Christmas Questionaire

 
Some Christmas Facts about me....
 
1.  Hot Chocolate or Egg Nog?  Both actually, but I only like Egg Nog at Christmas time.  Hot Chocolate I could drink all year long.
 
2.  Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?  Both, when I was little Santa left mine unwrapped because it was just me and my brother who was 14 years older so no mix ups were going to happen there.  I have 4 girls, so we wrap unless it is too big.
 
3.  Colored lights or white?  Usually white, but this year I bought the old fashioned big colored bulbs.  I was ready for a change and I love vintage.
 
4.  When do you decorate?  Usually a week or two before Christmas.  Never before Thanksgiving.  I do sometimes have my tree up in February though.  Yes, I am a procrastinator.
 
5.  Real or Fake Tree?  Fake, I have allergies.
 
6.  What tops your tree?  It changes.  I think it was either a star or an angel last year.  Sometimes it is a ribbon.
 
7.  Favorite Christmas memory or traditions?  I use to love going to candle light services on Christmas Eve, and I especially loved those candles with the paper circle around them.  We started having "Grinch Punch" last year and the girls have already requested it for this year.  We always open one present on Christmas Eve.  We always get a fun Coca Cola bottle (full) in our stockings.  We have sparkling grape juice in wine glasses and chocolate eclairs for Christmas morning.  After this many years, we have a lot of traditions.
 
8.  Do you remember your favorite gift as a child?  My baby changing table for my dolls, my Western Barbie and Ken, and my Rubik's cube when I was in Junior High.
 
9.  Do you prefer giving or receiving?  Both to be honest.  I like Christmas presents.
 
10.  What is your favorite Christmas song? Hymn-God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman.  Kids-Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer or I Want An Elephant for Christmas.  Contemporary-Mistletoe Jam by Luther Vandross.
 
11.  Candy canes-yuck or yum? Yummmmmm.
 
12.  Favorite Christmas movie? Holiday Inn and A Christmas Story.
 
13.  Do you shop online or in stores? More online now a days and I LOVE it.
 
14.  Photo cards, letter, or store bought card? Photo cards for sure.

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!!

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...
