just had the bosses right hand man on the phone, he's working with me tomorrow... show time 
When i was a small child my two younger brothers and I really loved Christmas.
Christmas Day was special, of course, and the day after was Boxing Day when we'd go to grandma's and grandad's and get more presents under their tree and have a second Christmas dinner.The day after was Thank You Day, when we had to write all our than yous to the relatives and friends who'd sent us gifts, vouchers or money.
Christmas Eve was busy, last minute shopping, wrapping, certain family traditions and all good fun.
So what about the day before which was the day to get really excited about the next few days ?
What comes before an Eve ? A morn, or an afternoon didn't seem right.
So I came up with the thought of what comes first, the chicken or the egg ?, then what comes first, the turkey or the egg?
The egg is first, so therefore Christmas Egg was the day before. ( I was only a small child).
Anyway, my brothers are long gone, now, but the tradition of a relaxing Christmas Egg continues to this day!
Thanks, Kathy!Hello Adam!! Merry Christmas Egg to you too!!
Sounds like you have great Christmas memories.
Ohhhh! Love that show! All 3 of my children were singing in their school junior choir and couple of years ago I was chaperoning their tour around Austin where their entire show was from this movie. I still remember most of the songs. Great music/lyrics. Is everyone ready for Christmas yet? Or whatever you Guys celebrate?
And very gratefully when they see the contents, I'm sure.my secret santa gift was received on time.
No, ta!Go to New Zealand! It's summertime for them, so their traditional Christmas celebration is a barbecue on the beach!!!![]()
I'll be sure to pop into your water turtle posts, BeaWe are having internet problems here at home, so I am not likely to be on much until it's sorted out.
When I CAN get on, it will likely be in the water turtle section to help with my new turtle.
If I don't get on here before then, a very Merry Christmas to all Cold Dark Roomers!!!!!![]()

I have terrific memories of happy times as a young child, unfortunately, not so good, the older I got.
But I prefer to think of those happy days!
