My Life is Crap

On the Twelfth Day of Christmas...

my true love gave to me:

Picture
Day 12
Date: January 5th
Celebration: Epiphany Eve & St. John Neumann
        First bishop in America

Gift: Twelve Drummers Drumming
Meaning: The twelve points of the Apostles' Creed
Now, to celebrate Twelfth Night, the eve of Epiphany, correctly you'll need a cake, a bean and a king (very similar to the King Cake of Marti Gras).  This morning I am getting an epidural steroid injection so I won't be celebrating this year but now that I know so much, maybe next year!

Thanks for playing!!!!
