Oh!!! That is simply f'ing beautiful!!! Boy are you talented. Well, it made my Christmas... A bottle of tequila and that tree, there ya go
Wow! Now thats a very decorated room & tree!
Ok kids, back from my early morning kayaking adventure. Really nice and clear. Blue sky. Sunny & bright. No wind.
Saw a bunch of different birds, including many Bald Eagles. Got some great early morning, very still photos...ogh, the water is now officially “cold”. I paddled through large sections of water that had already iced over. Not thick. But enough to make it hard to oaddle through.
Here’s one representative photo of today’s trip. Ok, maybe three.
Enjoy the rest of your evenings and days!

Turns out what I thought was a crack in the tile was actually the edge of some lead flashing so noting to fix that I could find. Will have to get a roofer out after the holidays to check further up. So no acrobatics out of windows for me after all, but thank you so much for your concern.
Could it be that they think they were putting you to a lot of trouble and that you'd be glad of not having to help? It is pretty thoughtless of them not to consider your Xmas though.
I miss my Dad too - he died on Xmas Eve 32 years ago and Xmas has not been the same since.
He loved Xmas though and would hate the thought of spoiling our day.
Also miss my Mum too - her Xmas lunches are legendary and we all still talk about them and all the work she put into the day.
I've since lost my eldest sister and this is our first Xmas without my brother, but I have such lovely memories of all our Christmases together when we were a family of 8.
I think there will be many people having a different sort of Xmas this year, but I hope it will be a healthy and peaceful time for everyone even if its not as happy as usual.
Us sillys will be here. So no worries. Just make them quarantine before they come back through your door ?
For you UK folks ordering online.........be careful how & what you select. ??
Looks like a lovely feast of desserts for starters ? we're allowed cause we're adults.Good mornooning all.
I thought I’d share some Christmas baking with you. The electronic version is calorie free so tuck in
Christmas Cake (fruit cake) baked by daughter a couple of months back and decorated yesterday. It’s been maturing and fed with brandy weekly. The colours don’t show well in my photo; those trees are a darker green than that! And there are sparkly stars on the “snow”
Yule log (chocolate swiss roll filled and covered with buttercream) made and decorated by daughter yesterday

Mince pies baked by me with homemade mincemeat. They’re great warm or cold and particularly good with brandy cream. I make a cheat’s version which is simply mascarpone mixed with dark muscovado sugar and a little brandy.

I'd wait till next year. It's to pretty and their loss.? Maybe dust it now and then. I love your little tortoise things adding to the Christmas cheer.
? You might put up a be aware sign on the bathroom door to keep him safer.?
That's interesting that you have an Aldi in the UK. Is that a store or a company? We have a grocery store chain here called Aldi's.

I do the same too. I remember all the treasured times. Boy I had a lot of wonderful Christmases... sad though..
People this year have to go through what we are feeling for their first time.
I wish them all peace and healing soon.
As I wish for you too..
How can one holiday be 1/2 happy and then 1/2 so sad??
This is why shrinks make a lot of money!!
omg!! You didn’t???
lmao!!
?????
I needed that.
Sorry for your pain but ... well.... at least you won’t get kicked outta bed tonight?
(Maybe just rolled to the other side.)
Hahahaha ???????
