From what I hear, Weather is coming. In fact, it may even turn into truly cold weather (i.e., coastal plain cold -- in the 40s). <br /><br />I love Christmas and do celebrate, but my favorite week of the entire year is the week between Christmas and New Year's, for just the reasons you cite. Everything slows a bit, most people are either in the stores or off somewhere doing something, and it's the perfect time to begin slouching toward the new year. Well, and to do some housecleaning. My Swedish grandmother instilled the need to have a perfectly clean house before the New Year. I have a ways to go.shoreacreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284698314697628805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-10804043540404799122015-12-26T05:58:28.053-06:002015-12-26T05:58:28.053-06:00While I am not complaining about ice or snow.

I am sure the insects will be twice as bad this summer. I just want SOME cold weather.Taborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15257045780724471840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-79492098520844233532015-12-25T20:08:39.087-06:002015-12-25T20:08:39.087-06:00At least you're able to get a lot done while y...At least you're able to get a lot done while you're not celebrating! I kind of wish I didn't celebrate Christmas either, but with my family ties it's pretty much an obligation.<br /><br />I love that photo of the dogs with the line of old trucks in the background!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-27180367698934941632015-12-25T07:31:26.948-06:002015-12-25T07:31:26.948-06:00Same flooring as in my farm bathroom it looks.It s...Same flooring as in my farm bathroom it looks.It snowed hard yesterday, total white out.Plans to melt in a few daze.Out on the prairiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548162534362532705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-937161704717718332015-12-24T22:48:18.847-06:002015-12-24T22:48:18.847-06:00Snowy cold and winter for sure here.

I'll trade ya.<br />As to religiosity......well you know my story of having worked in a church and found it was the hardest thing to keep faith in an Almighty or his children. but that's just me.<br />The only label I put on people anymore is friend if they are and not so much if they aren't. You my dear heart are most certainly my friend. So happy everything to you and Marc.<br />BTW, we have the same flooring in our main bath. So I guess we are flooring twins. tee hee<br />xoxo Oma LindaOmaLindasOldeBaggsandStuftShirtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09589622524456973822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-49932330423022410992015-12-24T20:51:17.752-06:002015-12-24T20:51:17.752-06:00I guess the Northwest is one of the few places whe...I guess the Northwest is one of the few places where it's rainier and colder than usual.

Either way- ugh. <br />And we're about to go to my daughter's Christmas Eve party and I have a ton of food to take and the thought of all of it makes me feel a bit wretched. I have no idea what to wear- the red velvet is definitely OUT.<br />And the cat I thought was dead? <br />No. She's alive. <br />What a strange day. <br />Those freaking inflatable Christmas decorations should be outlawed.
