Some Advent Stuff

I am sorry I have not been posting very much recently - and here it is, almost the second week of Advent! Oh my. Well, I have some tasks which are keeping me from writing all the things I wish I could be writing - I can only type so fast, and there are only - how long does this planet take to rotate again? Oh whatever. Anyway, here are some of my past works which you might investigate, until I get some time to write more new stuff for this blogg. I will, God willing, but I have other duties which do not pertain to this blogg... If you get to Quayment, be sure to look for my published works. Someday they may get to your town as well.

From Advent 2005: A Jesse Tree
(Note: 2005 was the longest possible Advent; this year is one day shorter, so you can omit one of the prophet items from the middle. Even if you don't want to make the ornaments, you may find the texts interesting. Try drawing your own - that's even better.
