White Christmas, Sung by The Drifters
The other day when BonO wrote the blog about Christmas music. It inspired me to find the video clip of this video that I had seen a couple of years ago.
This song is one of my Favorites that I shared with one of my Favorite Dialysis patients (I used to be a dialysis tech) This lady was very special to me, and I to her. Our birthdays are 6 days apart, mine is the 20th and hers is the 14th of December. People who have birthdays close to Christmas kinda stick together I miss her very much.
We used to play this song at least 3 times while she had her treatment and we would just sing along and have the best time. I still over play this song every year, I love it, as it makes me think of Miss Etta. God rest her soul.
She and I held hands during the 911 ceremonies on TV and wiped away each others tears, she by far was so very special.
That is why I still think of her every time I hear this song.
So for Miss Etta, please play this video a couple times... At least!!!!!

ReplyDeleteGreat Tribute IBB!!!
ReplyDeleteAll my children are still sleeping. All I hear is the dryer, sometimes that is so nice.
Congrats on 1st Iteach! 16 more and you will catch up to our leader Scirish!
ReplyDeleteIBB thank you for the video! I have seen it before but today as I listened to it I had a big smile on my face. I was picturing you and your friend singing along. It was a nice picture. ((HUGS))
Shirley, my winter break is coming up, you never know, I may catch up.
ReplyDeleteHeHeHe
Good morning!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 1st Iteach!!
Hi Shirley!

ReplyDeleteMorning Glories!
ReplyDeleteIteach got first! I also see she is plotting to over throw scrishy! LOL
Ibb Thank you for the video this morning! It put a smile on my face. What a wonderful way to remember your friend!
From Area 51:
Scrishy Happy late Birthday to you!!!!!
J/L you should have let the tree seller know he would not make it to 61 if he kept making statements like that to people! What an idiot. I guess they did not hire him for his customer service skills!
Mo you would be invited to any party! You better show up! Do you hear me?
Tinka hoping your back feels much better today!
Dianne in Denver if I make it to Denver you and I are going drinking and shopping can you imagine?? Denver watch out! LOL
Bon so glad to hear how generous all of your neighbors are! That is fantastic. Anthrax huh? I have read about white powder being sent to Governors across the US is he on that route too? ;)!
Morning Shirley! Morning EBJ!
I will be back, I have to make more coffee and inspect the dusting of snow we got last night.
Happy Sunday!!!

Iteach:
ReplyDeleteCongrats on First!
Shirley:
Love your choice of avatar today, there is def something about blue on a snowman that I love, I also love that you have been changing them everyday.
Bebbi:
Well then its settled you will be Santa Clause, and it is surly ok if you get here late, Santa Clause can come anytime he wants.
Vig:
Thinking of you!
Zona:
happy blue just cause!
Ebj:
Howdy, Hope you have a good day at work.
Mek:
Sounds like a MickeyD's day to me, rain and a bigmac go well together. Don't forget to put a raincoat on your owl.
LynnD:
Plotting to throw Scirishy.. LOL
Mo:
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome to any ole party. Glad you stopped by the nest, I miss ya!
Ibb:
ReplyDeleteI loved your story of Miss Etta, so special how the two of you shared this song. It is quite amazing how someone can leave a impression on us, and give us memories never to be forgotten.
She sounds like such a sweet soul.
Happy Birthday Miss Etta...
Ibb:
ReplyDeleteThank you ever so much for taking the time to chose our SMV and giving us a memory to go along with it..
Scirish:
ReplyDeleteDo you have a hangover?
:O)
Mek:
ReplyDeleteTree top ornament.. LOL
Shirley:
ReplyDeleteI just noticed the yellow in your avator... Perfect!
Gosh, I just hope your snowman does not melt tho!
ReplyDelete:O)
cpgem - good morning... Mr. MEK just asked if I wanted McD's for breakfast and I said, NO, that's okay - I think we need to take my temp!!
ReplyDeleteand - to clarify - I have only been there three times since it opened - twice the first day I found it is was open and the other day for Ice cream and to take pictures.. I have not been there for breakfast yet (yet, being the operative word)...
BUT - Dianne in Denver has given me incentive to go back quite a few times!!
:-)
cpgem - yes, my little owl will need a rain coat today - the wind is blowing really hard again today.
Happy Dance for TWENTY!!!
ReplyDeleteTinka - good morning - sorry that I messed up your counting!! oops..
ReplyDeletehope you are feeling better today!!
Scirish - happy belated birthday!!
Oh My, how fun, I put a kiss thingy on my ms page, and two people left me kisses on it...Well not counting MEK, she left me a kiss comment, which is just as special..
ReplyDeleteAnywho..
If you scroll over where ppl left the kiss they also left a msg.. I love it..
I know I am a goof..
And you have to see the picture.. So fun!
As I know I am still a goof..
Good Morning. I started the day with the wrong number. Hence the delete.
ReplyDelete25
ReplyDeleteI got it.
ReplyDeleteMek:
ReplyDeleteI will send your owl an umbrella!
:O)
Morning Tinka!
♥♥
***Breaking News***
ReplyDeleteMy brother is coming to my house for dinner with his Girlfriend, and my nephews are coming to, so it will be the first "meet and greet"
Oy Vey
***End of Breaking News***
Iteach - Congrats on first. I remember trying to get so much done while my three were sleeping.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Shirley, East Bay J,
Mek, Lynn and Carol.
Ibebold - I love that version of
"White Christmas". It makes me feel happy.
I will read the comments.
30
ReplyDeleteAnd my two kisses on my face where from JodiHO and Just_Lin...
ReplyDeleteThanks!
cpgem - LOL - I guess i missed the actually - "leave a kiss" - I'll have to go look for it!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a goof!!!
have fun today with the "meet and greet"...
Mek:
ReplyDeleteI was cracking up.. Loved your kisses any which way!
:O)
I love reading everyone's comments. My back isn't as good as yesterday. I think I overdid it so I will just do a check in. We have ten cm. of snow today. It's Tia's second time to see snow. Her first year it snowed and I couldn't get her to walk in it. Now she is racing around as happy as can be. Tango doesn't like it now. I guess when you get older it's not so appealing. The snow looks great but we aren't used to driving in it so a lot of plans will be changed today.
ReplyDeleteI think that is as long as I can sit here. Have a great day everybody. I love you all.

ReplyDeleteCarol I'm glad you like my snowmen. I have a small collection of them but they are in the closet with the tree and the rest of the decorations. This snowman was perfect for today cause he looks how I feel and the sun is shining.
ReplyDeleteGood morning EBJ, Mek, Lynn D, Carol and Tinka!
ReplyDeletecpgem - I just left a "raspberry" on your belly button!! LOL
ReplyDeleteShirley:
ReplyDeleteI love that you see the sun today, I see it as well.. Even if my brother is coming over tonite.. I can still feel the sun..
Actually I think its because my nephews are going to be there, but heck I take the sun whenever I can get it..
:O)
Mek:
ReplyDeleteOh how fun.. I am going to look now..
How cute am I as a Snowman? I know I get it from Shirley.. :O)
Mek:
ReplyDeleteRight on my belly... SWAK...
Thanks!
Tinka:
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a good day! Enjoy the snow, as it does look pretty, even tho it can be a pain.. Glad Tia is happy!
Congrats on first, iteach!!
ReplyDeleteIBB, I love that song and that version, too. It's so special when you connect with someone like you connected with Miss Etta.
Scirish, I'm so sorry I missed your birthday! That dang myspace never tells me anymore!! Anyway, Happy Birthday!
Just_Lin, that crazy kid! He'll be singing a different tune in a few years when he realizes how young 60 is!! (Hey, I heard it's the new 40.)
Carol, don't you stress over that dinner. It will be fine. You'll see.
Tinka, I'm so glad your back is better! Healing hugs to you.
Happy Sunday, Shirley, EBJ, MEK, LynnD!
Good Morning OWLETTES!!!!!

Scirish must be having a birthday hangover this morning... Happy Birthday..(late) .. iam sorry ..I didn't know...
Carol...
ReplyDeleteYou will have a great evening... Your nephews all there... you can't ask for better then that!!!
Again from area 51...
ReplyDeleteJust Lin... I can't believe you let him get away with that... I guess you were shocked that he was so rude!!!
I like MEK's solution for him.. I have a visual of you placing that tree so he is a treetop decoration.. !!!!
might as well...48
ReplyDelete49
ReplyDelete50...HAppy dance!!!!
ReplyDeleteO.K.... I am clearly playing with myself... so I go get my wrapping done!!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day all....
enjoy the video!!!
Good Morning Hooters (I mean Owls): It is showing a booming 0 degrees on my computer here in Denver today, about 2" on snow but the sun is out right now anyway. Good thing our football game is away this week.
ReplyDeleteJODI: From Area 51: We are playing the Carolina Panthers and it is on at 2:15 Denver time. It is on CBS. I hope you get it this week...I put in a word to all the TV stations and the Broncos management that they had a new fan in WESconsin!
MEK: I like th breakfast burritos at McD's. I am never up early enough or want to go out in the AM but BONO..be sure you read Area 51 regarding the ones at Sonic. I gave a pretty good Sonic review over there. Hope they don't try and get me to do those stupid commercials with those two people in the car!!! Have any of you seen them?
TINK: Sorry your back isn't as good today as yesterday. Just relax and watch your family put up your big tree and enjoy.
IBB: Good video...I love that song too. Happy Birthday to Miss Etta. It sounds like you had a great friendship. After you are done wrapping...please help me as I really don't like to wrap.
YIPEE>>>>LYNND: When can you get here? We will have a great time and maybe even skip the shopping. I will take you to MEK's hangouts from when she was here...if the snow isn't too bad to go to the mountains. HMMMM, hey MEK--do you think they will let me back in those places we were visiting? :)
CAROL: Have a great time with your nephews tonight. I know you will do just great with your brother being there too.
SHIRLEY: Again, thank you for teaching me how to change my owl.
iteach Congrats on #1! The fact that it is quiet enough for you to even hear the dryer is a blessing, isn't it? Sometimes it's the smallest things that bring us smiles.
ReplyDeleteIBB (((HUGS))) to you and Happy Birthday to Miss Etta. I also love this version of White Christmas.
LynnD, MEK, Sandie, & IBB At least I got my 10%, which he applied AFTER adding sales tax instead of before. The idiot! It saved me $10. I guess if 60 is the new 40, he was only a toddler so no wonder he doesn't know better! LOL
Hi JUSTLIN, I was wondering where everyone had gone. I thought maybe there was a pre-owl party that I didn't know about going on.
ReplyDeleteOur temp has gone up to 1 degrees now. Glad I am staying home in my comfy clothes.
I have kind of funny story to tell all of you. I have those candles that you can float on the counter. I just found them in a Xmas bag. MR D was in the kitchen last night and asked me "are these cookies available". I had no idea what he was talking about until I went over there to look. The scents on the candles are sugar cookie, vanilla, etc. Good thing I was home or he would have been taking a big bite! lol
ZONA: You must be covered in cookie dough by this time. You need to come up for air...you have frosting on your nose. How many cookies do you have left to make with Mr Z?
TINA: Where are you? You forgot to tell me snow was coming from you. Did you get any---snow (naughty thoughts)?
Dianne That is funny about the candles. They do smell yummy, though, don't they? I bet Mr. D was disappointed. I haven't eaten yet today so I think I better scramble a couple of eggs or something.
ReplyDeleteBBL
IBB - Great video...and I love the story about Miss Etta!!
ReplyDeleteI just got home from Wallyworld...and I picked up a new pair of jeans.....in the next size DOWN!!! I haven't bought this size in about 12 years!!
CAROL - I hope the meet n' greet goes well!!! Say Hi to those hottie nephews of yours!!! :P
DIANNE - I'll have to tune in to the game after I get back from my nephew's band concert!! I've got my shirt ready to go!!!
ZONA - Gentle ((((HUGS))))....you know, cuz I love ya!!
ITEACH - Congrats on first!!! What is your first day of your break? It would be amazing if you could join us on the 23rd!!!
SHIRLEY - Thanks for the card and the ammunition!!! I just laughted when I saw it.....you totally made my day. THANK YOU!!! :o) :o) :o)
I hope everyone has a great Sunday afternoon!!!
Just Lin - I would like some grated cheese in my scrambled eggs - thank you!!
ReplyDelete:-)
Dianne - we actually GET the game today!! I can't wait!!! I've got my shirt on...

ReplyDeleteIBB and Jodi glad you like the "ammunition"! Lol!
Dianne you're welcome. Glad I could help.
MEK Will cheddar do? LOL
ReplyDeleteJoey I'm looking forward to seeing the "prancing". LOL
Hey Shirley, Justlin and the rest of you! lol
ReplyDeletehehe@Justlin..Everytime I hear the word "prance", I think of this RuPaul song! LMAO
Shade Shady-PRANCE
Whabbear, how about we have this song playing as our entrance at the party...and we'll prance in together?
ReplyDeleteROFLMAO;)
testing my new pic..This is an ornament on my tree, but it was meant to be a gift tag!
ReplyDeleteNaughty! hehe

ReplyDeleteI'm off to concentrate on this Bronco game -

75
ReplyDeleteJoey - i wasn't hiding!!
ReplyDelete:-)
Dianne - are we drinking or doing shots during this game??!!
ReplyDeleteYES!!!!!!!!!!!
Ohhh Mek lol
ReplyDeleteI'm shocked about Survivor too..Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteJoey Check your MS. :)
ReplyDelete80! haha
ReplyDeleteCongrats Justlin!! You got 80! lol
ReplyDeleteOk, will do right now! thanks!
Anyone have a prediction for the winner of Survivor? Maybe Kenny, but I would like see Sugar win I think.
ReplyDeleteDianne - i may have to change the channel!!!!!!! YIKES...
ReplyDeleteShirley - I don't think Kenny would get the votes - and Bob kinda did himself in with the fake idol....... and Sugar - she would have been my guess for FIRST person voted out of survivor - SO, I have a feeling that she will win!!
Hey gang! It is colder than a witches wahoo here today! Even the dogs don't want to go out.
ReplyDeleteWell I put up a tree. I got a 6 foot fiber optic and it looks pretty good without ornaments so I am thinking maybe none this year. We will see.
I have vacuumed up enough dog hair to make shirts for a third world country and I am not done yet! Geeez!
I swear I just want to throw in the towel mix a drink and make out some more cards.
More to do....
Oh and Mr. Lynn D got his wish, the Seahawks finally one a freaking game this year! LOL
ReplyDeleteLynnD Well, the Niners lost.....again. It seems every time I watch them, they lose. I'm beginning to get a complex.
ReplyDelete88
ReplyDeleteand I'm going to have to STOP watching this Bronco game - they need to win to get into the playoffs and everytime we get the game - they lose!!!
ReplyDeleteHey Owls. Happy Sunday to you all.
ReplyDeleteI just got back from ushering an early performance of Cinderella. They rotate this with Christmas Carol every other year and it is very funny. The step-sisters are played by guys in drag and there is a lot of subtle adult humor that hopefully goes over the kids heads.
I am waiting for my son to come over. I am taking him out to dinner for his birthday, which is today. When the hell did my kids get so old when I am just a spring chicken (or Owl).
IBB, I couldn't see the video, but I could hear the song. I love this version, too. You are lucky to have been able to share such a connection with Miss Etta and she was lucky to have you too.
Iteach, congrats on #1. I remember loving the quiet and now I long for some kid noise.
MEK, LOL @ the tree top ornament reference.
Waving wildly at everyone else. Dean's here so I gotta go. BBL
SacBarb Happy Birthday wisdhers to Dean. :)
ReplyDelete"wisdhers"? WTF??? LMAO!!
ReplyDeleteYou know what I mean.
Just Lin - what else did you put in those eggs?!! wisdhers??!! LMAO
ReplyDeleteSacBarb - happy birthday to Dean - raising my glass to wisdhers!!
I fell asleep - phone woke me up - are the Broncos losing that bad that they switched to the Pittsburgh game??!!

ReplyDeletenot quite fast enough
ReplyDeleteIBB~ love that song...i've seen that before...so funny and cute~ Hugs to you and Miss Etta~
ReplyDeleteTina- don't you hate when that happens!!
ReplyDelete:-)
thanks...
Tina Hi, Ho!
ReplyDeleteMEK Congrats on the march. Re: wisdhers, I have no idea how those extra letters got in there but there was no alcohol involved, honest! LOL
Anybody got some wisdhers-shire sauce? LMAO!!!
I think all this Xmas decorating has put me over the edge.
ReplyDeleteJust Lin - sure - just keep saying that !! and we'll all believe you!!
ReplyDelete;-)
OH.....
ReplyDeleteDianne - my feet just got really cold for you..... weatherman just said it's only MINUS 11 at your house!!
BBBRRRRRRRRRRR.........
can I come visit now??!!
and - I'm sure those places will let us back in (we didn't drink THAT much!!!)- can you imagine how cold that "private" room would be today!!!
I need to go find something to eat!!
ReplyDeleteSOOOOOOOOOO tempted to drive to MEKD's!!!!
IBB~~Thanks so much for sharing your special bond with Miss Etta, AND the cute video. I'm usually not crazy about near parody versions of the standards, but I've always loved this Drifters' version of White Christmas. I had totally forgotten about this video until I clicked on the blog. Then it all came back to me. So cute!
ReplyDeleteFeelin' a bit icky today for some reason, so I'm just here to say "Hi, Bye, and have a safe wintery week" to all.....and thanks again, IBB, for the smiles!
Good Evening All!!
ReplyDeleteIBB: That video is so cute. I could just picture you and Miss Etta singing and smiling while listening to this song.
I played it three times..once more than you asked, loved it each time. Thanks IBB.
BON'O: I hope you feel better!
ReplyDeleteITEACH: Congrats on FIRST!!
ReplyDeleteMEK: No rain here yet, but it's a little nippy. Did you give in and go to McD's??
DIANNE: How'd they do today? I didn't get any updates. Oh, and no frosting in this house! Not yet anyways...
MEK: Congrats on 100..
ReplyDeleteTINA: Congrats on 101..makes me think of college...damn, lots of things make me think of college. ;)
SACBARB: Happy Happy Birthday to your baby boy!! :)
J/LIN: I have the same complex about watching the Raiders...I wish I could put it to use against other teams..lol..
ReplyDeleteHI DIANNE!!! Kidding, just kidding... :D
JODI: Thank you..
TINKA: I sure hope your back is feeling better..try and rest.
CPGEM: Thank you..it was needed..you always know... :)
ReplyDeleteVIG: Safe travels!
LYNND: Well...didja?? ;)
Waving HI to SHIRLEY, JOEY, EBJ and SANDIE!
CPGEM: I hope everything went well tonight!!
ReplyDeleteAREA51:
BEAR: LOL!! Love your 'Night Before Christmas'...
SHIRLEY: Can't wait to see what you have planned!
MO: You better be there! :)
OK..the echo is deafening..hope everyone has a nice evening...
Zona - we were watching America's Funniest Videos - Heck, I can't even get a winner on that!!!
ReplyDelete;-)
Bono - hope you are feeling better.
Survivor is on - I'll be back much later!!!
OH - and NO, mcd's did NOT win - I stayed home........
Well, here I am Dianne_Dragging_Orange_Tassels_In_Denver!!! Those darn Broncos played bad. MEK: You (lucky for you) slept through part of the Bronco game and that was why Pittsburg was on when you woke up! lol Time for you and JODI to take the shirt off. ZONA: don't make me have my "second fight" with you! :)
ReplyDeleteMEK: That private room would be freezing. We would have to be drinking Hot Buttered Rum on a day like today. I'll bet it sure is pretty up there right now.
It is chilly here right now. I still have on my sweats from earlier today and have done not one thing but read the paper and watch football. I think I will see if MR D wants to hop over to McD's or order a pizza. Who knows, maybe he will finish up the floating candles! :)
I can't wait for Survivor tonight. I like Bob, Matty and Sugar. I started liking Sugar better this past week although, she has played the game pretty good. I was like you MEK, never thought she would make it past the first week. I DO NOT want Kenny to be in the final three. I was glad to finally see Chrystal go the other night. She sure didn't do much for the reputation of an Olympic, did she? I think Bob has done so well for an "old guy" and I am somewhat partial to professors!
BONO: Hope you feel better soon. Maybe you need to drive over to Sonic to get a pick-me-upper!
TINK: Does your family have your tree all up and beautiful?
ZONA: I thought those cookies had to be done this weekend. Please don't tell me that they are all waiting for you to work on. I would go back to bed.
Ok..pizza it is....time for Survivor.
DIANNE: All cookies have to be done by Thursday. Tomorrow I have been ordered to make chocolate chip. It's just not any fun when you can't eat any of them.
ReplyDeleteBTW...I thought you were cooking every night now! Practice, practice so you can use the fondue set, Foreman grill and spatula I'm sending you for Christmas! I hope you still like orange...I could get them in black and silver if you want. That way they'd match the Raiders apron you're also getting!! ;)
MEK: I think of you everytime I see a McD's commercial now... ;)
Dianne - I just read the last comment and saw you asked about my tree (I will read the other comments tomorrow). I got some of it decorated today.
ReplyDeleteMy family did not make it here because of the snow. We had 5 inches but then we had ice falling and the roads were not good. Police advised people to drive only if they had to. We are not used to snow here and the side roads don't get plowed or sanded. There were a few accidents and no planes are flying today.
My friend who flew in to take us to lunch yesterday (the lunch I missed) will have a hard time flying out tomorrow. When snow happens here it's a big thing. It makes people who are used to this kind of weather laugh at us. It's no laughing matter however when you are on the road and you have no traction. I have been in that situation and don't want to experience it again.
Zona - Thanks for the phone call. I am glad you are feeling better.
VIG - Stay safe. I am worried about you traveling tomorrow.
I
125
ReplyDeleteHey hey hey!
ReplyDeleteWho used to say that, was it Rerun? Can't remember what show that was!
OK I have to chime in on Survivor. I am hoping that Sugar wins.
Don't like Kenny, don't really like Bob, and don't think Suzie did anything to warrant a win.
MR. EBJ was astonished to find out that Crystal was an Olympic athlete, and was even more shocked to find out she was a runner!
I'm sure her tribe mates will be surprised too. Remember the first episode when they had to run up that hill, someone had to practically drag her up.
It doesn't start for another hour, and I'm all ready! haha Got home from work late, sweet MR. EBJ had dinner ready so ate then got a shower, brushed Paula and now waiting til 8:00.
Joey and Whab I would love to see you 2 prance, for some reason I am picturing you both in hot pink pumps!? Do those sound like good prancing shoes?? haha!
I have a sassy birdy that is yelling for a COOKIE so I will return!
Just checking to see if you Owls have been naughty or nice. I hope to see you soon! Be good, take care, do all your little elf work and have a great week!
ReplyDelete*walking around the Owl Manor and making sure that all is in order* Hmmmm looks like these Owls have been busy.
ReplyDeleteToodles for now be back later this week! Get all your wishes and hopes for Christmas together, because my appearance has been requested at your Christmas party on Friday..Ho Ho Hoes...have a great night!
ReplyDeleteSANTA - So nice of you to come check out Owl Manor!! I'll see you on Friday. :D
ReplyDeleteI am taking a break tomorrow. I will see you all on Tuesday. Be good. Santa is watching for sure.
ReplyDeleteTINK: Please stay safe and warm!
ReplyDeleteJODI: Yay for replenishing!! ;)
SANTA: I've been very, very good. How much do you see, exactly?? No reason, jus' wondering... ;)
Stopping in to say GOOD NITE to all.
ReplyDeleteZona - it was a pretty chilly day in the desert - it's still raining here......
but - our "cold" is nothing like what everyone else had to deal with..
i hope everyone has an excellent Monday!!
:-)
ZONA: It's official...we are having our second fight. I am sure you are sending me a Raider apron,any apron for that matter and all those cooking toys. Umm, I don't think the Raiders won today either---did they? I do know you expect more from the Broncos since they are a potential playoff team and all---
ReplyDeleteTINK: Sorry your family wasn't able to make it over today but I agree with staying home with bad roads. It's just not worth taking a chance. It is now a balmy -15 here in Denver at 11PM...brr. I haven't stuck my arm outside all day
What did you all think about Survivor? I can't believe Susie got so many votes. I was hoping for a different winner for the $100,000. I think this show got better the second half of the series. I barely could remember some of those original people that started on the show. It looks like some repeats have started already this week on some of the shows like DHW. Oh well, one less recorded show for me to find time to watch.
Hi SANTA: I can help you with a report on some of the owls if you need one. I am not a snitch but.....
DIANNE: ~sigh~ official??? dang..
ReplyDeleteWait, the Broncos are only a 'potential playoff team'? I thought they were going to the Super Bowl.... ;)
Well, at least the Raiders are consistant...though SACBARB, EBJ and I are not happy about it...
Dear Santa...about Diane.. lol!
ReplyDeleteJust peeking i before going to bed.
Diane/Denver, I never stepped foot outside today either. This was a shameful, worthless, lazy day for me!
Can you believe it is 1:27 am here in Mich. and it is 49'! There are flood warnings because of all the snow melting.
IBB~ What a fun video! I am glad it brings you happy memories of Miss Etta. My Mom spent a lot of days in the dialysis room before she died. I sure hope there were people there that made her as happy as you did Etta. Bless you for being there for her.
Counting the days until the P-A-R-T-Y!!
G'Night MARY...may you have the sweetest dreams!!
ReplyDeleteG'Night to MEK & TINKA too!
Zona~ Thanks, I will try. I may dream about chain saws, as that is what Mr. Mary is sounding like lol!!
ReplyDeletePleasant dreams to you too.
MARY: I was watching a little part of the Detroit game and the announcers were thinking they might win today...darn it..didn't.
ReplyDeleteBoy, 49 is a nice night temp. This weather is crazy. What were you thinking about telling Santa ...be careful-
ZONA; Cute Christmas owl. You are a chick (owl) looking for trouble, Missy.
