MERRY CHRISTMAS, Everyone!

Hugs to all, and thanks for the pings!

I haven’t been ignoring y’all—promise! LOL

Finished up some sewing and the wrapping, both my sisters came with their kids, my mom came, #2 son’s gfriend and we baked all day yest. Had the 2 year old gbaby all day amongst all that. He absolutely adores the month old nephew. The only time that baby was horizontal was when he was getting his diaper changed! I put on a big roast in the crockpot/carrots and potatoes when I got up so we didn’t have to worry about cooking supper while the kitchen was a disaster. I even made cheese biscuits. :) Good thing I’m not off much! We’d all be big as houses.

Not to be stupid, but I tried to post my ornament and I couldn’t make it work. Thanks, anyway, Billie! It’s perfect!

Hope y’all have a safe and happy holiday!

Merry Christmas, Fewz. I still have a head cold but am feeling so much better. I’m no longer fighting exhaustion.

Dreams in Flight

Santa came to me one night, when I had gone to bed.
A time when I should have had some sugar plums in my head.
I was pretty little then, I knew not what to think,
I didn’t really disbelieve, but I was on the brink.

I couldn’t see how reindeer could have figured how to fly,
Unless they had the dreams that caused my brother and I to try.
An old bedsheet that had gotten a bit too tattered and too worn,
Some colors like a comic-book and a super-hero was born!

Oh, yes, we tried! But somehow, all our hopes kept getting dashed,
And all the schemes that didn’t work, just ended being trashed.
The Air Force had just opened up the realm of wild blue yonder,
And seeing clouds still makes me pause, still makes me smile and ponder.

Whatever would have happened, if I had flown away?
Would living them have caused the death, of all my dreams that day?
If I had flown just as I wished, succeeding in my schemes,
Would I be now, this grown-up boy who still flies off in dreams?

I was trying to use a reduced size YouTube embed as a television set in a cartoon. I had not thought of defining a table the size of the cartoon and use the cartoon as the table background. Then place the embed in the upper right hand corner of a cell or lower left hand corner depending on how the cell is vertically aligned and using the cell width and height to position it anywhere on the cartoon. I have tried different screen and page text size settings and so far it works for everything that I have tried. I think it will always display correctly.
