Neighbors light the street so I don't have to - and set to music no less. I've got your Holly Jolly right here... |
1. How goes your holiday readying? Holiday
cards sent? Decorations up? Tree? Cookies making? If not, you can join
me in the lounge of the "I'll Get To That" Club...
2.
The Granddog, AKA The Wild Animal will be joining us for the Holidays.
Have I mentioned he can rest his chin on the kitchen table, and sweep
bookshelves with his tail? He is good-natured, luckily. The Corgis
school him in his proper place in the pack. At the bottom. Even though
he can step over them with ease. Placing all foodstuffs up very high or
away for his visit. Do you have any strange guests coming to visit?
3.
The Muse picks the busiest time of year to hang about. Write a poem on
this, this, and this. Here's some more info for Fantasy Novel Two. You
know, you haven't written a short story in a while... Argh. It's like
having two playful kittens and a table full of china cups living in your
head. And the Muse has control of the laser pointer.
4.
I'm a bit irked my hobbies make me do math. I'm used to winging it on
things. Unfortunately, weaving and knitting are demanding cusses, and
I'm forced to calculate if I want a project to come out right. Last time
I didn't calculate things out properly, I ended up with a woven scarf
that was two feet too short. Kid sized. I'm calling it an ascot and
moving on. And calculating, damn it.
5. What
I've been reading - The Martian, by Andy Weir. A science fiction novel
about an astronaut who is accidentally stranded on Mars, alone, after
his crew lifts off without him. The book follows his attempts to
improvise what he needs to survive, and contact NASA to find out if they
can rescue him. I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Packed with science and humor. Highly recommended.
Guest Dog, AKA Bruno. Big dog is big. Can leap Corgis by lifting a foot. But Max and Merlin still boss him around. |

OMG - the dog is huge! And adorable. Look at that face. The only strange guest we're having is us. :-) The holiday readying is getting done in fits and starts. Pour a glass of wine, write a card, have a cookie, wrap a present, water the tree, admire the lights, have another glass....we pace ourselves.
Your holiday readying sounds perfect. We have wine and rum on hand here for present wrapping. Bought the birds a new feeder for Christmas. Maybe I won't have to fill it every five minutes. :)
My word, Bruno has grown since the pictures you posted of him as a puppy!
Happy Christmas!
He's just gorgeous!
Carla - He can rest his head on the kitchen table. And he's still growing...
Oonah - Pretty, but kinda dumb I'm afraid. But sweet-natured.
I didn't know you lived in Whoville!
If you see the Grinch,please try to get his autograph.
Whoville is just a stone's throw away. No sign of the Grinch just yet.
