Our oldest 'Grand', our beautiful Kate, arrived home from college, late yesterday afternoon. -happy sigh- Now we are all in our "Home Town." :-) She has been taking exams... The last one was Mon. morning. Now she can R-E-L-A-X... :-)

I finally got some "stain remover" to put on those pesky food stains, which we seem to get on clothing. (Near as *bad* as little kids, we are!!! -sigh- -grin-) The stuff you dab on the spot, before washing it, and let it sit for a bit. ~~~~~~ Well I realized that I finally had a PLACE to DO things LIKE this. There's a built-in counter, in our (kind of new-ish) tiny Laundry. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee... ~~~~~~ Yes, I do get excited over little things, don't I? ,-)

Yesterday/Mon. was my Teeth Cleaning and Dental Check-Up. All is fine! Hooray and Merry Christmas, to me!!! Today/Tues. is my hair trim. And Wed. is my yearly *Girl-y-Bits" Checkup. ,-) Then I'll be done with appointments for 2011. ~~~~~~ Still have to find a small calendar for 2012. Our down-town Borders, where I used to get it, closed this year. Went to other book store and they did not have any selection of small ones. Neither did our down-town Hallmark Store. Today, after having my hair trimmed, I'll have to check out those Seasonal Calendar Sales, at the Mall. If all else fails, I can send away for one, of course.

My Christmas quote for today (below), is from one of my most favorite Holiday DVD's... "A Child's Christmas In Wales." Do you watch this? Oh it is a classic! A beauty! Transporting one back to a time in the past. Just delightful. I love it!!!

Sounds like you are going to be all "spiffed-up" for Christmas! I have an idea, when you get your hair trimmed, have them put some red stripes on one little curl for the Christmas season! How cute would that be!
I think I would love looking out your patio door each morning to see what the day was going to be like!
We're on the countdown now til Christmas. Glad Kate's exams are over. My daughter just finished hers, too, and will be home in a couple of days. My oldest son got home last night late, and my Kiwi Kids will be joining two different NZ families for Christmasing in Wellington! Get tomorrow's exam done and have a wonderful day, Auntie!
I love your oak tree. Can't believe the holidays are almost here. Well, at least I have the tree up.

The Goatmother grew up in Oklahoma. She misses Oak trees. (Sigh) Glad your check ups are over with for the year and that everyone is home for the holidays. Hope Santa Goat brings you something nice! Happy Yule, Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Kwaanza and all the others!

I take that your cold is gone and you are feeling well.. just in time for family and Christmas fun to begin.

The Borders down here by me have closed too but in its place Books a Million has opened. I like this store better because they have a better bargain books section!
Glad that all your family is "home". Now you can REALLY celebrate. Glad you are feeling better Auntie ! (o:
I ordered Susan Branch Wall calendars for my daughter and myself and they are the most adorable things you've ever seen. They are large...you mentioned you want a small one...I think she has those, too.
Have a wonderful Christmas, dear heart.

A Christmas movie I have not seen??? And I want to see it most definitely! You really pack a lot of appointments into the final week of the year. No hair appointments for me, but the dog is being groomed tomorrow. Happy Hanukkah, of course! Why didn't I think of that. I hope that it's not too late to wish a Happy Hanukkah tomorrow.
Stopping by to check on your computer LOL! And to wish you a Happy Hanukkah and a Merry Christmas!
thanks for the reminder to say Happy Hanukkah
