Glad Tidings And Good Cheer


So much for being ready for Christmas and yet, it will all get done.  I have started the fruit platter which will have strawberries, pineapple and cream cheese dip in the middle.  

Merry Christmas to all my friends out there!  I'll be thinking of you.

Knock Knock


Someone is there.  She is shameless.  A beggar.  I like to leave the doors propped open on nice days and guess who wants in?  Last week I was sitting in my chair when something jumped up on my foot resting on the footstool.  I was shocked and jumped.  She hurried back out the door.

I feed the squirrels nuts and this one has learned a few tricks.  She can climb up the screen door and rock in and out and cause quite a racket when she wants some nuts.  From the time I raise the blinds in the morning, they watch from the trees and come running.  Mother Nature has to comply.  I do enjoy the animals.
