Have a good night Sugar!
Keeping your brother in my prayers. Sending hugs your way.
I love the snow but I sure don't like to drive in it. And I hate the ice! Keeping you in my thoughts, be careful

zoinks!!!!
I will keep her in my thoughts.
Good evening!
I decided to run to Kohl's after dinner because I had a $10 coupon that was about to expire. I put it towards a new Keepsake ornament since they carry some there. They had 50% off a lot of Christmas decor. Great deals but I still have a lot of shopping to do for the girls so I had to force myself to leave. I'm going to try and read for a little while, hopefully I won't fall asleep with the book in my hands like I usually do. I hope everyone had a nice day, enjoy the rest of the evening.
Goodnight & sweet dreams!

That DOES happen! I have a pretty good variety, though, plus some unusual songs that we've accumulated through the years. Our most recent favorite is a track I bought last year that is a mashup of Stars and Stripes Forever and various Christmas tunes. It's brilliant!
Awesome!!!
He is in my thoughts.
Great purchase, HMG!

Good evening,
Finally, a day that wasn't too bad at work. I actually left on time for a change. Day off tomorrow, everyone has it off tomorrow due to the Veteran's Day observance. We may go out and do something, just don't know yet.
I finally started working on the first room to get decorating on it. I moved all the furniture to get ready for the tree. Hopefully get all the lights up in there tomorrow. Maybe get the tree up too?!!!
I hope you all had a good Monday.
Good night, everyone.

Special Post Day #4
"So the legend of Saint Nicholas is a lovely and delectable myth, the last living relic of the vanishing world of dreams. The fairies are gone. No little children or maidens watch any longer through the ardent summer nights to catch some echo of the songs. The witches are gone...Santa Claus alone still lingers with us. For Heaven's sake, let us keep him as long as we can.
There are some excellent people who are scrupulous about deceiving their children with such legendary nonsense. They are mistaken. The children learn to see soon enough, too clearly and too well, or to think they do. Ah, leave them at least one thrill of passionate mystery that may linger with them when the years begin to grow too plain and dull and bare. After all, in this universe of ignorance, anything may be true, even our dreams."-Gamaliel Bradford 1925
We are now two days away from the most magical time of the year, a time we all look forward to starting December 26 the year before. As our friend Ballcoach so eloquently put it, "Santa Claus is real."
In this season we have been looking forward to, I am a little hesitant to go through it as I usually do. My oldest is 9 years old, and I worry that this may be the last year that Santa Claus may exist for him. He was very skeptical last year, and a lot of questions were beginning to come. He would ask very vague questions, and we would answer how we could without ruining it for him. He wants to believe, you can see it, but I have a feeling that peer pressure is getting to him, and we will be telling him the everything sooner rather than later.
So this year let the magic flow, let Santa be the big guy to the children for as long as you can. This magic from my youth has made me such a lover of Christmas throughout my life that I want my kids to have that same feeling that I still get, the smile I get as Christmas gets closer. That feeling that fills your heart during this time of year. The warm smiles from strangers. The anticipation of Christmas morning that makes it so hard to fall asleep, and wakes you up before the sun comes up. Christmastime is nearly upon us, the build up of the season is culminating, get the decorations out, get the lights out. Make some cookies, and eat them as Santa would. Most of all share it with your loved ones.
Make the most of this season, enjoy it, and try not to let it go too fast. I look forward to celebrating this time of year with all of you again.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
