Hopefully, by this stage of the game, you have called it a wrap on the holiday shopping for the season. If it's not all done and dusted by now, it's time to pair it down to your nearest independent boutique-type stores such as Petaluma's One Planet Fair Trade Store .
Strolling around town this week, there's been a friend or neighbor at every turn, on the hunt for those last little things to make the season a tad brighter for another.
We made it through the Lunar Eclipse, then the longest night and shortest day and have entered the final stretch toward the last week of the year.
With all the crazy weather conditions around the world right now, according to The Knowledge of Things Unknown (1729), it's key to keep an eye on the day upon which Christmas falls and the climate.
"If Christmas falls on Saturday," claims the old teaching "the winter with great wind, snow and cold, the Summer good, there shall be war in many lands." Think I prefer the Sunday predicition: "If Chrismas Day fall on a Sunday, that year shall be a warm winter,the summer hot and dry, peace and quietness shall be plenteous among married folks."
