This Night Owl Blog has given so much!
It is a fun place, we don't bash and we have fun being "tedious"!
We offer advice, give love, lots of free food and an open forum which can be about anything that is important, thought provoking or just plain silly.
And sometimes we just March (some to different drummers, but all together). :)
It is not about a single person, it is about all the people on any given day blended together.....Goldie!
Good Morning Shirley, Tina, Michael, Zona-My-Baby and Maureen.
Dianne - That was great. My toes didn't tap but my heart beat faster. It was beating "Christmas is coming, Christmas is coming".
As a former music teacher I was amazed at how so many people could learn the rhythm of that different version of "Deck the Halls". It is hard enough when you have 3 weeks of practice with everyone in the same place. I wish I had a dollar for every hour I spent practising that song for Christmas concerts that spread over 40 years. Thanks Dianne. It brought back such happy memories.
Zona - I am baking today too. We are making our Christmas wreaths. They are made of fruit bread, glazed with icing with a bow made from red cherries. It has been a tradition in our house for almost 50 years to have Christmas bread and tea or coffee between opening our stockings and unwrapping the rest of our presents. I am sitting with ice on my back getting ready to start. Jack with help me. He will be my gopher, the cutest little gopher you ever will see.
I finally got a tree yesterday with the help of my grandkids. I got the lights on last night and they put ornaments on it today. I'll be rearranging them later. LOL
Just_Lin - You always come in later in the day and say nice things to everyone. I never seem to get back to the blog after the morning is over. I just dropped by to say "Hi" and "Thank you" Sweetie. You are doing great with your decorating.
Once the grandkids put 8 ornaments on one limb of the tree don't you hate to move them? You have to in order to make a nicely balanced tree but I always feel a little guilty - like I should be leaving the ornaments where the grandkids put them.
Tinka Yes, I feel a little guilty but some of those ornaments really need to be moved. It seems there were favorite spots to put ornaments and least favorite spots. Now, when I turn the lights on it doesn't matter. It just looks pretty.

Maureen - You made such a lovely breakfast yesterday. I wish I had the time to make yours today. I will make up for it after Christmas I promise.
Tina - I am thinking of you tapping your toes while watching the computer. Do your children think you have "lost it"?
Shirley - What song makes your feet tap?
Michael - I am asking you the same question I asked Dianne? Please describe your gay apparel.
Must go. Lots to do. Have a great Sunday everyone.
Tinka big band music will make my feet tap.
This was just great! Thanks, Dianne! I love love love singing/dancing flash mobs. What fun it would be to participant in one!
Waving to Shirley, Tink, Michael, Zona, and 'weenie!
And you too, Tina, dear!
Shirley Congrats on being first and prettiest today. With that little red cap on, it looks like you've joined Michael in wearing gay apparel.
Tina Congrats on being second and the runner-up to prettiest today.
Michael Well, that is really, really gay apparel you have on there. Are they vintage or did you have them specially made for you?
Zona Well....how did it go today? Was the baking a success? I bet it was fun to do it with your sister.
MO Maybe Zona can spare a few dozen cookies for you. ;)
Tinka I bet Jack is a good helper and gopher. I think that's a lovely tradition that you have.
Bear Long time, no see. Glad you dropped in today. I agree, I think it would be a blast to participate in a flash mob. I can't sing but I can dance.
Dianne Thank you for the blog today. I didn't tap my feet but I sure did enjoy it.
I finally got a tree yesterday with the help of my grandkids. I got the lights on last night and they put ornaments on it today. I'll be rearranging them later. LOL
