One of my favorite new decorations this year is my Charlie Brown Christmas tree. It's so simple but a nice reminder of the true meaning of Christmas. :rabstar:

Our weather forecast is giving us a chance of frozen precipitation late tonight. It's going to be really warm today with a cold front dropping temps significantly this afternoon. It'll definetly feel like Christmas. :snowwow: :snowhappy2:

I think there are more houses decorated for Christmas this year in our area than any other year I can remember.

I am very lonely at work today. A lot of people took the day off. There's even one guy that saved a bunch of his vacation and is off thru the Christmas holiday until Jan 2.

Somehow the sweet little outside kitten we got this summer has weasled her way into being a big ol house cat. I was really worried about my decorations but the only thing she really terrorizes is our Christmas tree. She plays a fun game of watch me bat these ornaments off the tree and see how long it takes that lady to get them all picked up and hung back on it. :thumbs:

Needless to say this is not a good year to display my vintage glass Christmas ornaments. :orn1:

That's awesome because I swear there are less decorated here. It's like everyone's Christmas Spirit level is set at bah humbug. :elfgrin:

The temperature is going to be in the 60s and might reach 70 before it drops between 30-40 degrees to bring us the possibility of frozen stuff overnight. The ground should be too warm for much to stick. Although I wouldn't mind seeing some Christmas snowflakes. :flake: :flake: :flake:
