Swedes don't understand that in the US, you are sick for aobut a week, 2-3 days of feeling "off", 1-2 days "sick" and 1-2 days recovery. Here you are sick for 3 week. 2 weeks of feeling like "you are getting sick....." before you finally succumb, then a week of recovery. Today I feel like something the cat dragged in. Need to get that Christmas energy back!

I hope you feel better soon my Christmas friend.

:peekleaves2: A cousin from Indy just shared with me that the corn mazes and pumpkin patches are open now! We sold our pumpkins, maze corn bundles, and home made goodies in Autumn too. And the "chuckers" - homemade pumpkin hurlers - are used for free by guests to aim at an old vehicle/made-made object for a prize. Those pumpkins are misshapen, bitten by a predator, or molded so it is more fun than just tossing them.
How I miss Autumn at home, not to mention the glorious leaves dancing to the ground in the cool breezes. :rake:

I miss that so much also my Christmas friend. We may have to change our annual summer trip back to Indiana to a Fall trip.

Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, (ring-a-ling) hear them ring (ting-a-ling)
Soon it will be Christmas day

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear

Silver bells, (silver bells) silver bells (silver bells)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, (ring-a-ling)
Hear them ring, (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of street lights, even stoplights
Blinkin' bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch
This is Santa's big day
And above all this bustle you hear

Silver bells (The corner Santa Claus)
Silver bells (Is busy now because)
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, it fills the winter air
Hear them ring, you hear it everywhere
Soon it will be Christmas day

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks (Silver bells)
Dressed in holiday style (Silver bells)
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas (It's Christmas time in the city)
Children laughing, people passing (Ring-a-ling)
Meeting smile after smile (Hear them ring)
Very soon it will be Christmas day

Corn mazes and pumpkin patches open here in a few weeks. I can't wait. I wish my family had a Christmas tree farm we could visit this year. I'd go for the amazing pictures. :peek:

I wish our town had old fashioned Christmas window displays like they used to. We barely have stores now. :|

I've spent part of my day dealing with health insurance companies. Talk about a Christmas bummer. :grinch:
