Odds and Evergreens.
I suppose it's time to say a few things about Christmas...Invisi-Gal loves Christmas waaay too much and most likely for all the wrong reasons.
1) It's always been a "given" that the amount of decorations adorning your yard are in direct correlation to your economic status...the less you make, the more you decorate...and now with the advent of inflatables , it's even more expensive to adorn your yard...so none ... none of this makes sense.
2) Have you noticed that the ubiquitous white holiday lights have been replaced by white hot blue lights with shooting stars? Is China deciding what color Christmas will be?
3) I saw an ol' timey retro lighted Santa on the roof of an ol' timey house and wondered who scampered up the ladder for their grandparents to do that, must be good kids.
4) Now that most of the Greatest Generation has passed, who will give out fruitcake?
5) How can I dislike Nicholas Cage yet, absolutely love The Family Man...
6) I refuse to use the words "war on Christmas"...because I refuse to acknowledge those who would disallow my joy. I shall re-word it "Victory of Christmas"... I live in victory everyday and it all began with Christmas!
7) It's okay to say "Baby Jesus" repeatedly during Christmas and not sound like Ricky Bobby.
8) Have wrapping paper sales diminished because more people give gift cards?
9) Apparently myrrh (as in 3 Kings gift list) can lower LDL levels of cholesterol ...
10) By the way, as a child , I always thought the lyrics to "We Three Kings" were: "We three kings of Orient are, tried to light a rubber cigar"...and I have NO idea where that came from.
chew on that for awhile dear reader....
