Sounds like one o' them Christmas Corona commercials...like the one with the lit-up palm tree...
Mornin'
Gots to go get Jr. up for rehearsals. I don't have to be there until this afternoon, but he's there all morning.
Good Morning, Hoddit Hole!
It's Saturday after Thanksgiving...I feel a trip to the mall (the one with the theater, for National Treasure) coming on.
I want to find a nativity set I saw last year and hope is reissued...all very traditional, except the people are all racially diverse American children (and a baby or large doll) in costume like a well-done church play.
Where's my coffee, anyway?
'Morning. Gots coffee but we're all out of breakfast pie.
Had nuked hot wings for brekkie, I did...
Cue "Eww"...
I...ahem...fired up the toaster and lived to tell the tale. :)
RUN AWAY!!!
Eeeekkk!!!
Good Morning - Rained most of the night and all the snow is gone (insert happy face gif). But the once leafless yard is now leaf infested.
Gypsygirl has been walked and all is well in our corner of the shire. Rain has departed but a bit of the wind remains.
We'll be heading to attic for the Christmas stuff today - tree, lights, candle lights for the windows, ornaments and garlands. We may need a new wreath.
Yesterday I saw a sign by a secluded country driveway, "Woody End"...a Shire name, IIRC.
The hilly country around could credibly include street signs for "Bagshot Row", "Bag End" etc.
And forth I go on today's adventures.
All is also well in the west farthing... the horses have been fed and turned out, and it is foggy and still here.
Wow...everyone's already getting Christmas stuff up???? I must confess I have slowly been pulling stuff out myself. First Thanksgiving and Christmas in the new house!
Love you guys!
Good afternoon! Barely.
I'm kinda sorta trying to do some flyladying around here, but it's not really happening. Also I'm out of some cleaning supplies...which really means I *should* go to Wal-mart...but I refuse to even attempt that until after eight thirty at night, this time of year. I have a hard enough time going there during regular weekend crowds! I just don't handle crowds well, I guess. If I don't go in there with a written list and try to keep tunnel vision going so I just get what I need and get out, I end up getting all panicky and upset. *shudder* Don't like crowds. Don't like 'em at all.
I need to get back into writing my little sister's story! Hard to adjust to princesses and goblins and dragons after my rather boring NaNo story...
Heh...oops...I put myself in the ping list.
I haven't had enough coffee today, I guess.
And now...I'm talking to myself.
Good day!
I'm going to finish my story today, I think. Unless I do homework instead.
I am exactly the same way with crowds. Heck, I have enough trouble with malls on weekends during the normal times. Right now... shudder.
I don't do malls.
The Mall is where The Toaster usually comes from, you know...
The Mall...the Evil Empire where the Overtoaster originated.
