(((GeeBee))), finally I am able to listen to your Christmas tunes, to Alan Jackson right now:

"Let it Be Christmas"

Let it be Christmas everywhere
In the hearts of all people both near and afar
Christmas everywhere
Feel the love of the season wherever you are
On the small country roads lined with green mistletoe
Big city streets where a thousand lights glow

Let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let every heart sing let every bell ring
The story of hope and joy and peace
And let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let anger and fear and hate disappear
Let there be love that lasts through the year
And let it be Christmas
Christmas everywhere

Let it be Christmas everywhere
With the gold and the silver, the green and the red
Christmas everywhere
In the smiles of all children asleep in their beds
In the eyes of young babies their first fallen snow
Elderlys' memories that never grow old

Let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let every heart sing let every bell ring
The story of hope and joy and peace
And let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let anger and fear and hate disappear
Let there be love that lasts through the year
And let it be Christmas
Christmas everywhere

Let it be Christmas everywhere
In the songs that we sing and the gifts that we bring
Christmas everywhere
In what this day means and what we believe
From the sandy white beaches where blue water rolls
Snow covered mountains and valleys below

Let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let every heart sing let every bell ring
The story of hope and joy and peace
And let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let anger and fear and hate disappear
Let there be love that lasts through the year
And let it be Christmas
Christmas everywhere
Christmas everywhere
Christmas everywhere

Good evening, LadyJ.
Thank you for that fun Yeats poem.

I enjoy the poems that you and Conor have been posting.
For some reason, I haven't been posting many poems.
That will be my New Year's resolution ... to post more poems and potpourri.

Have a wonderful evening.

Hey, Lady, Great Wear Red FRiday Graphic.

I think Jaycee will enjoy your fun ladies. Thank you.

It is truly my pleasure, my mission and I look forward to posting Gods word everyday! I am so happy you enjoy them.

[The Mayor]

Thank you Amy, Merry Christmas.

Constitutiongirl, Welcome to Amy’s Place.

I hope you come back again soon and often.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Hmmm .... haven’t seen him for awhile except in my mailbox. He says he will stop by one of these days. Maybe he will come by with Christmas Greetings.

I finally caught up here - what a gorgeous collection of things to bring smiles & tears. The beautiful graphic creations from Billie, Lori, luv, meg are great. The fun & outrageous stuff from lady jag are a HOOT - WHERE DO YOU FIND THOSE GREAT THINGS?

Pet pix always wonderful. Yesterday was the three year anniversary of Oliver's death. I walked with my two & friend John and his two for about 2 hours(yes it was VERY cold) and all four dogs had no hesitancy in going in water.

Put on the Christmas party for my Man to Man cancer support group Thursday. A lot of work alone. Last year had 2 helpers - but Mike the one facilitator moved to South Dakota this summer & Bill (Wheelbarrow) has a dislocated shoulder. So I literally did it SINGLE-HANDEDLY! 7 weeks with the cast & with luck cast off next week!

Keep warm & happy everyone & close tothe true spirit of Christmas while enjoying the funof the secular,p.

UPDATE ON DAD
Yesterday they put a drip up to get some fluids in but told me to continue to encourage him to drink. Today hopefully he will be well enough after getting more fluids in to sit in the chair for a couple of hours - staff permitting on a Saturday so near to Christmas.

I am about to go up to the hospital now I will be taking a few bits to hopefully stimulate his appetite

Prayers that he will be well enough to sit in the chair and that the fluids have helped catch up the lost few days due to dehydration. Dolly can you pass message to others on FR.

Lovely, Conor! (Thats what its all about)..thank you.

[jaycee]

Precious cat, Amy!

[jaycee]

This is wonderful, Dita! I haven’t read it before. Thanks!

[jaycee]

Thank you, Dita, now I could take that kitty in my house in a second. I loved it.

[jaycee]

This is very nice, L. J....I frankly left my bike at home today as it was freezing...LOL~~

We had a wonderful Red Hat Christmas Party today! Lots of laughing, chattering, eating, exchanging gifts, etc. It was really nice today. The weather was freezing though. But we didn’t get the snow that was predicted.

That is a beautiful and cozy fireplace graphic, Amy...

Santa paws, just adorable!
