Stopping by early, soon it will be Christmas Day, Shiny gifts, inviting bows, ‘neath the tree do lay, Hot, mulled apple cider in red glass, deer mugs. Magnificent family with endless,warm, love hugs! Roast beef, just glowing with luscious juice. Sad absence of cousins, Maggie and Bruce! The peace and love that fills the pine scented room. Wish all days, were like this, the absence of gloom! Merry Christmas poets and love to one and all! This is your early eight week, wake up call! 10/25/2024 Love and hugs to all, in those busy, fun weeks ahead. ~ PANGIE~

Hey, Hey, Ole! Quick question: How many shopping days left until the big guy in the red sit burns his tuchas sliding down those 'slim, tailored chimneys' they make nowadays?! Keep smiling ~ S. Anta

Oy! I don’t get specific. People have calendars I know and can figure it out themselves.. Oh, I’m glad to hear that Santa has slimmed down. Although I used to like sitting on his nice cushy thighs. ))) Pangie
