You don't need to spend huge amounts of cash for this, but if you join the many group efforts at work, or church, or clubs, before you realize there is a good amount of food and supplies collected as well as toys for those children that otherwise wouldn't get a present of Christmas day.
This year has been tough for us, some of you may remember my post about two months ago called "Where's the money", well "mi chica" did lose her job as a loan officer and to this day is still unemployed. But even now, we are still blessed because we have a family and we have each other. We are waiting for the new year to come to start putting our plan in effect. We decided to let the status quo for the remaining of the year.
And so, here we are. December is here and with it the madness of the commercialisation, but also there are plenty of good things that remind us what the season is all about. Each individual family may celebrate different, while some may not even celebrate at all but it's up to you and me to make this Christmas all it can be, yes the presents and the abundance of food is always nice but don't forget the goodwill towards your fellow man.
I decided to share this song Roy Orbison / Willie Nelson sing that talks about this issue. Fair warning this is computer karaoke with just a lap top and a mic, so don't expect much, besides my singing still sucks, but I think it's getting better though. lol So enjoy... or not, it's up to you.
SEASONS GREETING
FELIZ NAVIDAD

Great job, Jose!!! :)
Jose...you have a beautiful voice! I really liked your rendition. Thanks for the invite :)
Oh I had never heard that song before but it's so pretty. Good job Daddy!
I think our christmas will be great this year as always... broke or not! We're all in the same boat here.
I thought it was wonderful!!! You sounded awesome - so I don't want you to ever say that your singing sucks - because it doesn't!!
Your post was wonderful too... I really do have to keep in mind that it is not about the presents, but about the love :) Thank you for reminding me!
Well, I had never heard that song before but you sound pretty good.
I couldn't make out the lyrics but then again, the earphones I was using suck!
I still prefer your Kenny Rogers song though.
Besitos,
Chely
Good job! Your my American Idol!
Esta cancion es especial me parese que tiene ese toque de nostalgia que te hace ponerte triste, pero en buena onda, ya sabes que donde hay salud, hay todo. Me gusta mucho como la cantas.
