My dd walked outside this morning and screamed 'snow'. The frost was so thick it had turned our entire yard white. :snowwow: I'm thankful that we harvested our sage and other herbs and put them in the drying rack this weekend. There's nothing better for Thanksgiving and Christmas cooking. :scene:

Did anyone get a check from the Walmart/Netflix class action settlement? I did. Found money goes straight to the Christmas fund. :shop: :shop: :shop:

No, but it makes me want to look into it. I agree, found money goes straight to the Christmas fund.

It is so hard to believe that in only 2 weeks it will be Thabksgiving! I love this time of year. It is an extension of why I love Christmas so much!

Welcome back Kiwidogy! Since you have been away you might have missed the Christmas card offer. Some of us have decided to exchange cards this year. If you would like a card from Sweden, send your address to jwlundgren@gmail.com. Reciprocation is absolutely not required. :pole: :elfgrin:

Woohoo! My parents sent me a website for Texas Unclaimed Property, I actually have $54 from a bank account I had forgotten. Woohoo! It goes to my US address, but extra money is always good for Christmas or anytime!

Finished up the youngest daughters Christmas list yesterday. Still have three more kids to go. Doing most of my shopping online this year, just don't have it in me to go to the stores and hear how stressful Christmas is, to me if it is stressful then you are doing it wrong. :smilecc:

Yesterday I broke a tooth. Today I got a temporary crown.
No Christmas fun.

Image
But, I am very thankful that I'm able to receive such great dental care. Many go without.

Wow, a Thanksgiving dinner theatre sounds like loads of Christmas fun! :smilecc: :scene: :elfgrin:


We go on Christmas evening here as well and we will see " A Wonderful Life"
on T-day we see ' Plaid Tidings" :smilecc:

I'm watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas on the dvr. I remember when you used to have to wait all year to watch it. I was glued to the tv when it came on. :grinch:
