Jingle Bells Batman Smells Robin laid an egg.

Oh wait, that's right, I'm 36 not 6. I just loved singing that when I was little. Along with my "Christmas with Patti Page" album and the Chipmunks.
My favorite Christmas song, well I have to say as far as modern music goes it would be "Christmas Eve" by the Trans Siberian Orchestra. Very moving. I love their whole Christmas Eve video it is beautiful. All the music, the story, the visions. My favorite traditional Christmas carol would be "Carol of the Bells"

Kat, I'm glad you decided to give in to the Christmas Spirit. It is only a few weeks away. I'm with you, I love the snow. I am going to love shovelling my own driveway.

2Cute, Mmmm.... Lasagna, I love Lasagna. What do you do to make it more healthy? I know, I shouldn't have the ice cream for the sore throat, it made my throat feel worse anyway.

Gmalil, I understand how you feel I was the same way when I moved to Wisconsin, but we really haven't gotten much in the area I'm in. I should be careful what I wish for though, it will probably blizzard when I am moving into my house.

So with that, while Jingle Bells play in the background,

ON THE SECOND DAY OF CHRISTMAS
MY TRUE LOVE GAVE TO ME:
TWO TURTLES DOVES AND A
PARTRIDGE IN A PEAR TREE!

Michelle,

You were posting the same time I was. Ummm... I will have to decline on coming over to pack up your clothes, as I have to pack up the rest of my house also along with my clothes. However, I'll come help you unpack them next year.

On the third day of Christmas
my true love gave to me:

Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
and a Partridge in a pear tree.


By the way, Skittles: You beat me to it. My favorite carol is Carol of the Bells as well.

To hear Skittles and my favorite carol, you may go to this link.
http://www.mswm.org/christmas_carol/...rolofbells.htm

Carol of the Bells

Hark how the bells,
sweet silver bells,
all seem to say,
throw cares away

Christmas is here,
bringing good cheer,
to young and old,
meek and the bold,

Oh how they pound,
raising the sound,
o'er hill and dale,
telling their tale,

Gaily they ring
while people sing
songs of good cheer,
Christmas is here,

Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
On on they send ,
on without end,
their joyful tone to every home
Dong Ding dong ding, dong Bong

I'm off and running. Have a great day. Love ya bunches!

Thumbs up

On the Fourth Day of Christmas
My True love gave to me...
Four ... La la la la's
Three French Hens
Two Turtle doves
And a Partridge in a Pear Tree.


Can someone help me out ????? Gee.. this is embarrassing.
I am a member of this CHOIR not a soloist.
I am the one in the back row... lip singing and smiling.

I blame it on Jingle Bells playing in the back ground AND I made up my own song this morning.

"Ohhhhh ... I am making a list...
checking it twice.
I'm gonna make today ...
No naughtys ...ALL nice.
Santa clause is coming to town."

On the Fifth Day of Christmas,
My True love gave to me...
FIVE GOLDEN RINGS!
Four Calling birds
Three French Hens
Two Turtle doves
And a Partridge in a Pear Tree.



Memoe: Just use your points finder for each item, add them up, and divide by how many servings to get points value for each serving. That's what I do and I have the recipe builder thing online...it's just easier than typing all that stuff in!

I just did some more shopping, on line...Oh, how I love shopping barefoot! With a cup of coffee by my side. Sitting on my a$$!

Time for some decorating...see you later!

My favorite is probably "I'll Be Home For Christmas". I know that sentiment well; Andria and I have yet to spend a Christmas together. There's usually a family obligation or something else; last year, we got to spend up until the 23rd though

Hopefully only three more Christmases before I won't have to spend it with her only in my dreams

I love "I'll be Home for Christmas" as well, I also like "So this is Christmas?" and the other.. "Santa Baby" (the original).. I've been listening to so many christmas songs since the day after thanksgiving, theres a ton I love.

Well, I'm still dealing with studying crazily and exams (3 more).. but I've gotten a bit more on track since math is out of the way and thats the one I needed to stress over the most.

I've been eating on track, and today my water is back in my system and I'm almost certain I'll be able to start working out again. I put up my Santa's List finally on the wall and started to get a track of how I've been doing.

I have such a headache from studying Drives me nuts. I did clean my room yesterday so I'm happy about that - makes me feel more inplace and its easier to pe productive.

I lost a pack of stamps though so my cards may be a little late.. bought tons of cards however. Pissed about the stamps because I had JUST bought them and they just "disappeared" I think my room mate tossed them (he has a habit of just throwing away everything in sight) but oh well.

Hope all of you are doing well! I'll be hanging around more soon, I promise

Okay... I still don't know the words of "The 12 days of Christmas" ... who knows What the 6th day is ??

I am doing GREAT with my goals for today.
I may be going out to eat tonight. Tonight is our 35th Wedding Anniversary.
We dated for almost 3 years before that.
BUT.. it is DOWNPOURING RAIN here... so we may just wait until tomorrow to celebrate. I am not much into wobbling in the rain when all dresssed up.

I had a very dear friend send me this web site about weight loss and SLEEP.
Thought you might find it interesting too. If not... just don't go read. LOL
I have always had a bad sleeping habit.

http://abcnews.go.com/Health/story?id=305906&page=1

Okay... gotta go.
"I'm dreaming of a WHITE Christmas ... Just like the ones I used to know.... "

2cute: I'm not surprised at all. I know how hard it was to lose weight when my sleep apnea was getting really bad. All of the metabolic things aside, you're just sooo _tired_ when you don't get enough sleep. Makes it that much harder to get up, get moving, and lose the weight that caused the apnea in the first place; it's a vicious cycle.

Howdy! Just a quick check in before I leave. I'm in the process of doing laundry as there is nothing to pack unless I get it done.

Our flight leaves out at 9:45 AM so our friends want us to be at their house by 6:00 AM. I'm like, it takes an hour to get to the airport, what are we going to do for almost 3 hours? Well, the woman that we're going with says, that's what all my paper work says, get there 2-3 hours ahead of time. Well crud! I vote for closer to 2 hours rather than 3!!!! But in an effort to keep the peace, I will keep my mouth shut and go with the flow.

We have a through flight to Vegas so I'm hoping for some sleepy time.

The other couple is flying first class (la de da) so at least we won't have to be chatting the whole trip.

Anyway, enough of that. I just stopped in to say toodles before I leave.

Andria: I don't think it's going to be feasible for us to meet up. Since we're going with this other couple, and they have the car, I don't think much of my time will be my own.

You guys take care. Keep on singing. I want some great stuff to read when I get home. And BTW, don't be surprised if I check on you while I'm gone. I am taking a laptop with me to check on business and I just might check in here too.

Love ya bunches.
