er... most = post.
The numbers are high because that list was pull from my larger list of 'rules to live by'.
I've always liked the "Overlord's Daughter" list best of all the knockoffs. For a while I had the Overlord List posted on my wall. I don't right now because I need a bulletin board.
Do they have a list for Evil OverToasters?
Get a plant sitter. Someone who will be there (in city) to water it while you are gone. You could drop it off instead of letting someone else have entry to your apartment.
All my friends are going home for Christmas too. Maybe one of the neighbors... not the ones who smoke, though...
yuck! Yeah, smoker not-so-good.
Doubt spiderplant would appreciate tobacco. And it would smell odd when I got it back too.
The clouds are setting in. I really hope it will hurry up and rain and get it overwith. Tomorrow is the Christmas parade, and elf-boy will be able to be in it if it has quit raining by 1pm.
just another flyby by me
Fedora, you have email
Sounds like the set director's instructions for the climactic scene of Death Stalks Us All (1937; Bela Lugosi, Lon Chaney, Boris Karloff, Claude Rains, Basil Rathbone, and Cedric Hardwicke as "The Curator")
Had there been such a thing...
On show weekends, we don't do Sunday morning church. After being there for 14+ hours yesterday and having to head back for three shows this afternoon, it'sa bit much. Pastor even tells us "you are absolved from guilt, sleep in."
We're supposed to finish the tree this morning. I've been up for about an hour and I just heard Nana and Luke up.
The show is going really well. The message is clear and most of the technical bumps have been worked out.
Jr. cut his foot on stage yesterday morning. He's barefoot in the Biblical scene. So we bandaged him up and I gave him my sandals to wear for the other three shows. I've got an old pair I'll take today. It was a pretty nasty gash, but he went on and finished the scene.
Jesus wasn't happy last night. It weren't really a "Silent Night" at the manger.
Nana came with two of the other daughters. Luke and the nephews went with them. She's doing amazingly well. As she says, she needs to build her strength up. That's understandable. But at least she's moving.
Absolute best thing that happened yesterday - Actor playing Santa goes out in the audience for the pre-show and talks with all the kids. Of course he knows a lot of them.
As he makes his exit during the actual show he's walking down the center aisle and he says "And I'll see you on Christmas Eve when you're fast asleep."
Yesterday, he walks down the aisle and pointed directly at Luke and said "And I'll see you Luke, on Christmas Eve when you're fast asleep."
It was pure magic.
Wonderful!
Good morning, I am the only one up... I'm about to go geed ponies breakfast.
Today we go to the beach house to make lefse.
How do you geed a pony?
Good morning!
Interesting read, as always, Corin! Glad it's going well - and Luke's moment was cool!
Hair...I've had lefse...I like lefse...but I know very little about the traditions surrounding it and don't know why it would be made ahead of time...if it's being made ahead of time. My Dad's family did a lot of the Norwegian traditions, but that was mostly the generation before him and it's all been lost. Wanna tell us about it? ;-)
It depends on whether or not I have had enough coffee!
I think it's the opposite of hawd.
Based on my reading of Little House on the Prairie or one of 'em books.
It's made ahead of time because it is a major production that takes up all the hands and counter space in the kitchen, and it keeps well.
I'll take pictures today, explain the traditions best I can and post it tonight ;~D
Cool! Thanks!
You know my deep and abiding interest in all things food! ;-)
OK, time to get ready for church. See y'all later!
