I saw immediately I grabbed the wrong one, but it wouldn't let me get it fixed!  And we have 15 damn minutes!   Not very Christmasy at all, those 15 minutes!


You are the most selfless person I know Flakers, always thinking of a kindness for others.  You are my peep. 

 

But girl! You hate Peeps!!! 

Oh wait... they have chocolate ones?!

....well, you girls and your fallopian tubes need to hug......

Our fallopian tubes will not be going anywhere near each other. We just don't swing that way. Strictly Non-Lebanese.

And you are definitely NOT under appreciated.  You've always been a champion for others.  

Get over here so I can give you a noogie.

Do it! Do it, do it, do it, do it!!!
I want to see you Christmas the absolute hell out of 2020.

Eff you, Twenty Twenty... you can't take The Christmas out of Dana Jean, nah-uh, get stuffed.

I might today. I’m trying so hard to whittle my tbr pile down.  I don’t have anyone to pass the books onto. I refuse to donate them to places like goodwill after i watched the illiterate slob walk a box of books i took in and dump in a box labeled garbage— i’m pretty sure i had a stroke when that happened. 

And my library isn’t taking donations at this time. And unfortunately, i know no readers i could gift them to close by. Which is so sad. 

Any suggestions?

How about a Senior Center,  Assisted Living Facility, Nursing Home.  Local community college, HS- if age appropriate??

I’ll check and see if any of these are accepting donations. That would be great, some are very nice books with Brodart covers .

thank you!

Is this too morbid?? I'm trying to appeal to your creative side... as well as give you something to do.... later. 😳🙄😄
Has anyone ever made a casket out of their favourite books? (or movies)
I bet this could be done. 

Hedda Gabler

I bet it has been done, but i have no room
 for a book casket. 🤣

🤣 Place shelves in it, stand it upright until it's needed 😳 and use it as a temporary (preferably long-term) bookshelf. 😁

That would be cool looking, but I have no room in my house for a casket horizontal or vertical, bwhahahha!

Here you go, flakers.

I watched Mr. Magoo.  It own it, but I found it on the Peacock channel, so now I can just click on that anytime I want!  I'll be watching it many times between now and xmas.

Wow - just found a gorgeous picture

We've been watching Downton Abbey - just wondering when we will be hitting the Christmas special

We watched Operation Christmas Drop on Netflix last night -- a cute story set on Guam, based on a real-life operation.

Gorgeous christmas scene.  I wish I had a fireplace.

Going to go lose myself in the christmas aisle at my one stop shopping place.  

I'll get my groceries and then there will be time enough at last to wander the xmas highways and byways.  The fog will sort of roll in and I'll be alone, until some masked madman wheels into view and ruins it all by standing 5 inches away from me to stare at the same wall of holiday cheer.  Which will then make me bah humbug the holy hell out of them.  

Just kidding.  I'll slowly roll away to live and fight for my Christmas aisle another day.
