Shopping done? Lots to Do.

"A Christmas Carol" is playing at the library;

For those of you who didn't notice, the full moon emerged from the shadow of the earth Tuesday morning unscathed. Our closest celestial friend made a spectacular solstice appearance Tuesday evening.  

Let's celebrate:

1. You could go shopping, but you already know that. You may want to go online and suck up the one-day shipping costs. Deadline nears.

4. Nothing says winter like "swimming." Bellmore/Merrick swimmers take on Plainview JFK at 5 p.m. at the high school pool.

5. Or you could stop all the seasonal madness and spend some quiet time in church. The Good Shepherd Lutheran Church is holding a mid-week Advent servive at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday. The Church is on Central Park Road in Plainview, just south of the middle school.
