SATURDAY DECEMBER 12, 2015

My recurring Christmas nightmare begins about July every year. It motivates me to prepare early for the big festivities. Well, this year, my nightmare is true! I'm nowhere near ready! Whhhaaatttt? LOL



I awoke at 3:30 ... then 3:45; well you know! I gave up and started wrapping Christmas gifts at 4 a.m.  Mark planned hunting with Lew and Ben, so no problem there; he was ready to get up. Of course, he had to tease me by wringing his hands like my mother would do. Oh No! I'm not ready for Christmas!!! LOL What a household. Anyway, by 11 a.m. I'd wrapped and written a few Christmas cards, now an archaic practice with email  and Facebook. Mark dashed in from hunting at 11:30 and went to the post office to mail 1 eBay parcel, a little something for my pal in Tulsa and the cards. I guess EVERYONE was up early with the same idea! There were 17 folks in line already! 

Well K's are ready to load their sleigh, er Escalade! Go on, add to my nightmare. LOL

Bonnie (and Roger) are very busy bathing  7 puppies who are learning to eat "solid" food. 
Apparently, someone fell in. Cute!!! 

Speaking of Christmas cards. Yesterday, Mark and I received our first two in the mail. One from Jack and Carol and the other from Randy and Dawn. 

LOL ... They are identical ... Mailed the same day and received on December 11th at our house from different ends of Florida. 

It's such a gorgeous day we sat on the front porch for happy hour and FaceTime with Bonnie. Robbie grunted and growled (talked) to his auntie. He's a very unique Scottie. We're planning a road trip "before spring" to T-Town for a visit ... and to bring home retiring show girl, Robbie's half-sister, Belize. Obviously she's a beauty, but more importantly, she has personality plus. 


Happy hour Granola Milkbone & cheese  Robbie's a perfect character himself and a little serious. He needs, we need, Belize. Yay. 

We're off to bed early tonight having skipped a Christmas party. It's back to work at the Orlando house as the carpet was laid today. Git er done!
