Son's family next door got their tree yesterday/Sun. The weather was marvelous for doing so. Not really *Seasonal,* but warm enough to have fun taking a horse-drawn wagon around, looking for trees, etc. Usually it's sooooooooooo cold/windy that they hurry around, with the kids bundled against the cold, and it's not-so-fun.
...
And they came home and put up nearly all their decorations!!! Their home looks like something out of Dickens! :-)))))) I just couldn't get going, over the weekend. But we have to begin today/Monday!!!!!!!! ~~~~~~ And do our Mon. Cleaning Schedule too!!!!!

I seem to have a not-so-lovely cough going this morning. Hack,hack, hack...Already took 'cough syrup'. I think 'mucus relief' will be next. And lots of 'Hall's Honey Menthol cough drops'... I put off take 'Alegra' till the *last possible moment,* because it makes me sleepy. Yikes!!!!!! I don't need to be sleepy, this particular Monday!!! :-)
...
Lovely topics all, hu???? NOT!!!! -grin- -sorry-♫♡♫
Oh I hope that if you are watching "Once Upon A Time," you were able to tune in last night. I'm just loving that program. Whimsical, pretty, magical, (mostly) soft happenings, ,-).... Love it!!!
...
And I think my FAVORITE character, is not one of the "Pretty Ones." Not even the "Prettiest Evil One." ,-) Nope. I love watching "Mr. Gold"!!! Creepy, scary, yes. But.... You know how that kind of a part, can "steal the show" as they say. -grin-
...
Who is your favorite Character, Dear Reader? Which one do you love most, to get to watch?

My computer had been "slowwwwwwwing down" in ways, over the weekend. Sure enough, this morning, it said it "couldn't connect."<---The dreaded words of doooom! -sigh- Usually I have to have "Uncle A." make sure everything is properly plugged in. But this morning, I did that myself. And I got it to work again!!! I am soooooooo proud of myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -chuckle-

Time to make the real Oatmeal, for breakfast. Not instant. The real stuff which you do on the stove and simmer, for 3-5 minutes. "Uncle A." suggested that, last night. I'll surprise him, by actually doing it. :-))))))))))))
.
It's very warm and not really Oatmeal weather. But we had eggs yesterday, so today is time for something else. And we need to have a good breakfast, since we've got a lot to do today. (I think I hear him pulling out the Christmas Decorations boxes already, upstairs!) :-)......

wow you sound busy busy busy. my two little 2 foot trees were taken out of the bags they reside in and plugged in and small ornaments hung, all on TG day. does that make you jealous? i am sure not. your kitchen proves you love to decorate. can't wait to see photos of everything and have fun, sorry you are sick.
I'll do the best I can with decorating this year, but, as you know, we will be moving on the 15th. Doesn't leave much time for decorating. I 'will' definitely have the tree up, though. It's been at least 10 years since I have had a lighted tree.
Take care of that cough.

Hello Auntie! I'm out and about in blogland this morning seeing what all's going on. Been busy, busy around here and I've not been able to post.
I really love how cozy your kitchen looks with the twinkle lights! I plan on incorporating lots of twinkles around my little farmhouse, too!
Oh I'm glad to see a picture of little Gabe with his curly hair. Looks like he's eating well ;)
Ok, now get to decorating - I wanna see!
Me, too, on the cough thingie...
Sorry you have a cold, not much fun when you have so much work to do. Great blog today and it looks so good, I need to perk up my blog.
The artist of my puzzle is Bonnie White and she has designed a ornament for the blue room Christmas tree at the White House. I think that was in 2007.
Where's your echincea? John woke with "a cold" yesterday and got his four caplets plus two this morning and he's nearly right as rain. I'm taking mine so as not to get his.
Oh it's so Christmasy in here. I love it. Yes, the Advent calendar is lovely. Very. Hooray for a good day for gathering in the tree. Sounds wonderful. Do you ever go along for the ride?
Yes, I like Mr. Gold very much. That actor is doing a brilliant job. I do very much enjoy the scenes that he is in. I don't think I'm nearly as smitten by any of the others. I liked the Snow White character when she was hiding out from the Wicked Queen. I'd like to know more of the back story there.

I don't watch the show but maybe i should start.
Not Christmas around my house yet. I don't put anything up until the first or second week in Dec.
Love your new header and the lights!
We always make the 'cook it' kind of oatmeal, too! Made a batch a few days ago and added some raisins to it. We make enough for a couple of breakfasts!
Hope your cough gets better! My oldest daughter came over after a doctor appointment for the same thing! She is asleep in the guest room as I write. He said she was worn out and needed REST! Perhaps you need a little bit of that as well.
I am off to get the decoration sdown from the shed attic. I keep the fall ones here in the house attic. Glad I have TWO!
Grrrrr!! Thank goodness you're watching Once upon a time! I WAS watching it (Snow White one) and when I went to watch the END of that storyline, they were on to I think Cinderella??? WHAT Happened to the Snow White story ending?
Oh well...
Hope you get to feeling better friend!!

Hello Sweetie
Love that you are up and raring to go today. Sorry to hear about that cough - do take care.
Yumm...I love oatmeal. Do you add milk and brown sugar?
I've been eating protien for breakfast - hard boiled eggs are my go during the week.
You asked about my favorite character? I love Mr Gold too - he is creepy.
Enjoy the season!

Thanks for your lovely Thanksgiving wishes, and I hope you and your family enjoyed yours. Pretty lights to brighten your lovely home. I'm not familiar with that TV program, but sounds interesting, so I'm going to look it up. Enjoy your Christmas decorating, and I hope your cough goes away soon. :)
