Well...

I think I'm done wrapping the presents. Now to finish up a few cards... and to pick up the various scraps of wrapping paper.

In the meantime...

I've been listening to "A Broadway Christmas" which was produced by our esteemed bk...

I had totally forgotten about that version of "We Need A Little Christmas" that Lynette Perry performs. Groovy!

And now I'm on to "A Charlie Brown Christmas". I know it's a great Christmas album, but, at this time of year, I'm once again reminded at just how great a JAZZ album it is.

Vince Guaraldi was a wonderful jazz composer/pianist.  Love all of his stuff!

On a related note, somehow over the course of the past couple of days I've managed to accumulate four bags of m&m's (Dark Chocolate, Pretzel, Chocolate Mint & Cherry Cordial), two bags of Hershey's Kisses (Caramel & Cherry Cordial), a box of Mallomars, a bag of Iced Animal Crackers, a package of Tim-Tams, and assorted stocking-stuffer-sized boxes of chocolate truffles. Hmmm...

This Glade Plug-In I have in the hallway outlet has a very pleasant smell but it is not spruce.

And now...

Well...

Harvey Fierstein posted this clip on Facebook, and... well... If anything could give someone a Christmas nightmare, this might be it...

Just happened on this Christmas With The King Family special on a local PBS channel.  The last clip was sort of creepy--carolers who perform during a home invasion.

Tina Cole Is still the only member of the entire King Family that I can recall. All the rest just look like Lawrence Welk Show extras.

Y'all are lucky I'm posting on my iPhone or I'd be posting a couple of It's Christmas With The King Family clips.

And...

I was just going through my receipts and noticed something "wrong" on one of the receipts for a gift card I bought. I just checked the balance via phone, and it looks like someone had put $5 on it and then placed it back in the display bin. Christmas bonus?

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Well...

This creature is about done stirring for the evening. I've tidied up my room, and even got a head start on sorting the laundry that I'll most likely be doing in the morning. Since we went to Mass earlier tonight, and since my brothers and their kids aren't due to arrive until after Noon, I can sleep in. We can all sleep in. A little. Until then...

"Merry Christmas to all, and to All a good night."

The Do is Done and was the best Do we've ever had - much more in the notes, which I'll write in a few minutes.  I spent the last hour cleaning up.

We listened to that at my parents' house and it's my sister's favorite Christmas album!

All our gift giving was done tonight at my parents' and all gifts have been opened.  I got some very nice gift cards, the new Blu-ray of "West Side Story" (#917 of 50,000!) and the complete series of "Space 1999"...and a couple of other things. :D

Well, I hate to do it...no, I really do...but I must go to sleep now.  Everyone's going to my sister's house for brunch and she'll be making home-made cinnamon rolls.

Good night, all and A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS (or alternate holiday of choice) TO EVERYONE!! ;D
