Welcome.

Rumor has it that the Beagle lander will play that tune after touchdown.
*snort*
Think the bugs and such there will be impressed?

THE BELLS
Author Unknown

Chorus
Jingle bells, Shopping bells, jingle all the way,
Oh, what fun it is to go shopping everyday.
Candy store, five and ten, sports shop after that,
Toys for all the kiddies and don't forget the cat.

Dashing thru the crowds, people everywhere,
Up and down the aisles, sneezing in my hair.
There's so much to choose, there's so much to see.
Wonder if what I got you cost more'n what you got me.

Chorus
Shopping Bells, Jingle Bells, will they never stop,
I've been shopping all week long and I'm about to drop.
Ring them bells somewhere else far away from here,
Ain't it really lucky Christmas comes but once a year?

Verse
Wrap your presents nice, Pretty bows that shine,
Take them out to mail, You're gonna wait in line.
Find your way back home, and if you're like me,
Maybe on the twenty-fourth, You'll get to trim the tree.

Chorus
Jingle Bells, Shopping Bells, Jingle dear Saint Nick,
Got a hundred envelopes I'm gonna have to lick, "yick"
Shopping Bells, Jingle Bells, my fingers all have cramps,
And to really top it off, I just ran out of stamps.

Chorus
Jingle Bells, Shopping Bells, ringing in my ear,
I'll be broke 'till Easter time just like I was last year.
Shopping Bells, Jingle Bells, a few more days and then,
When I see the children smile, I'll do it all again.

THE GIFT OF GOD

There was seen a radiance
Glowing one night
Near the little maiden Mary
In blue and white.

"Lilies are not fairer,
"Roses more red,
Than the Child she sings to slumber,"
An angel said.

So the shepherds ventured
Through the white cold,
And their eyes beheld the Infant,
An hour old.

Long they gazed and wondered,
Awkward in awe,
At the paramount perfection
Within their straw.

"Diamonds are but trifles!
"Rubies no gem!"
Cried the hearts that slaved for pittance
Near Bethlehem.

So it was forever,
After the night
When the little maiden Mary
Wore blue and white.

- Mary Fabyan Windeatt -
Robert, Cyril.
Our Lady's Praise in Poetry.
New York: Marist Press, 1944

Merry CHRISTmas!

Sending warm greetings from Georgia to each one of y'all. Hope you are enjoying time with your loved ones. My daughter and her fiance will be here tomorrow night. Yippee! See y'all in the New Year!

Sasso update: his skin graft didn't do very well - only a small part of the graft lived - so we are back to having a large open wound that needs to close on its own quite a bit before the vet can stitch it up. Poor kitty has been through so much. But his personality is almost back to normal. He's such a "whiney feliney" but I love him! hahahaha
