Can you believe that it is almost Thanksgiving? Usually by this time in November, I have all of my trees up, the lawn decorated and have heard “Run Run Rudolph” 3000 times. This year, I’m having a difficult time getting into the spirit. I sort of feel like Rudolph when he lost his glow...all my bells have lost their jingle.
Speaking of jingling bells, have you seen Kmart’s "Jingle Bells" commercial? If not, you have lucked up tonight because it can be found right here? You really should check it out, but first let me provide you with a disclaimer: "This commercial quite possible could be rated PG13 - ok maybe PG17 - but it’s still worth a watch (or 12)!"
Seriously, who is shopping at Kmart this Christmas? I know I am!!!
Back to the blog. This weather…let me get into the Facebook spirit of Thanksgiving… Day 19 – I am very thankful that we have weather; however, I wish Mother Nature would make up her mind. Do you want me warm and cozy and snuggled by the fire or do you want me sipping on margaritas at the beach? I guess if you ask a man, Mother Nature is just like every other woman on earth...just can’t make up her mind.
Last week it was snow flurries and hot chocolate and this week it is sunshine and bikinis. Strike that. Reverse it, unless of course that mental image is already burned into your brain. I doubt I will ever be seen in a bi-kini again. Some really cute shorts and a tank top could work though. Moving on…
Whether I wish it so or not, there are halls to be decked, songs to be sung, presents to be wrapped, goodwill to be spread and eggnog to be made. On second thought…if I make the eggnog first, everything else might just go a little smoother.
Truthfully, I love Christmas. It is my most "favoritest" holiday ever (and I'm not just saying that because of all the huge presents I get *wink*wink*). Sometimes I just need a little push or maybe a great big shove to get me started.
Where is Cindy Lou Who when you need her? I think a quick trip to Whoville is in the stars tonight!
What makes Christmas magical for you? What jingle your bells?
By the way, only in the south can Christmas and bikinis be talked about at the same time and no one finds it unusual.
Peace and Love and Chocolate!!!
