That is still very sweet and more than most do.

Love the mummy and me sets! Make the most of it. My teenage DDs would now have a fit if I got them such sets!!
Gorgeous tree! I think my new puppy will just eat it so our tree will go up at the last minute once the Christmas holidays start. Otherwise my DH will be on his work Zoom calls with the puppy destroying the tree in the background!She’s doing well. Still super itchy, she’s one month in on a new allergy medication so we'll see. Surgery has healed and her fur is grow back. Thank you for asking! ❤
Thanks!
I needed it too!
(see photo below)
Well - of course!! ❤
She's very dark... I'll see if I can take a better photo later!

BOTH!!
Over here a clear bin bag would replace the ziploc bag... it´s such a "statement" to receive something nice balled up in a binbag... When I bought my Tom Ford Rive Gauche YSL bag - from a household clearance pleace- it arrived in a very dirty and partly torn box and was wrapped in a dusty black bin liner. I could have cried, because it made the prescious bag feel like a piece of trash. Thesmall effort of wrapping nicely always is called for and makes the smallest most random purchase so much more valuable.
Gorgeous bag and scarf!! Where did you take it?
It is fabulous! I love it but I carry large bags for work do that what I’d use it for.
It's gorgeous! And quite a bit larger than I had thought. Sounds as though it's going to be very useful. Have fun playing around with it.
Those are such great stats, @Cookiefiend . So glad that darned SLG finally sold.
I've never listened to A Christmas Carol, but The Hubster and I watch the old Alastair Sim version every year. I need a box of tissues next to me. And I love, love, LOVE the scene with the little boy who yells up to Scrooge "WOT - you mean the one as big as me?" (That's one of the places where I start to sniffle!).
I was reading an article (The Washington Post, I think) saying that many people are decorating very early for Christmas this year. In our neghborhood, the outdoor Christmas lights went up a couple of weeks ago! Usually, folks don't get around to it until waaaaay after Thanksgiving, but I guess everyone felt the need for sparkles. It's quite lovely. No tree-lighting ceremony in our little downtown village this year, of course, which is sad, but I've heard that there will be a decorated tree (perhaps elves will come in the middle of the night and do it???).
G-d bless us, every one!

At the beginning of the year, I promised myself I'd use your "30 day Delayed Gratfication List" system for all purchases. Especially bags, scarves, and clothing. And then came the pandemic. I've been pretty good, haven't purchased all that much, but I sure haven't waited for 30 days before hitting the "buy" button!
Wow! That's fantastic!!!
Great photo! I love the way your presents are all wrapped in plaids. Makes the corner of your beautiful living room look so festive.
And Coco… of course! Hi, Coco! So good to see you!!
hahaha!
I feel like these days too, how nice it is to see that someone made an effort to give (I mean I know you paid for it but YKWIM) you a little pleasure.
I would have been upset too to have received something just tossed into a trash bag... and I know I'd ding them a bit in my feedback.
We watch that version too - I think it's the best one.... though I also like the musical one (so funny to hear everyone sing 'Thank You Very Much, That's the Nicest Thing that Anyone's Done For Me' when Scrooge is dead). Good to know I'm not the only one that gets a bit leaky about the eyes during this movie!Those are such great stats, @Cookiefiend . So glad that darned SLG finally sold.

In our capital, they string lights on the monument on the circle and light it the Friday after Thanksgiving. This year, there was no ceremony on the circle, but they still did light it.
We will get through this!
Thank you! They're not all in plaids, but that's my nod to Scotland!Great photo! I love the way your presents are all wrapped in plaids. Makes the corner of your beautiful living room look so festive.
And Coco… of course! Hi, Coco! So good to see you!!
And sweet Coco (who is currently asleep under my desk) sends you cheerful fuzzy smooches!

The colours are perfect, the design really nice. The leather - not sure.
Sleeping on it till Saturday.
Many of these are favorites for me, as well. Donna Tartt's "The Goldfinch" is one I really ought to reread pretty soon. But a few are new to me. I'm not familiar with "Lord of the Barn Yard." Off to the library!For @cowgirlsboots (and anyone else interested) - my favorites shelves.

These are books I’ve read many times and books that have made me think “I love this book”. It’s missing “Dandelion Wine”by Ray Bradbury, but that’s only because it’s on another shelf with my other RB books. It’s been a over a year since I read a book I loved - that was “News of the World”.
