A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....12-23, 24, 25, 26-05....Home for the Holidays
Mama_Bear

Posted on 12/23/2005 12:04:48 AM PST by Mama_Bear



Oh, there's no place like
home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
When you pine for the sunshine
Of a friendly face
For the holidays, you can't beat
Home, sweet home

I met a man who lives in Tennessee
And he was headin' for Pennsylvania
And some home made pumpkin pie
From Pennsylvania folks a travelin' down
To Dixie's sunny shore
From Atlantic to Pacific, gee
The traffic is terrific

Oh there's no place like home
For the holidays, 'cause no matter
How far away you roam
If you want to be happy in a million ways
For the holidays, you can't beat
Home, sweet home.

Hi Marissa. Look at you, you look wonderful in that picture standing beside Santa, and I like your new sig, it's very nice.

Merry Christmas to you too, and say hello to your granny for me.

A prayer request mum is critically ill in hospital basically I am awaiting a phone call to go up there.

I have been up there most of the day, she has a severe infection and is very dehydrated.

Please pray for strength for me and dad at this time, sorry to post this at this time of the year but I know many of you have followed mum's story over the past few months.

Two birthdays on Free Republic!
You're such an old-timer I'd say,
That you could join us up here on the porch,
In the rocking chairs today!

Now maybe it seems old-fashioned,
And just a bit calm for your group,
But amid all the squeaks, and the pops and the creaks,
We get to hear the best scoop!

Of course, I know that you're busy,
You have all those presents to wrap!
But I'd like to repeat, if you'd like, take a seat,
And you won't have to lie down for a nap!

Thank you Victoria.
Getting ready to head out to the inlaws for the yearly tradition, probably won't be back till the morning for coffee, then Church then relaxing.

God Bless
