I’m not a hard person to shop for at Christmas- I don’t care about stuff, I just like opening the packages and being surprised.
Which means that I’m really hard to shop for because people think that I won’t say what I want…and when I do give it up and say what I want those same people think I’m kidding [...]

WHEN IN ROME DON’T DO WHAT THE ROMANS DO UNLESS YOU’RE A ROMAN

Yesterday my family were sitting around the old Christmas Tree, eating the Candy, finishing off the turkey and telling stories with Christmas Music playing in the background- all that was missing was Tiny Tim asking God to Bless us all.
But that old fashioned Christmas feeling was sort of shot to the North Pole on a Yule [...]

Santa asked me, with a straight face:
“I’m sure you’ve been a good girl, what would you like for
Christmas
Anita Marie?”
I said:
“I’d like to go to Roswell for
The 2008 UFO Festival.”
” That would involve you leaving the state for a few week, wouldn’t it?” Santa says too me.
” Indeed” I say to Santa.
” Talk about killing two birds with [...]
On The Twelfth Day

All Sales Are Final
On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Twelve drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree!
For serveral years I believed my family Christmas Gatherings on the whole were trauma and drama [...]

Things Start To Get A Little Too Quiet
On the eleventh day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
My favorite part of Christmas wasn’t the presents or the food or [...]
