Yeah, you really bowled people over, Cheekychook. (ha)

But you know what this means, right? You're in charge of refreshments for the forum Holiday Party. (haha)

I love being in charge of refreshments. Takes care of my control issues and my obsession with food all at once. ;)

So I'm pulling Christmas decorations outta the attic and I get a visit from the ghost of Christmas Past.

I started as a special ed "life skills" teacher. We started a cottage industry and made these one year and sold them for $20 a pop. The class of 20 cleared $1000 profit so each kid got $50.

Awh, that is awesome!

I just thought I'd share, sice I brought up A Christmas Story earlier, one of our students at school saw the movie a couple of weeks ago and thought it would be a good idea to "triple dog dare" a girl to stick her tongue to the flag poll.

It was in the 20's. Yeah....lol

Here is another thing I love about this time of year: naughty cats who climb Christmas trees and yet are so freaking adorable I can do nothing but grab my camera phone and start snapping pictures while she curls up on the branches and preens.

My snowy cat, Lola -

I do my best to keep my cats out of the Christmas tree...but the temptation is sometimes just a little too much. This is Twerp (and trust me, she earned that namesake!) I haven't caught her IN the tree yet, but this was right before I had to pull her out.

M'hahaha, your cats are so cute.

Last year mine wouldn't go anywhere near the Christmas tree. He went all around the sofas to avoid it. He's terrified of tinsel, and I think he doesn't like Christmas. Must be because he's black. He's a Halloween cat only. ;)

Now he sometimes drinks from the tree's water, but still won't approach it much. It's hilarious.
