Blue Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Awww... I'm listening to BBC Radio 1 right now - an interview over the telephone with Leon Jackson, who has this year's Christmas #1... I had not even heard from him until 10 min ago but now I think I love him... He has such a lovely accent... Hi Oldlings, it's quiet here... I suppose everyone is having a Real Life?

I had not even heard from him until 10 min ago but now I think I love him... He has such a lovely accent... Hi Oldlings, it's quiet here... I suppose everyone is having a Real Life? Hi Blue (and others). Yes I am having a Real Life: three daughters watching (stupid (sorry for those who do like it)) Belgian tv-series Spoed (Emergency) about a hospital. The two youngest constantly fighting while I try to read my book:thumbdown: Anyway: it's finished now so I have to bring them to bed one by one. Hubby and I do it together actually. One brushes teeth of a girl other reads her a bedtime story. So have I to go in a few minutes. By the way: today is my 12,5 years marriage-anniversary!

dcdeb Posted December 23, 2007 Author Share Posted December 23, 2007 Happy Day Before the Day Before Christmas, Oldlings! Just a quick fly-by... Did I mention the other day that I had had a long talk with tootch on the phone? I can't remember, but I meant to... Anyhow, she sends her love and hopes to rejoin us after the holiday hubbub! My oven has decided to die -- I baked a simply dreadful batch of M&M cookies yesterday -- they are usually some of the best I make, but they just wouldn't bake properly. My son says they taste fine, but they look awful Well, guess I need to get a new oven as my Christmas present this year... to go with the new fridge we had to get a few weeks ago. *sigh* Anyhow... Hmm no, don't think so... I just read that these pics were taken last summer when he was in the US. I wonder if that means this past summer? June 2007? The photographer has a sample of the magazine that the photos appeared in -- but I can't read it, to tell when it was published. The magazine's website isn't helpful at all, either. In any case, it can't be Sivan's necklace thingy. Hi Oldlings, it's quiet here... I suppose everyone is having a Real Life? Well, I already told you how real it is... too real for me! I have a ton of gifts to wrap and will get to it now while hubby and son are out getting a haircut... Did just want to stop in again and say hello to whoever was here... HELLO! I'll be back in a bit! dcdeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlottechristy Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Hi Everyone! Yes, Real Life is sure hectic right now. I was about done with all my Christmas stuff until my Mom called last night and said, "So, what did you get me for Christmas?" I said, "Mom, I can't tell you that!" She said, "Well, I sure hope it is what I wanted." Okay, now I was dumbfounded because I wasn't sure what my Mother wanted. Then she said, "It's one of your art pieces that you make from our trips....right?" OMG.....I was like, "Mom, you know I'm not going to tell you." Well, I didn't even think of it this year! So, last night, I started making it and stayed up all night. It's more difficult since I can't find one of my photoshop software discs since my computer crashed after Glasgow. But, I think it turned out lovely..not my best but I have what she now wanted. Oh, the things we do for our parents. Okay, I just got off the phone with her and she said, "Where are you? I thought you were coming over today?" I said, "Oh, Mom...I'll be over later...just getting some relaxing in." LMAO!!!! I don't want her to know I stayed up all night making her pressie. LOL I hope y'all have a Very Merry Christmas! I'm so Thankful that I got to meet y'all this year and I can't wait to see y'all again next year. I'm sure that we will have to meet up again. Robi, your Nativity Scene made me tear up! It's so gorgeous! I love it. Well, I probably won't be on much since I'm heading over my Mum's tonight. Take care and I love y'all very much.

Blue Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Wow Robi! That's impressive! I watched the video, it's quite huge, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcdeb Posted December 23, 2007 Author Share Posted December 23, 2007 Wow, Robi! That's so impressive. Brian said to tell you that watching the video made him choke up -- you did an amazing job, and it is certainly something to help us contemplate the meaning of the season. Thank you! Charlotte, at least you know what your mother wants... mine is impossible. She says she wants nothing, and yet... if I were to give her nothing there would be hell to pay... Oh well. Carri, can't believe you have to work tomorrow! Even my husband has the day off -- and we'll do very last-minute shopping. As it turns out, it will be just the three of us this holiday -- my aunt from Florida decided to visit my parents several days early and they don't want to leave her, so they won't come here. My husband's family is coming next weekend. And so... we're on our own. I think it's the first time ever. In a way, it will be sad, but in another, I think we'll enjoy it. I know I've said it already, but it bears repeating. I'm so happy to have found this forum and all of you... it's been an amazing year, and I look forward with much anticipation to spending 2008 with you, too! Not sure how much I'll be online now until after Christmas Day, so if I don't get back, I'll just say, once more, MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all! dcdeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candboys Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I just wanted to pop in and wish everyone a Merry Christmas! I probably won't be on until after the new year. My laptop has been acting up and we are going to drive to Chicago tomorrow to visit my brother. I guess this will be like a test drive for the show there in Feb. Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarahlou1973 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Just popped on quickly as for some reason I was awake early this morning - not like me at all. I think this is the quiet before the storm before all the packing and visits start and then the trip to my mum's. I just want to wish everyone a Happy Christmas or Season's Greetings. I hope you all have a lovely time and thank you all so much for making 2007 a year to remember. 2008 has a lot to live up to:biggrin2: . Robi, your nativity scene is stunning - well done to you both. Well, that's me signing off until after Christmas. Lots of love and best wishes to you all. Sarah xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
