Ransom Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 ^ I've got most of mine done.

Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 ^ - My place is typically decorated with Christmas flair around the week of Thanksgiving. Sometimes before, sometimes after. Presents not included (they're in CO with immediate family). < - My brain is already on autopilot and ready for the holidays (Two weeks off! With a little work in the mornings when I'm in town) I can't be on holiday yet though...gotta get some important work done by Friday. v - If you do decorate, do you take it all down a few days after Christmas, or do you keep it up for a few weeks, month, all friggin year, etc. (If you don't decorate, my question would be what do you do in lieu of decorating?) Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hester Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 < We did a nautical tree this year. Our skull tree topper is wearing a captain's hat. Hey, Jill -- your tree topper sounds fabulous! Post a pic if possible, please. ^We usually wait until the last weekend before Xmas to put up the tree (real one). Then, being a traditionalist, I insist on leaving the tree and other decorations up until after Twelfth Night (January 6th). But, even if I get lazy, all Xmas decoration MUST be taken down and put away by Candlemass (Feb. 2nd, Groundhog Day) at the very latest. [According to folk tradition, it's quite bad luck to leave them up any longer than that.] But, I think my boxes of decorations need a really drastic culling. I'm not sure where some of this ugly dreck came from! < Facebook just announced that 2 of my mutual friends have "ended their relationship". Ouch! That's gonna be awkward! Meanwhile, I've been using Facebook & MySpace to discreetly 'stalk' a musician acquaintance that I had a crush on 25 years ago. Too shy to send him an actual 'friend request' (doubt he'd remember me anyway), but it's nice to see that he's still in the music biz and doing well.

Hester Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 ^ Apparently, I'm the only one here who gets in sticky situations on Facebook. My most recent escapade was kinda fun. I sent a 'friend request' to someone with the right name and general geographic location of a person I was looking for. Turned out it was the wrong person, with the same not uncommon name. But he complimented me by saying I looked "awfully young" to be a friend of his. Well, hey, he's a friend of mine NOW! < Spending New Year's at home, with DVDs and champagne cocktails V What are you doing New Year's Eve? (That's tonight, folks!)

The first year we were in our home...I did them all by hand...NEVER AGAIN. Then get the garden beds ready for the season. Oh, and move the wood pile. < Funny you mentioned 'editing'.

RustyNell Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) ^ I used to work in an Emergency Room and had a doctor once make me hang up on a kid who I suspected was making a suicide attempt, the kid was asking about certain meds and what could happen if you took too much... The doctor, he was worried about insurance. Told me to tell him to call an ambulance and hang up. don't know if it was interesting as much as disturbing! < even after 20 plus years I still get really nervous when I sing in front of people.

Ransom Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 ^ Yeah, wealthy enough that my husband could quit driving a truck and retire early. He's been doing it for 30+ years, and is pretty tired of dealing with crazy drivers who don't realize you can't stop a tractor/trailer on a dime. < Besides, since I'm ten years older than him, if he has to wait until he's 65 to retire, I'll be 75!!!!!

Hester Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 ^Right now, it's naturally "Frosted Chestnut", in natural pirate curls, past my shoulders. When the "frost" gets too heavy, I'm gonna get it cut in a Flapper Bob and go Platinum Blonde. [Hopefully not for another decade or so yet, though.] <Used to dye it a lot in my youth.
