she was.... disarming

A hard night’s work.

"Christmas; it’s not the giving, it’s not the getting, it’s the loving."

So - I did this today - put Lucy’s (my dog) Mrs. Claus dress on Maggie (that’s the cat) needless to say she was not impressed.

I’m turning into one of those people that dresses their cats. (I’ve been one of those people that dresses their dog for four years now - guess that’s the gateway drug)

Fuck. Yes. Christmas Tree Cakes. This makes this thick girl very happy.

Finally decorated the tree last night!! (Obviously this is just a cell phone pic of lights on my living room chaise, not my tree - you know - in case someone thought Sparky was so inept that I couldn’t properly light a tree and I just clumped them on there and said “Merry Christmas!!”)

Isn’t there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?”

“Sure, Charlie Brown, I can tell you what Christmas is all about.
Lights, please.
‘And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, ‘Fear not: for behold, I bring unto you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.’ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying, ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.’ That’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
