Christ Is Risen

A Blessed Pascha to all of my brothers and sisters who celebrated Christ's Resurrection today and continued blessings of the Fast to all of my brothers and sisters who yet await His Resurrection. May the day come soon when we shall all celebrate it together - each and every year.

Many years,

Neil

It just seems weird that the first one is over already. We haven't even gotten our Easter decorations out yet.

You know, it just occurred to me as I looked at the manger scene I never got around to putting away, Christ is Risen! wink

We had a family friend that one year just decided not to take down their fake tree. It just got continuously re-decorated for each holiday.

We leave our Christmas stuff up until Theophany (January 19th). I'm sure people think there's something wrong with us.

Let's just say I am keeping the spirit of Christmas alive throughout the year. Sounds better than just being lazy, doesn't it? biggrin

AMM:

Christ is Risen!! Indeed He is Risen!!

But it ought to be a good day for you to shop for Paschal things. I saw a sign this morning on the way to work advertising Easter candy and decorations at 50% off.

Christ is Born! ---- once and Forever!

Christ is Risen! --- once and Forever!

Keep the decorations up!

It is much easier to keep them dusted regularly throughout the year than it is to put them in the attic and then have to dig them out later. laugh
