Serving in the Army

I'm off to ring bells for the Salvation Army at our local mall.  This will be my 3rd or 4th year ringing, and I must admit I wasn't such an ardent fan in the beginning.  I just didn't know what this army was all about and it seemed kinda cheesy to be standing by a red kettle ringing a bell.  But I've come to know this army as one that really does help those in need, and spends very little of its receipts on administrative costs.  

So I'm joining my Groovy sisters and our husbands for a fabulous homemade breakfast extravaganza before we all go out and do our duty.  We are humbled to know that we have both the resources to celebrate together and to give to others this Christmas season.

God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing yee dismay.
