come and go. the 1st Baptist church, which is huge, takes over the civic center for a long weekend and puts on the most wonderful plays every year for the public for free. It is hard to believe the city still lets a religious play have center stage in the city but I truly believe if they didn't there would be such an uproar and many of leading citizens would be out of a job.  It is a tradition that I hope will go on forever.  This year they did Scrooge with a religious twist.  It was a little long (three hours) but worth every bit.  I also look forward to giving some presents to friends and loved ones.  That is pretty much done.  I was thinking that we give to a very interesting group. A couple who have been so good to us and always there when we need them.  A friend  and her brother who has a big family but they don't come to see her very often.  She is like a sister to me.  You know she is one of those friends you can call any time any day and she will be there.  Then we buy for two of our sons friends.  They are both alone and in their 40's.  It just seems like they would be lonely so we kind of adopt them.  Our son is always teasing us that we will end up with a whole house full of kids again if we're nto careful. We will have christmas with our son and then he will be moving to Nashville Tn. the first of the year.  We will miss him, but he has to move on and grow.  Our other son lives in colorado with his family and they want to be in their new house for the first christmas at their home.  We understand that and so we sent boxes to them and will talk on christmas morning.  We only have two grandchildren and they are at the age that they want to be with their friends. 
I wrote a short play a couple of years ago.  The only character in it was Santa.He talked sbout why he almost wasn't going to do Christmas that year because of all the termoil in the world.and how people have gone overboard on expecting things..  Then God spoke to him and told him he had to keep doing his job because he wss the spirit of giving and after all that was why God gave us the baby in the first place. I never let anyone do that play for some reason.  It is still my favorite   Maybe I will put it in here some day and let you be the judge of whether I should have a church do it.  
Well, I will quit rambleing and try to fix the layouts .  wish me luck. If I forget to tell you Merry christmas yes Merry birth of Jesus.  We are to love our neightbors as we love ourselvies.  So Luv ya Sass
