I ain't got no spirit or time, so no tree for me! I'll be lucky to even get a light outside at all.

I just looked at the calendar and realized I am leaving wednesday and will be back home for exactly 12 hours in the next 3 weeks. :rolleyes:

You need to get yourself some arnica (at Whole Foods) -- it is homeopathic -- great for muscle aches, pains & bruises -- a natural anti-inflammatory -- CM is a fan now!^

All this talk about sweet stuff is leading me to make some Earl Grey tea. It will be the fault of the lot of you when I get up at 3 AM to wee.

Some how tonight has become wine and oatmeal night for me. :confused:

I plan to celebrate Christmas by getting sloppy-drunk in a secular islamic nation. The whole idea has a certain bent, je ne sais quoi to it. :-:

Eat lots of sunflowers :cool:

+2!:rolleyes:;)

I will see if I can get my hands on some tomollow.

That is indeed an odd one.

I bought some Tulsi ginger tea today for easing throat pains....not thought to make any yet tho that tylenol cold and cough worked so darn well. I am about to take another dose and sleep off the next 12 hours.

Is you blog going to be titled "How I escaped Christmas"?

I don't mind celebrating it a few days early. Had Thanksgiving with the folks just this evening, as I'll be in Den Haag for the real deal. I plan to enjoy "Christmas" with them the weekend prior, as well.

Hmmm, interesting! Will do the morning xmas thing w/the kids & ex (I think) & then off to PVR to hang out w/my step-mom & her 'guest'!^

agreed! I am on my 2nd glass of red wine -- something spanish -- yep, already seeing that my red wine consumption has shown a marked increase since yesterday afternoon!:rolleyes: Yep - looking forward to serving at church t'morrow -- we'll see how I feel!;)

Hope you are able to get all the sleep your body needs!:-:

We always 'moved up' the holidays when we were living in Brasil -- it just worked out better -- the kids certainly didn't mind!:D;)
