For The Men and Women In Our Military......

Here is a special Christmas wish and prayer

that was sent from our home with appreciation for you

and what you are doing for the world and for all of us here at home.

God bless you and your families and may you return home safe and soon!

My children will be leaving an extra bag of cookies for Santa to drop off to you all when he lands in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Jeremy,

your bag is tied with a gold ribbon!

So, we ERECTED the tree tonight......

And I think I'm gonna' sleep right here under it!

Whew!

And just for the record......

Bigger ain't necessarily better either!

I've always wanted a HUGE tree

but "dingle-shnork" always talked me out of it.

So, since I didn't have to argue about "SIZE" with any one this year

I went out and got me a monster tree.,

A very mean, monster tree.

It whipped my butt!

It took the children (who were more like, in and out) and I

almost 4 hours to get that bad boy up and decorated!

Now I'm exhausted, coverd in sap and stuck to the carpet

on the floor 'neath" the tree.

It's not too bad though, the children keep bringing me cookies and I

have my spray bottle filled and am now on

CAT - DUTY!

(It's Aggie's first Christmas)

Every time she even looks at the tree or comes near me I

" pffffsssssssssst", "pfffffffffffffssssssssssst", "pfffffffffsssssssssst"

her really good with water!

Yeah, I'm gonna' be right here for awhile!

Goodnight to you all and hope you have sweet dreams!

I need another cookie!

Friday Flash 55

Has anyone seen Christmas?

I've searched till I'm blue.

I've found people rushing with no smiles on their face.

And the stores are all groomed with no parking space.

I've looked and I've listened for that magicical place.

Could someone please, just give me a clue?

Oh, yeah, that's right,

You'll find Christmas

within

YOU!

Flash Fiction Friday

Every Friday, I compose a short story of 55 words - no more, no less.

If you want to join in the fun and games and give it a try,

post your story and report to the boss.

G-Man!

Here I go!

I really do not have many words today.

Just a lot of feelings.

Winter is a time for seeking refuge,

for our mind, body and spirit.

But I refuse.

There are lots of changes going on inside of me

and I feel like I am jumping off into the deep end

without my "floaties" on.

Yet, at the same time, I feel my power welling up inside of me

and I am in search of the tallest cliff imaginable so that even

in the moment where I need to be still and grow,

I am taking action and standing up for my self.

So, today I just feel like putting on my swimming suit,

and plunging into the water from heights I've never been before.

HERE I GO!

I Couldn't Help Myself!

Try this, it is hysterical!

Go to

magmypic.com

then upload a photo and choose your cover.

Ohhhh, I'm gonna' have sooo much fun with this!

Sipping Joy.....

Oh, the refreshing sip of life that has for so long, been gone.

To be spoken to and treated like a lady.

To have someone to compliment you,

constantly and about the simplest of things.

To actually take me on a surprise "getaway"

to some where

wonderfully romantic and extravagant.

To hear the words, "What ever you want, doll."

To be looked at as if he were drinking of me.

It's been 3 months since we've seen each other.

And I realize now.......that I missed him!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,

how delicious life feels,

when you begin

to start "living" it again.

I think I'm gonna just linger in this moment for a bit.

If ya'll don't mind.

:)-

Have a super weekend!

Marriage.....

This 80 year old woman was arrested for

shop lifting.

When she went before the judge in Cincinnati he asked her,

"What did you steal?"

She replied,

"A can of peaches."

The judge then asked her why she had stolen the can of peaches

and she replied that she was hungry.

The judge then asked her how many peaches were in the can.

She replied 6.

The judge then said,

"I will then give you 6 days in jail."

Before the judge could actually pronounce the punishment,

the woman's husband spoke up and asked the judge if he could say something.

The judge said,

"What is it?"

The husband said,

"She also stole a can of peas."

Holiday Fun!

Points Of View....

Back in the 1929 Financial Crash

it was said that some Wall Street stockbrokers and bankers

JUMPED

from their office windows and committed suicide

when confronted with the news of their firms' and clients' financial ruin.

Many people were said to have almost felt a little sorry for them. . .

In

2008

the attitude has changed

Now the signs read,

"JUMP YOU IDIOTS!"

somewhat. . .

Raccoon Bandit - Hilarious!

This YouTube video features a daring heist.
But theft isn’t what you’re expecting!
When you live near the wilderness,

sometimes you get unexpected guests.

This sneaky raccoon is caught on camera.
It creeps into this house through a dog door.
Then it heads straight for the dog bowl.
But it can’t compete with the household cat and dog.

Raccoons are wild animals.
They naturally stick to wooded areas.
But they are also incredibly adaptable.
As man moved into their habitat, they didn’t run.
Raccoons have little problem living in urban environments.
These kinds of encounters are not uncommon!

Hilarious!

Meet an Angel......

I'd like everyone to go on over and meet

Genevieve.

She is probably one of the bravest and most powerful blogger's

you will ever have the chance to meet.

She is, and has been, very sick for the past 7 months with Cystic Fibrosis.

Her mission is simple, to share her story and to reach out to others who also suffer from this horrific diagnosis.

Now,

I know my family here in Bloggeritaville and I beg of you

to go on over and give her the love and support you are each renowned for giving.

She is truly Amazing!

I hope each of you have a moment today

The Music Is Gone.......

I woke up this morning and my first thought was of you.

But we're done.

It is hard enough to end a loving relationship although that's not what we had.

Yes, once we shared an orchestra of sweetness.

But of late, we seethed of anger and shame.

I've cut loose my best friend.

Yet best friends do not hurt each other with words nor punches.

So I guess I've only lost a memory of music that we had.

I wish for you to dance in the rain again,

with some other fool.

My only wish is that I have learned the difference

between forgiveness and blame.

An Introduction.....

May I request a moment of your time so that I can introduce to you,

my new

favorite person

Yvonne Kriddle

I believe her to be best friends with ONE of my favorite,

alter egos!

Obsessions.....

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session

with four young mothers and their small children.

"You all have obsessions," he observed.

To the first mother he said, "Mary, you are obsessed with eating.

You've even named your daughter Candy."

He turned to the second mom, "Ann, your obsession is with money.

Again, it manifests itself in your child's name, Penny."

He turned to the third mom, "Joyce, your obsession is alcohol.

This too shows itself in your child's name, Brandy."

At this point, the fourth mother, Kathy, quietly got up,

took her little boy by the hand and whispered,

"Come on, Dick, we're leaving.

Your brothers Peter and Willy are waiting for us."

I have gone bananas!

Southern Home Security System.....

1. Go to a second-hand store and buy a pair of men's work boots, used, size 14-16. $2.00

2. Place them on your front porch, along with a copy of Guns & Ammo Magazine or NRA. Magazine - $3.00

3. Put a few giant dog dishes next to the boots and magazine.

4. Leave a note on your door that reads:

Hey Bubba, Big Jim, Duke and Slim:

I went for more shotgun shells and to pick my check up from the slaughterhouse. I should be back in an hour. Don't mess with the Pit Bulls--don't know what got into them, but they attacked the mailman this morning and messed him up real bad. I don't think Killer took part in it but it was hard to tell from all the blood. Anyway, I locked all four of 'em in the house. Better wait out here on the porch.

Later~
