I received my first Christmas card today. It was from an old university friend who now lives in Hong Kong. I was surprised and rather shocked to read that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Fortunately, after a mastectomy, she recovered completely. However, she's the first of my friends who is my age and has been diagnosed - it's odd to think of it.

I also opened my first Advent Calendar window as the title to this entry implies. Lovely calendar, rather unexpected window.
