Whew.... I'm s'glad to see you. I've finished all the preparations and now I have loads of time to relax and enjoy the final lap of parties and dinners and present opening. LOL .... I love all the boxes from UPS, FED EX, etc. its like Christmas everyday.

Dang, what bad timing. I finally have someone to talk with and I have to get dressed for a party.
are you being mean to me ? :(
sharky, I don't have time to play Hide n Seek.... I really need to go in just a few minutes.
:-)
So you're done with preparation? amazing.
You are my hero....the lady who saved the thread....the Southern Belle who makes Catpuppy gasp.
Never.
yea ! Yes ! Everything is done and the weather is turning nice again. Its supposed to be a beautiful weekend.
Well, now I understand that you weren't being mean but for a moment there... I just didn't know what to think. :)
I love it when catpuppy does that "gasping" thing LOL .. Ringy does too.
Please forgive me, this is not meanness but we are about to have company and LL will skin me (and rightfully so) if I don't go help.
Hope to catch you tomorrow.
Bye for now.....be good.
I understand... I have to get out of here too. :) Love to LL, have a lovely evening :)

Evening, Resty. I got my new puter today. It's very large and black, lol. I will start transferring files tomorrow. Wish me luck. ;)
Hi Darlin. Noooooooooo.. we are having a nice quiet weekend. I'm already partied out. We're not youngsters like you. I crave the "do nothings" for the next few days.
You go party for me, ok? Have loads of fun. Been there, done that.
Smooooooooooooooooch... You're quite a guy, Westy. Don't give up, you're doing wonderfully. We're all with you, big guy.
Thanks for your pics every night. They are all lovely, and we enjoy your posting them.
Yeppie I hope to grow into my new one...
it like having all these bells whisles an stuck in a rut!
LOL
I know you are just going to love all the great things the new ones have to offer!
hey! we're over here now!!
Sometimes it's hard to keep up.
Well Darlin', the first day of our celebration is Noche Buena, the evening before Christmas, which I am sure is celebrated all over the Spanish speaking world.
Noche Buena and Christmas day allows families a day with each side of the family tree. In our case the family will celebrate with the husbands' families for Noche Buena - so we seven single ones will celebrate by ourselves.
The most important thing about Noche Buena is the food, which in our part of the world means Marisco (shell fish), lobsters clams shrimps etc. as one of the plates. My daughter will be making the fish soup to start, then second plate will be seafood and rice, made by two of the guys. This is followed by the meat course and lots of mouth watering postres.
To your horror all this excess will start at about 10pm. and go on until about 2am., in preparation for the Christmas dinner, when we will have seventeen people.
I will try and take some food pics.
Merry Christmas to everyone.
