It's time to break out the Christmas CD's, LC (I"m sure you already have by now). The neighbors might think you're nuts, seeing the Christmas lights and hearing the music in early November, but there are worse things you could be doing. If it makes you feel better, then that's all that matters.

I hope you are feeling better, by the way. :-6

Hey LC...are you going to set up your little Christmas village? Or is it already set up?:o

I got my wife two new houses for her little town this year. One of them is a ballroom with big windows and real dancers dancing inside. The other is an iceskating pond with ice skaters who skate around magnetically...it's just beautiful!

She's gonna love it.

lady cop · Post by **lady cop** » Sat Nov 05, 2005 11:22 am

Jives do you collect Dickens' series? if so i have the ballroom, i think it's scrooge's nephew fred's house, really enchanting!! here is a portion of my village....honestly i love it so much but don't have the strength to get it all set up yet. it's a huge job! maybe later...

Never have a clue ???? doesn't bode well for your new carreer Wolfy...

You must be reading the wrong threads.....but we luv you anyway....

I'll be honest, LC....I live at the very frontier of civilization. We just pick up whatever we can get here, and it's a rather hardscrabble lot. Just the occasional spectacular piece. It's 300 miles in any direction to a city from where I live, so our selection is less than great.

Even the catalog companies haven't found our address yet, and if they do, when we order they tell us, "We don't ship out of the country." Poor New Mexico. (sigh):o

google Dept. '56 for lots of collections and ideas! it is addicting however!! but it means Christmas to me every year. i order a lot of my pieces online, it's easier to get the new pieces and keep up with retirement pieces, they do an official retirement day on Nov. 25....i know you are probably not as obsessed with it as i am, but there is a huge contingent of '56 collectors out there. and retired pieces can bring a fortune, although i would never let a piece go.

Raven · Post by **Raven** » Mon Nov 07, 2005 7:54 am

Florida is one of those places like Arizona where you just have to PRETEND! Buy yourself some spray on snow, and cut some snowflakes put them on your windows, and you have instant snowglobe!

That's interesting LC, because it's at THIS time of year I'm most ready for Christmas...Not at Christmas for crying out loud, waaay too stressed out by then....I get anxious to have Christmas, kind of skip on through the turkey!

chrisb84uk · Post by **chrisb84uk** » Tue Nov 08, 2005 6:53 am

Me too I'm already excited about Christmas even though it's still a while away. I'm just gonna have to sing some Christmas carols to keep me in the mood. Feel free anyone who wants to join in: :yh_whistl

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer

had a very shiny nose.

And if you ever saw him,

you would even say it glows.

All of the other reindeer

used to laugh and call him names.

They never let poor Rudolph

join in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve

Santa came to say:

"Rudolph with your nose so bright,

won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then all the reindeer loved him

as they shouted out with glee,

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,

you'll go down in history!

I could use a little Xmas today, my boss is on the warpath. I'm just hiding out in my office avoiding him, and my workload

Mostly just sending text messages to my boyfriend, but I have to be super speedy so I don't get caught. Been honing my skills here: www.texfast.t9.com, soon I will have the fastest fingers in all the land! Sigh, work is so boring...
