Christmas Countdown - 2008

[jollyhelperelf01]

I can not believe how behind I had gotten.

YAY!!! The Season is here!!

Challenge of today: To put up the tree, or not to put up the tree?

It is just as relevant as December 25th being chosen for Christmas. It was agreed upon years ago and has become tradition.

If you're looking for some official pronouncement, here -- I'll make it:

Be it known herewith, henceforth and forever that the official start of the Christmas season begins on said date of 13 November and the countdown to such is led by the noble, righteous, and incurably merry Crown. He, and his minions, are hereby certified, notorized, authorized, dignified and hopefully not euthanized within these precincts to celebrate said season with all manner of mirth, witty reparte, wry observation, good humor and poignant repose.

This I declare by the authority vested in me as the domain proprietor of the only surviving Christmas portal dating back to the 20th Century and the owner of the largest, brightest, merriest, cheeriest and doggone Christmasiest website in the world.

So let it be written, so let it be done.

Hallelujah, holy sh*t -- where's the tylenol?

Wow, Jeff!
I am both honored and humbled.

Besides - Carl can't wait any longer than November 13th! I'm not sure if that was the date the camels started following the star..... but it is a very important date for Carl. Personally, if Carl is happy.... then I am happy.

Carl is happy, Sparkle.

(He was getting a little nervous but Jeff's pronouncemet eased his mind)

I did not get registered to post until this morning so I missed all of the countdown posting lastnight. However I was up watching all of your posts!

So today for the 13th I made four of my Christmas cards and got out my Christmas childrens books that I always have in a nice basket for under the tree!!!


MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well since I wasn't posting it was quick for me to read through them---I got quite a few laughs--I didn't catch it though what Jay meant about Janna hitting on him-saying she was waiting for her hubby to tell her he was going to bed---I didn't get it until Jay explained it later---It was a funny time!!

Ooops. Sorry. The heat of the moment got the best of me, I suppose. Hope he/she will forgive me. I meant it, honestly, like the term "all men created equal" (which is especially true in really cold weather, by the way).

 

[Jeff Westover]

Did I just say what I think I said?

Gotta be the elixir of Nyquil, Red Bull and Kerosene I just consumed. I'm going to get on a plane now and try to avoid drilling holes in the top of my head.

Happy Birthday, Ms. Speedy Elf!!!
We are all so glad you were born!!!! Hope all your birthday wishes come true!!!
And many more birthdays to you also!! I am not sure if it is the 14th or the 15th but the 14th is also National Teddy Bear day!! I saw that on a floral calendar once.
All the best and lots of magic!!

I spent one Christmas in Ca. I was 13 or 14 years old and it was awful No snow, and just the most um-christmasy place I have ever been. There are many beautiful things about CA. but I have always sworn that is one state I would NEVER live in again.

Good evening friends. Stoppin' in to say hello to everyone. Hi winds here this evening and cold. We had an odd day weather wise here. Blue skies one minute, dark the next, rain for a second and even a little hail. Have a good one!cheesy
