Yah baby!!! Did you see Clay performing on the Billboard Award show??? He looked HOT! AND....HE WON AN AWARD FOR SINGLE OF THE YEAR!!!!!!

 

[CrazyBoutDisney]

FINALLY!!!! I get a chance to post!! Church choir ran late tonight because Sunday is our big Christmas program!

Soooooooooo, I get home to find a lovely box from Kristy and open it up to find it's full of green styrofoam peanuts!!!! LOL!!!!Naaahhh, there was more! I caught sight of a white pom pom in there, grabbed and pulled out the cutest stuffed snowman! He's wearing a purple sweater and knit cap and has a checkered purple and tan scarf around his little neck. He is soooooooo cute!!! Dig in the peanuts some more and find a beautiful red stocking with a snowman face and little pom-pom snowflakes on it and a beautiful Christmas card with a poem on it about friendship! Inside the stocking were Cinnamon Scratch and Sniff Christmas stickers, a set of 4 canape knives with mitten handles (each mitten is different), a pair of powder blue finger towels with the cutest snowman couple appliqued on them, a deck of Coca Cola playing cards, a Coca Cola beaded ornament, a miniature Coke glass and a little Coca Cola tin that is the perfect size for my allergy pills when we go to WDW!!!! Way down in the toe of the stocking I found 2 Yankee Candle tarts--Jack Frost and White Christmas. WOW!! Too cool!!! Then, when I was emptying the styro peanuts into a bag (Yes, I recycle them ), I found a candy cane shaped plastic container full of M&Ms!!!! Whoo-hooo, JACKPOT!!!! So now, I have my chocolate fix, all is right in my world!!!

Thank you so very much, Kristy!! I love it all! And the blue towels match my guest bathroom so perfectly!! They are just the perfect shade!!

Got some lovely cards in the mail, too. Thank you, Pam and Nancy! Mine are waiting to be addressed, but will go out shortly. Pam, those snowbirds are just adorable and Nancy, I love your confetti addiction!!!!

Nope, Kristy, didn't see Clay. Been playing Christmas cards tonight. I've finally got everything addressed and ready to go. DH did most of them already. Now, I have to wait til I can get to the post office to buy stamps.

Morning!

Just a quick hello this morning. Almost time to wake up the first 2 boys for school.

Sounds like a great stocking, Beth.

I received cards from Pam & Nancy, too. Thanks! I forgot about Nancy's confetti addiction, though, and it fell all over my lap.

We had rain all day yesterday, too. Blech. Going to get real cold here the next few days and possibly some snow coming. Blech.

OK, gotta run!

 

[flrose]

Morning! Not much of anything newsworthy here today!
Christmas cards are addressed, just need stamps and then off to the post office.

I forgot to say "Thanks" to Nancy & Pam, for the cards!

Beth, your stocking sounds wonderful. You are lucky I'm not closer or I would be borrowing all the coke stuff for my collection. Did stop at Lowe's yesterday to pick up a piece for
my Christmas coke village.

Better do some work. Hope this day flies by Too much on my mind to concentrate about work.

Take care all! Stay warm, dry and hold on to your hats! (It's very windy here.)

 

[Pam]

I forgot about Nancy's confetti addiction, though, and it fell all over my lap.

I always try to CAREFULLY open her cards, too!! But I still managed to scatter some snowmen on the rug!!

Liz got roadkill? Cool - wonder who sent that???

Lily - rain here, too - and all of our lovely snow has melted and now we have some flooding going on..

Sherry - was just saying yesterday that I miss the kids' School plays and programs - now that they are both in HS. Have fun!

RoseMary - Good Morning!

to Kristy and everyone else!!

 

[helenabear]

Just popping in to say good morning to you all I am sleepy because my husband decided that he didn't need as much sleep since he's visiting his parents. So he kept me up Havea great day alL!

 

[lizdotcom99]

I am off to go and wrap presents for the day!!! Greg's rich brother pays me to do something I love.....wrap presents...and lots of them, so I am sure, as usual this will be an all day job!!! Since I am done with all of mine, this will be fun. Christmas was a meager one here, so I will get to once again I get to live vicariously through others!! I gotta tell you....living vicariuously through others is WAY over rated!!! But hey, I am still one very fortunate girl....who is very thankful for all her great friends.....

 

[Tiger Lily 03]

Hi YaYas!
Had to catch my breath for a couple and where better than with YaYas I must tell ya.

I have to laugh as I read about Nancy's confetti addiction. I left the card in the envelope and DH opened it...you know what happened. I also made him put EVERYTHING back in cuz I told him I just had to save it.


Then my mother got to the card and guess what..

Well, the card is posted on our "card wall/window" no more confetti games.

Liz, have fun wrapping. Living vicariously through others for this one here too.

Have fun wrapping, Liz. I hate wrapping...I'm horrible at it. I have to do it all this year, too, as DH has only one arm to work with right now!

Another one here who lives vicariously through others.

Going to play Bingo at my inlaws again tonight. MIL called awhile ago and she's ordering pizza, so no cooking tonight. WOO HOO!

 

[Meriweather]

A day of wrapping presents, Liz! How fun! I love wrapping presents!
