I did order a CD this morning....but no rush.....it's not for a Christmas gift.

I am healing slowly. The surgeon said I could only eat "foods that can be squished by my fingers or cut with a plastic knife" for one week. And, I can only eat on one side of my mouth. But otherwise, feeling a lot better.

Try varieties of mashed taters!

That is early even for me, though I have to leave the house at 7:40 tomorrow-groan.

Why is this controversial?

https://youtu.be/ik4JHMPU2WQ?si=S_TWFAJky4ECAWzt

I find it joyous.

I really enjoyed this, too!  Why are some people SO upset with this?? :o

Well obviously it’s because there are non-white people and possible non heterosexual people looking happy in Biden’s White House therefore it must be evil, anti Christianity and no doubt some sort of indoctrination of young folks .

I suspect those people might have even taken the jab!

Q for BK, or anyone who’d care to answer. What are your favorite Christmas/holiday LPs?



My parents had this, and I just really liked it.  His version of "Sleigh Ride" is probably my favorite version of all. :)

My folks always played this album when decorating the tree.

Watching The Dangerous Christmas of Red Riding Hood. What a campy delight.

  Does ice cream count as a food you can squish ;)

The doctor recommended that specifically, as a matter of fact.        :)

We hardly ever have it in the house, so it's a special treat.

I do like the Jule Styne-Bob Merrill songs.

We had a good laugh about the “staging” of our old house.  After getting all of our stuff out and paying to have all the holes in the walls covered up, we watched our realtor and her daughter drag a bunch of generic stuff back in and put new holes in the walls to hang pictures that look like they came out of a hotel room.
