Does Sears or JCPenney's still put a Wishbook?


Thanks CC. I liked the M&Ms mugs!

Hi Christmas Crazy
I am not sure about the U.S., but here in Canada The Sears Wish Book is still available. I picked up a copy early last week. :smilecc:

Woke up to thunder and rain this morning. I would much rather fall asleep to it. :| But it is definetly starting to feel like Fall. :peekleaves2: A few leaves are already turning. I think it's due to the extreme heat and drought we had all summer.

I was browsing on Amazon yesterday and found the perfect Christmas gift for my Dad. A dvd collection that he hasn't seen in years. It'll come in handy on those bad weather days when you're trapped inside the house. :pile:

Not sure if this guy will do it again this year, but last year he would post a Christmas Album every day throughout the holiday season. There are 120 albums in the JBJ Archive that you can listen to right now. Lots of favorites.
Check it out here. http://jinglebelljukebox.com :thumbs:

I have been watching online in Sweden. Thank God for technology. I am wearing my snow man t shirt and apron my parents sent from the US, silver candy cane earrings, and listening to the soundtrack of Christmas in August (melancholy Korean drama that really has nothing to do with Christmas, but the music is nice) as I do my morning computer chores. Then I will change to some happy Christmas tunes and bake the chicken for tonight's Christmas in August Pad Thai chicken stir fry with glass noodles, egg rolls, and mango sherbert for dessert. :dinner:

I hope not to have to go out but if I do, I will just tell people it has been so humid this week that I am looking forward to Christmas snow. :snowwow:

Oh, I forgot to tell you that when we returned from our vacation, I had to wear this same T-shirt home due to a kitten "accident". I had taken it for the Christmas in July dinner. I told people at MacDonald´s the same thing. Looking forward to Christmas!

Sung Tan Chuk Ha! Merry Christmas in Korean!

http://www.amazon.com/Christmas-Clouds- ... 797&sr=8-1

There is the link to the movie Christmas in the Clouds, an off beat comedy about a native american ski resort, filmed at the Sundance village. I would love to have the soundtrack, but it does not appear to ever have been released. Now on the hunt for native american christmas music. :whistle:

Remembered today why Christmas in August is usually stir fry. It was SO HUMID, yes in Sweden, this morning. Much better in the evening, we were even able to have our feast on the balcony with Christmas music. Yes, the neighbors think we are weird. :elfgrin:

Watched QVC online, the christmas episode of MacGyver, and Christmas in the Clouds. The mismatch socks were adorable. Have not seen them in Sweden. :shop:
