hey good morning... just read the Times review.. the Opera is a HIT.. hmmmm must write the sequel.. part 29..

"it was a dark and stormy night.. a good night for string cheese that Crown had ordered stricken from the shispering pines menu... causing great anger and hurt among the paus du lux crowd..."

ohhhh the passion..

HI YA JAY DUDE

I hope it was laughing cow string cheese I really like them! Oh yes, I've special ordered my Christmas winter tights for the "Christmas Opera Ballet of 2008". They are very pretty and sparkle and will allow me to fly in the air like Peter Pan unless Binger casts me as Carl's Barista which means I'll
be "grounded" at Starbucks!

PS Hoss and Little Joe are back at the Ponderosa trying to figure out if
they can make it on time to "The Little House on The Prairie" for Christmas
Dinner! The days are flying by, hope everyone is almost
ready for the big day.....Scissors and tape are flying everywhere as I
attempt to finish wrapping all the goodies.

:hello: Quick in and quick out my Christmas wacko friends!

I have to get ready for work and tonight I'll be busy packing.

Not sure if I'll be able to connect with y'all over Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, but if I can sneak onto one of the laptops, you know I will.

Sweet Christmas Dreams!

Just a quick good morning before heading off to work.
Tomorrow we are only open until 2. We are all bringing in food (we won't have many customers) and we plan to munch and relax and enjoy the day.
My daughter gets done at 6, and I will pick her and my son up to bring them to the house.
Tonight the hubby and I are going out to eat and then last minute shopping. (I love last minute shopping, to be honest. I love the hustle and bustle-I'm crazy, I guess.)
Merry Christmas!

Good Morning, barely pre-Christmas friends!

Getting VERY close now.
Let's check:
Today is Day 41 of our Christmas Season.
Days to Christmas Day: 2 (That's the same as day-after-tomorrow, folks!!)

Cold here again with the temp just below freezing.
It should warm up nicely starting tomorrow, though.

Well, the family is here and it looks like a busy day. Gotta run!

Have a Terrific Tuesday, Everyone!
Hold on tight as we sail on into Christmas!!

Good Morning, Christmas Friends!!!

Any Christmas stories to share?

How about airline travel? Two of my relatives were flying to different cities this weekend, from different cities. No bad weather for them in takeoff cities or in destination cities. After 3-4 hour delays, both of their flights were cancelled and they were sent home to try another day. Why? Because, in both cases, their flight crews could not get out of yet two more different cities to get to the departure cities.

A third person was flying from NYC to Denver - to change planes for San Francisco. No bad weather in any cities. However - when the non-stop plane from Denver to San Francisco, was rolling down the runway, the PA system came on to announce that this was not a non-stop flight to SF after all. Instead, they would fly to Salt Lake City, to drop off 60 passengers whose flight had been cancelled because it wasn't very full. And then eventually, they would fly from Salt Lake City to San Francisco. Does it seem to you that our airplane system is having a wee bit of difficulty?

What do you think?

 

[SparkleNana]

Are you running around a lot today? A little? Not at all?

Speaking of the weather and travel, my sister lives in Portland, OR, they'e gotten hit with their worst storm since 1980, and prior to that it was 1916! It was almost at a standstill yesterday, but she did make it into work today.

Her son lives in Seattle WA, and was hoping to come down for Christmas, for the first time in several years, but not sure now if he'll be able to get down. Seattle got hit hard too.

Here's praying for safe Christmas travel for everyone out there!
