I heard this song on my way home from the grocery this morning and LOVED it. Came right home, hit the radio station's website to attempt to figure out who it was. It is so different and quite delightful.

7 perhaps but not in the happy, happy joy joy everybody party hearty type of mood. For instance, I went to sleep last night listening to Garrison Keiler read the Nativity Story

I love all versions of God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen. It is probably my absolute favorite Christmas song. I love encountering new arrangements/presentations of it. Thanks Honey

The current set I have was purchased from the Knights of Columbus at church. Some cards are specially selected at the store and I always send out email cards

I don't have everything in hand but I do know what it is I want to get. Being gone for training for two weeks recently really messed up my rhythm this year

Store bought...

Entrée ~

Hell yes, it was required as a kid ;-) Take the hinges off the secret closet in the cellar, then cut the tape on the seam and replace the magic tape exactly (pays to be slightly OCD ;-) Oh! then replace the screws on the hinges ;-)

Happy Holidays to make sure I don't offend. Unless I am sure of the recipient's holiday, then the appropriate greeting is said...

Yes. But all the gifts are in NY in amazon.com boxes and still require wrapping (I'll be there Monday to handle that ;-)

I'd say about 8. I'm more prepared this year than usual which allows time for baking cookies, friends and reflection.

It's nice. I also Like Sarah McLachlan's version of What Child is This?

I have some store bought cards that are still in the box, unopened. I guess I should get those in the mail today. I have sent a couple of cards online to people far away.

Entree ~
Have you secretly unwrapped a gift before Christmas?
No. I like to be surprised.

Dessert ~

Merry Christmas!

Mostly. Just a few odds and ends left to pull together.
