Merry Christmas!
I am feeling human again although coming down from painkillers. Getting ready to make gingerbread houses with the kids and listening to the Christmas mix Hec made for me a few years ago.
I'm glad you're feeling better, Cash.
We got an unexpected inch of snow here tonight. It looks lovely. In about 10 minutes well be heading out to see Les Mis.
It's snowing here too!
Glad to hear it, Cash.
Guess who can't listen to Christmas music tonight? Me!
At EM's house. She got rid of her CD player when she got her iPod, and then her iPod died. She's getting a new one from Emmett tomorrow (which I loaded with Christmas music) but she won't get it until tomorrow.
We've already watched Elf and nibbled our way through an antipasti tray. Dinner in a couple. Matilda's wound up, Emmett's head first into electronics and JZ's hiding in a book.
We've misplaced a box of ornaminks: the stuffed calico ones I made, one of H's velvet beaded ones, the flocked paper tin soldier, angel, and gnome on skis from the Christkindl's Markt in Nurnberg, the Santa hats for Dougal and Truman bears, and most woeful of all, the candle clips. I have the candles, but they're fruitless without the clips. (No fruit for Bev).
Still, everything's done, the teevee is pretending it's a fireplace, and the local fire department just drove slowly down the street serenading us with Vaughn Monroe and Bing Crosby carols over the PA--cheesy as hell, but I have to admit it's charming, too. I'm about to succumb to Christmas schmoop, oh noes. I'm still winning on LDB, though. If I get to midnight, what do I win?
Merry Christmas Eve, everybody!
Hey Bev, I found the Santa hats for Dougal and Truman bears.
My eldest has also been head first into electronics, as today is his bday, so he got a new ds3d and Starcraft. Parents just departed back to the hotel, we're watching A Charlie Brown Xmas and younger nephew is cuddling with mom. Soon they need to go to bed so we can wrap all the "Santa" presents(my sil's thing, but she's off her game this year.) And I thought I was done!
Aww, that sounds great, Bev. Schmoop away!
Just bought tickets for The Hobbit for tomorrow. Yay, Peter Jackson Christmas tradition! Without bonus heart attack!
