Hi well I guess I should update something here it has been a week.
How are you doing with your Christmas preparations? This is the month to get it done
Here, I think I will finally, in so many years, be on time and not stressed at the last moment.
Tomorrow I am going to do some shopping and get everything sewn up. really. no more delays.
We are not a big spender family and we do not buy huge amounts of stuff.
That is just crazy and nuts. We are neither.
This week-end I am preparing to slave away at the Christmas cards, get them all done. By Monday my hands will have fallen off, but I will somehow drive out to the rink and skate. Wednesday I am going to a PARTY! yay okay… actually it is just us skate peeps going to a mexican food restaurant *sigh* but still woooo hoooohere is my tree. I took this with Photobooth!!
I still have to put the decorations on.
(yes, my nose is huge and I have no eyebrows shuddup, look at the perdy tree)
So, I am behaving and I hope you are too.
The weather here has been great, balmy 50 degrees! . . . raining
I have to run now and do a zillion things, then do a zillion more things.
Be happy. I YAM.
Christmas waves a magic wand over this world,
and behold,
everything is softer
and more beautiful.

You are SO ahead of me! You have the cool swirly ribbon! I always think that is pretty but actually I suspect I have too many ornaments to use it.
Enjoy your party!
You have eyebrows. I can see them and they are raised because you are being SillyParsleyRosemary!
Your tree looks pretty with the colorful lights and the big angel on top!
I have to do my Christmas cards too. Well, first I have to buy them. I am slow.
In more ways than one! heeheehee
Party with good Mexican food sounds good to me!! Si!!!
Why do you say your nose is huge , Rosemary? it is not ! I even will say it is charming !!!
I am glad to see your time is well planned including all the next week .
You should say it is your birthday next Monday . I bet I will forget it
. Please warn me again !!
Love
Michel
And thanks for your kind birthday wishes for Janine .
No..your nose is not huge at all. Silly girl.
We don’t spend a lot of money either. I think I have most of our shopping done. Will get some stocking stuffers.
I need to get those catnip toys sewed up so they have a chance to play with them several days before they have to go to the vet…I think I’d better get busy fast on that.
I love your tree, it’s very festive. I prefer an angel on top too.
Very nice. I have yet to do a thing around here. I’m so lazy!
first I love your ice skating animals
then that last shot of an old christmas card and your tree is pretty.
you are brave to get such close ups of yourself. I always think I look bad but then in 5years I look at the same photo and think,”man,was I ever cute.”
I wish I could take my dogs to sit on santa’s lap but hubby is afraid one of them will bite him and sue us. I said,”even at Pet Smart?”
Good to hear from you. I still have much to do! cards and a few shopping things…and the tree!!! Oh my!
I rarely read your posts and not walk away with a smile on my face!
I hope the holidays were awesome, I’m personally thankful for you this year!

Yes, close ups are frightening but … I just don’t care anymore
and I am stuck with this silly face so I am just going to embrace getting old and funny looking. I am learning not to scream when I look in the mirror…. still working on that…
I located two yard ornaments yesterday in the shed. That’s the extent of my holiday preparations thus far. When you get finished there, I’d be glad to pay you to come here and help with mine!
I love your happy face!!!
