Christmas meme
“Elissa” from “Managing Autism” has tagged me this Christmas meme - tis the season to be tagged, it would appear.
“When people say ‘Christmas’ you immediately think…â€
Quick! Remember to say ‘Holiday!’ Remember which land mass you’re on!
“Favourite Christmas memory…â€
Forgotten.
“Favourite Christmas song/carol…â€
‘God rest ye Merry Gentlemen’ but only if choral [to save us all from Satan's power!] Strangely I know every word and yet I don’t remember learning them.
“Favourite Christmas movie…â€
The Snowman by Raymond Briggs
“Favourite Christmas character…â€
Are there any? Father Christmas?
“Favourite Christmas ornament/object…â€
See picture above, made by my eldest daughter’s fair hands 20 years ago.
“Plans for this Christmas…â€
Home with the family in-between packing for England and the “Wedding.”
“Is Christmas your favourite holiday?â€
Yes.
So I shall tag:-
“Art in the Garage”
“Patois” at “Whee All The Way Home.”
“Angela” at “Memoirs of a Chaotic Mommy”
“The Ironic Catholic” that has to be a winner!
And “elasticwaistbandlady” at “The Smiling Infidel,” what a combination.
Sorry it’s so short but I’m preparing for the “sleepover” and I have a head-cold.
p.s. if you are one of the many kindly souls that sent me an ‘e-card’ and wonder why I have been so rude in not responding, have already crossed me off your Christmas card list for next year and are thoroughly miffed by my cold hearted rebuff, this is due to one of the following:-
a] the card is virtually real or
b] really virtual
and I am unable to distinguish one from the other. One or the other threatens to virtually wipe out my computer and really send me reeling, so I don’t open either.
Cheers dearies

Best of luck for the sleepover - may you find a moment for a brief snooze!!! (And may the menu be a success!)
PS - I love Christmas ornament!

Your words relay your condition- kind of pooped! A little sleep is probably not happening until the party has gone home!

A sleep over! Ahhhhh! You are a brave brave woman! Toady we prepare for a birthday party. I need to get busy but I am procrastinating!

The ornie made by your daughter is lovely! :o)
Are you looking forward to the wedding? I imagine having a duplicate ceremony can be a bit tricky…
Hope the cold is gone SOON!

Hmm. Another tag? I’m still catching up from ones in November; I may not get to this before Christmas!
December 15th, 2007 at 8:36 am
Good luck with the sleepover!!

We have been terrible about Xmas cards for the past 2 years—-I always want to do something more than simply signing our names on a card! The ornament reminds me of some I made once upon a school day years ago…..

good luck with the sleepover, watch out for any pillow fights with that head-cold

I always say Merry Christmas on this land mass or any other!
December 15th, 2007 at 6:13 pm
Okay Dokay… I am game. I’ll link to you when it’s done.
December 15th, 2007 at 9:35 pm
Hope all goes well w/ the sleepover, get some rest!
December 17th, 2007 at 6:12 am
Ok, so I’ve been ignoring the internet for my family.
But I’m back online and I’ll get around to this sometime this week. Hope the sleepover went well.

I’m so way behind, but I’m getting to this today. The last week has been full of illnesses around here…and then parties to prepare for, a school newspaper to get out, and a field trip to top it off. Blech. But I’ve been done shopping and I did almost all the wrapping in one fell swoop yesterday. So I’m tackling this. Now. (Tho I likely won’t publish until tomorrow. OCD, don’t you know?)
