Welcome to this week's tips
Hi Everyone,

My Grandma's church did a nice tribute with a slideshow of her life and people telling stories and saying nice things about her. She is 94 and said, "I didn't even recognize the person they were talking about." Humble. My sister and I sang an old 40's tune called, "Peg O My Heart". Below is Grandma and Grandpa.

We've had many inches of snow this week. Before it got too cold, Brea and I walked around town. (Pix by Brea)
 
Weekly Simplicity Tips
1. Fill your plate with vegetables first.
2. What do you still need to do to prepare for the holiday? What can you let go?
3. Speak truth with kindness. Don't be wishy-washy with your communication.
4. Take at least 5 minutes a day in silence, even, especially in December.
5. Which good habit has fallen off this month? Figure out how to do it in the new year.
6. Sit with your discomfort instead of running away with busyness and distraction.
7. Take a drive to see the lights.
