CHRISTMAS!!!

I never have either...I think most of us never have, never willThat's an easy question for me, I enjoy the Halloween special but the Christmas special is by far my favorite. Nothing compares to Linus quoting from Luke 2:8-14 explaining what Christmas is all about.
I was 6 when the Great Pumpkin first aired and 7 when Charlie Brown Christmas first aired. My wife laughs at me but I haven't missed a year watching them and Rudolph.
They always have the news on. I like to catch up on the news but I don't need to watch it all day. So shortly after they walked out the door, I changed the channel!![]()
Merry Afternoon all,
I managed to pick up some Halloween candy today. I am not sure how long it will last as it is already calling to me. What's wrong with me! I don't usually eat sweets but it's always the same every halloween. It's like a candy spell has been cast upon me!
I am having a festive mince pie with a ginderbread tea before I go pick up the boys. I am not all that into them but I like to have one especially when they first come out for the season at the bakery.

Have a nice afternoon all.
Thanks, Sam!oh no glad everything is alright now and it isn't yet another unexpected bill!
LOL, it is. But it scared the you know what out of me
I was sitting there, on the couch-in the living room, fireplace on, drinking coffee. When all of a sudden I hear a crash and the fireplace glass had fallen off, landed on the carpet, and it was HOT. So, I was afraid that it would start a fire, laying on the carpet. It was so hot that I had to run & get oven mitts to even lift it. I didn't know if being exposed directly to the gas was dangerous, so I had to wake them up so Adrian could help me get it back on. So, here we are struggling not to burn ourselves, I have coffee all over my work clothes, the floor, etc. It was frustrating & comical!
Har was anxious at first, then brought me her ball, wanting to play!
I have stayed out of the Halloween candy that I bought for trick or treaters so far, but I haven't been very good about staying out of the Rolo's in our pumpkin on the island.Merry Afternoon all,

So fun!I did...I did. Saw both.
Bring it on...Here we go...
Me too!Love it.
Bah ha ha....You channel changing rebel you...
I'm glad you had a nice time with your son. I'm sure the time went entirely too fast!!! Sounds like you had great weather while he was home!!Happy Pines day. Our son went back to college yesterday evening. We enjoyed having him home for his fall break. Always tough to see him leave. As planned, we binge watched the entire 4th season of Longmire on Netflix over the weekend. Hopefully they will renew it for a 5th season.
The weather was nice while he was home. We had a frost every morning. Sadly it is forecast to warm up for a few days.
Have a blessed day.
Wow. So glad it wasn't worse and it ended up being comical.LOL, it is. But it scared the you know what out of me

No, not that I could see. There was smoke or steam coming up from it or the glass, though!How scary!!! I would have freaked out & spilled my coffee everywhere too! YIKES! I'm glad everything was ok. It didn't leave burn marks in your carpet, did it?
I'm sure Har was wondering what in the heck was going on!!! Lol!!

Out of the 3 Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas Charlie Brown's which is your favorite? Good debate...probably should be on a separate thread somewhere. Probably is and I'm just too lazy to check for it.
Thanks, me too.Wow. So glad it wasn't worse and it ended up being comical.
Good Morning, whitney~I enjoy them all, but Linus quoting the Christmas Story puts the Christmas one above the others. I have a Hallmark ornament that is ball ornament with the Peanuts nativity scene on it & the scripture quoted. I got it while DH & I were dating. In the years when we put up our "Hallmark tree", I am very careful with it. It's one of the least expensive ones we have from Hallmark, but one of my favorites!
We missed The Great Pumpkin last night because we were at dinner for a niece's 12th birthday. We have it on DVD, so we'll get to it!
All of my co-workers are at a conference through tomorrow. I'm listening to classic Christmas music & I lit a "winter" scented candle. It smells like burning wood mixed with something I just can't place. I have my coat wrapped around my legs because it's chilly in the office. I'm having myself a Christmassy time while I'm alone!
Awesome! Enjoy!!My neighbor voted for me to keep the Christmas Tree up and suggested certain fall decorations to put on it. That makes 10 votes to keep the tree up! I will manage to drag this poll out until November 1st! Yay!

I would love to have that ornament! One of the best parts of the cartoon along with the ending where they sing around the tree! I can see why that ornament is special to you!I enjoy them all, but Linus quoting the Christmas Story puts the Christmas one above the others.
