  • to hear sleighbells in the snow
  • Ting! Ting! Ting! Ting!....in descending scale.

    Today should be merry and bright although I have dense fog....that's outside, not mental. I'm feeling very Christmassy and kind of warm and fuzzy because of all the donations we are getting for the Christmas food baskets and the toy drive.
  • Great news on donations RUTH!

    Don't forget to go to General Chatter and vote for my daughter in law!
  • Bet those votes are adding up, Gary!

    Hey, you all could have started a new game-a song each day till Christmas!

    Hope you're all having a good morning (afternoon, for Dutchgirl, of course!)
  • I kind of like the song "What is Christmas?" by Trans Siberian Orchestra. It is a tongue in cheek criticism of Christmas. It just makes me laugh. My favorite part is where he sings "the reason for Christmas I now realize... is an excuse to tolerate snow... snow... I don't even like the sound of it..."

    That's me!!!
  • Diane-- I laugh every time I hear it. my favorite line " a reason to tolorate snow. Snow I don't even like the sound of it."
  • Oh my, I don't even think I have heard that song!
  • Don't know that song. Sounds fun.The last couple of days have been bright and sunny and colder than a witches whatnots here. I love this weather. I wear ski-pants on the scooter to and from work. maybe I look a right idiot but at least I am a warm idiot
  • I'd never heard of that song either, but being the curious type I googled.

    What Is Christmas? Trans_Siberian Orchestra
  • That song is on my shuffle...but then so is EVERY other Trans Siberian Christmas song!
  • Brrrr! 9F this morning. I'm off later today for a short trip and will be taking my warmest coat and scarf and hat and mittens and whatever else it takes. Maybe Scotch?

    Try not to hit 500 when I'm gone, OK?
  • We don't keep promises around here RUTH

    Sounds like a challenge to me.
  • Enjoy your trip, Ruth!
  • Well, Bargoo started this thread so she's in charge of closing it if she wants. Be nice to her.

    The real reason we stick to 500 posts is to give the MODs something to do to earn their incredible salaries.
