Being that I'm considered a Country Bumpkin' I find it very difficult to fit in with the City Slickers crowd... Last night's party in town was nice, but I felt like a mouse amongst the cats.

It's called Seasonal Affective Disorder. It's a real issue. Check it out, might give you new perspective.

The water fountain outside my window sounds peaceful, but until I open the blinds, it always sounds like it's raining. I am amazed when I actually get up, open the blinds and see the sun shining here in the PNW in the winter! It is cold, but beautiful out.

It occurred to me to say what I wanted to say in private. But no, I think you need to be called out for this totally dismissive comment....especially from you, Jet.

First, have some compassion. Open your eyes and look around to see that someone MIGHT be in pain this time of year.

I am one of those people. For, try as I might ~ and believe me, I DO ~ this time of the year IS very hard for me because I lost a child. We will never ever again share the joy of opening a present together under the tree.

Now I'm not asking for a pity party. I go through an entire year doing my best to deal so that people like you aren't uncomfortable.

There are very few things that make me see red. Congratulations. You did it.

Cookies can be mailed. Yes, yes they can. They survive quite nicely if wrapped in waxed paper, stuffed delicately in freezer bags, then wrapped in air bubbles or bubble wrap and put in a shipping box.
Cookies in the mail are one of the best ever holiday prezzies.

Not that Im hinting.

But my address is on the holiday greeting card list.

Got a lot done this weekend:

Some Christmas shopping.

Helping my folks decorate the house and putting up and decorating the tree.

Cleaning up the mess from decorating.

Went to my kid's house (she lives with her grandma) today and helped my daughter's boyfriend put lights on the house.

Visited and had dinner with my kid, her boyfriend and grandma.

Got home and snuggled with the dog.

I'm very sorry I hurt you. It wasn't my intention at all. take care.
Addendum: my post was totally misread. I guess it doesn't matter.

I've been feeling like shit over the weekend

and still not up to par, so I decided to call in sick today. I figured I'd be a couch potato and catch up on some of my recorded DVR shows and rest. So here I lay snuggling with my comfy blankie, and remote in hand.

All of a sudden my boy cat decides to play Tarzan and climb the damn Christmas tree. He's spazzing out

running back and forth, ornaments on the floor, and trying to eat the fake pine needles.

I'm contemplating making some sort of barrier to go around the tree or even getting one of those gates, but he'll jump it. So much for me getting some rest. Not to mention this annoying cough..

Now he's sleeping sound, looking innocent and cute,

like he didn't do a thing.
