Let the spirit of the Season move you now.



"And there were in the same country shepherds, abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them! And they were so afraid ... And the angel said unto them, "Fear not! For, behold, I bring you tidings o great joy, which shall be to all my people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ, the Lord."

"And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger." And suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the Heavenly Host praising God, and saying, "Glory to God in the Highest, and on Earth peace, and good will toward men." "That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown." - Linus Van Pelt

Thanks, YP. Joy to the World!

That reminds me I need to see if that show's on Hulu. My boys love the Peanuts, and our DVDs are missing....

I could never do that. I'm too big of a scatterbrain and too easily distracted by shiny objects.

I've done all my shopping ... I did it all online

That's my solution, too. There are a few exceptions, but it's so much easier to shop while sitting than to deal with the hustle, bustle, parking lots, rude shoppers, low inventory, etc. Truth be told, that's how I do the majority of my shopping all year long.

Tinker, they are showing Charlie Brown Christmas tonight on ABC. It's already been on once this year but will reair tonight at 7 cst.

ps...LOVE LOVE LOVE American Horror Story!! I'm wondering where it's headed now after last nights episode.

 

[tink1957]

that positive attitude will pull you thru, hang in there!

Thanks Janet, I'm trying not to throw too much of a pity party and focus on the good things (if I could focus with my vision the way it is )

What with my diet and other things going on, I have not done my usual cookie baking or wrapped any presents. I also accomplished most of my shopping online along with one trip to the local mall. I did put up the tree which is about all that will happen for a few days till I get in panic mode and start baking. The presents will get wrapped before Christmas, that's about all I can promise at this point.

If anyone is making fudge ship me some
My mom makes great peanutbutter fudge but won't make it anymore cause she says its too big of a pain

 

[keishashadow]

"C" is for cookie, it's good enough for me

have yet to watch any of the american horror stories, still backlogged on the Christmas specials. My oldest DS's family was @ WDW for the parade taping, looking forward to seeing if they got on camera. I can't believe they invested the time to stand there for so long. I've been there a few times when it's been going on but always skipped the park that day to avoid the throng.

Well, it's official ... this little gentleman is the newest member of our family

Everything went smoothly today, and he made himself right at home, so much so that when his breeder went to pick him up tonight to take him home, he ran upstairs to the bedroom ... so we all agreed he should just stay.

RE:

American Horror Story

I am still floored regarding last week, when "Violet learned the rules of the house"- and Constance was questioned by police.
My jaw was on the floor- I never ever expected what happened.

I love Zachary Quinto's character, and the orignal owner/doctor who built the house for his wife- he was a major rotten bad apple on BIG LOVE> and he was great.

I had no idea anyone here watched it. I was intrigued, and watched the first episode. I got several others hooked now. It is rather unfortunate that we have to wait until next October for it to start again.

I forgot to add- a nearly fully naked Dylan Mcdermott every episode is just HOT HOT HOT.
I love my almost porn horror show.

Bonny and Lee, the newest member of your family is adorable.

bonny, is the newest member of the family get to sleep with you and lee tonight?

Bonny......I`m not the biggest animal fan......but he is gorgeous.....He would tempt me to get a dog. You`re so lucky

Best of luck....... you`ll do great


We have only seen up to Piggy Piggy episode of American Horror Story........I`m managing to avoid all spoilers as you are so far ahead of us. But loving this show so much......

Haven`t been around a lot recently. Things not so great over here, not drastically bad...just not great.

Mum goes in to hospital Tues for an operation, and I won`t make it up due to weather She has my brothers and sisters close though, but it doesn`t make me feel any better!!

Some of you may remember me saying a while ago about DS and his back, which he was getting treated for sciatica....well turns out he may need back surgery as he has an extra disc and it has bulged which is causing the pain. I can`t believe my 17 year old, well 18 in January may need back surgery We`re all a bit shell shocked really as we never expected it, but the MRI results were clear as crystal. He has his college final year exams next year as well so we`re worrying about how that will be affected with all this.

So with that and a few other niggles here and there, we`re struggling to get motivated for the festive season. Getting there though. Finished all my shopping apart from fresh groceries which we`ll get end of next week. Ordered our turkey today. But DH is sadly working this year 25th, 26th, 27th and 28th so dinner will be around 7 for a change. We`ll make the best of it though. He will be off right through christmas and new year next year the way his rota works.

Macraven.........the thought of shopping on the 24th Dec terrifies the living daylights out of me......I admire your bravery!!!

Have a good weekend everyone

Just wanted to pop in and say Hi ... our new addition is getting along nicely with Dawnie, however, the kittens are still unsure of Tanner as he's much more rambunctious than our "senior" Dawnie. He also needs to be taught a few manners - which we're working on and are making good progress so far.
