Vixmom has some very nice clients, if a not-so-great boss.

DR Ron I very much enjoyed your long Christmas story today. I hope there will be a photo of the silver chest.

I can feel your satisfaction & joy knowing your mother now has HDD capability.

DR Ron - thanks for the recipe! I need to make a pecan pie Wednesday for a nephew we're seeing Thursday...

The recipe sounds good.

Day meals we often had with friends who were "LA orphans" not going home to be with family.

LA orphans, I like that. I suppose we are the orphans of the opposite kind.

Sauce is simmering away, I stir frequently, and everything is pretty much ready to go. I'll shower shortly and I'm watching Cesar and Rosalie, which will be done in about twenty minutes.

Bruce have a wonderful party!!!!

I wasn't sure I should drive my car to the mail box & I didn't want to drive Keith's, so I walked. On the way down I couldn't help but think:
1. I should have left earlier while the sun was still shining & it was warmer
2. It isn't bad, probably could have driven my car
3. I hope there aren't any packages to carry back up the hill

Walking home, without any packages, I was very glad I had walked. It was beautiful out with both mountains ranges topped with snow. The Cascades looked as if they had been spread with icing & the evergreens on the Siskiyou Mountains looked as if powdered sugar had been sifted over them.

All of my earlier posts have vanished!

DR elmore I see a post from you on page 1 and another post on page 2.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #105 on:** December 24, 2012, 05:38:52 PM »

But not the four I posted after DR ArnoldMBrockman.

And back to the movie . . .

Unless you removed them it's not possible for posts to disappear - I certainly didn't remove them.

Jane · « **Reply #107 on:** December 24, 2012, 05:45:15 PM »

Very strange. If my posts went missing I'm not sure I would notice.

bk · « **Reply #108 on:** December 24, 2012, 05:45:32 PM »

Everything is ready and now just waiting for arrivals starting at six. I like when people get here right at six so I can have my first food o' the day.

Jane · « **Reply #109 on:** December 24, 2012, 05:46:20 PM »

You can cook & not taste?!?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #110 on:** December 24, 2012, 05:48:39 PM »

I am ready for some spaghetti.

This is cool. All we could see of the American Dipper when it dove were the ripples in the water.

On the news tonight, they said that there was an estimated 1.7 billion presents loaded on Santa's sleigh. Shouldn't someone report Mr. Claus to the Humane Society? It certainly sounds like reindeer abuse to me.

Laura · « **Reply #113 on:** December 24, 2012, 06:18:16 PM »

Jane, I have never seen a dipper. How exciting.

The Salvation Army is reporting that for a second year in a row, a Secret Santa in Seattle has deposited a Krugerrand in one of their kettles. Current value is apporximately $1,700.00.

TOD:

Certainly my most vivid Christmas memory occurred when I was seven or eight years old.

If I hadn't spotted my father's familiar checked shirt under the sleeve of his Santa Claus suit, I might still believe that St. Nick was real.

You mean, St. Nick is your father?

~~I'll be~~ I am home for Christmas! We arrived from Lima about 45 minutes ago - the tree, mantle, windows, and front porch are lighted and the stockings are filled.

It really was. I couldn't figure out what this thing in the pond was. It looked like a bird & acted more like a duck. I told Keith we had a mini duck in the pond

I'm glad to see this before signing off for the night.

DR Laura I tried to find a good video of the Dipper bouncing. It is such a funny bird.
