Decorating? Sounds like your day has been merry...
Thanks, Edge!
It has been! It has been!
I am exhausted, LOL. ! But in a good way ;-) just taking a quick break right now, got to get back to it!
Hope you're enjoying your Saturday, too.
 
Good Afternoon, All! Just stopped in to catch up and get a good Christmas-y feeling. Done and done. It is chilly and windy here in southeast Wisconsin today (46F). I bought my first Christmas present today. I found a neat s'mores maker for my sister who loves s'mores and campfires. I am already ahead this year! Have a great rest of your Saturday. I can't wait to read the special posts starting tomorrow. See you then!
 
HoHoHello my merry chums.

Wanted to share my Yule Oral Ability (it's not a disability when you love Christmas)
Yule Oral Ability
Symptoms May Include:
~Re-reading those same books (etc.) year after year or month after month.
~Keeping a festive journal of plans, gift & decorating ideas along with recipes.
~Counting down the days until Christmas Day arrives (this includes, for many, a new countdown on Boxing Day).
~Talking about Christmas all year long.
~Thinking about Christmas in your head (dwelling in that Christmas closet afraid to tell those around you what you are thinking).
~Recalling Christmases of the past - brought about by someone else’s words, sounds or smells you encounter during the day.
~Music - of a Yule nature - plays in your head or emits from your CD, MP3, iPod, turntable, etc. in the “off season”.
~Others see a pine tree - you see a tree transformed into a Christmas display of lights, ornaments, beads, garland, tinsel or cranberry and popcorn strings.
~ You create scrapbooks, pictoral journals, elaborate yard and/or indoor displays.
~You dream of a white Christmas in June and again in December (even if you live in a climate that never receives snow).
~You nod your head knowingly when you hear a child in a school yard yell “ouch!” after freeing his/her tongue from the frosty flagpole, fence or railing.
~You wear Christmas socks or bells that jingle on your shoes - just because.
~You crave eggnog, hot cocoa and wish you had a fire nearby to roast marshmallows or chestnuts (even if they don’t taste good - bleh).
~You start your letter to Santa early to avoid the Christmas rush.
~The Merry jargon you use is not understood by your family, the general public, and co-workers.
~You have difficulty finding the humour in a joke if it isn’t followed by a jolly HoHoHo.
~You make up festive operas and perform at the Shispering Pines Playhouse where you are served by a three-humped camel that carries eggnog (during the season) or special coffee/tea blends in that middle hump (during the off season).
~You dream of going to the North Pole, meeting Santa, Mrs. Claus, the Elves and Reindeer or helping Santa deliver presents all around the world.

If you have checked off more than five of the above criteria, face it - you are a Christmas Wacko and have Yule Oral Ability. Oh sure, there are those who might call it a Yule Oral Disability, but as long as it’s keeping you jolly all year long, why would you want to look for a cure. So, that’s why this is called Yule Oral Ability rather than Yule Oral Disability.

Feel free to join me in my Yule Oral Ability Support Group - and share your Festive Yulable Moments here anytime.

Have yourself a cool yule-ish kinda day! Keep Merry All Day Long!

Yulable is my new favourite made up word!

Listening to some Christmas OTR---I have so much of it that there is a bunch that I've never heard! Listening to a program from Christmas Eve 1943 that is going around the world to different military installations.

I love OTR Christmas shows. I subscribed to the podcast. Where did you find your shows?

Love it, Auntie!! ❤️
 
Well my special post for Sunday is ready. I'm just gonna post it in the morning. I don't want to change it as I reread it twice, made a few changes and feel like I should leave it as is.
Looking forward to it!
 
Hello everyone. The Peanuts Movie is cute, sweet, innocent fun! We enjoyed it. I hope you all have a great evening.
Glad you guys enjoyed it, bud!
Hope your Master's work is going well, too.
Thinking of you.
