Momma's Tree





Ok, I feel the need to post pics of my Mom's tree, just cuz it'll make her feel good. She likes that sort of thing. And I must admit, I like some of her ornaments, the train and the village (with working miniature street lights!) So, I'm posting that stuff too!




I am in a "Postal" mood today.
So, here are some pics of my office at work...
I decorated the lobby with stuff from home.


























OH.... Christmas Tree, Oh, Christmas Tree


Well, we did manage to get the tree up. I can't decide which photo I like better... the one lit, or unlit... They are okay, I guess. I am a little disappointed with the overall effect of it this year because most of my ornaments and decorations are still in the attic, shoved behind and underneath all the stuff we put up there before the storm last year. Maybe in the spring, before it gets too hot, I'll be able to get up there and sort everything out. (Probably finishing just in time to be ready for storm season next year! LOL)
I want to add some of the close ups I took of some of my favorite ornamets that are on the tree... maybe I'll get to that later today.


The blizzard that blew in at the end of last week didn't give me much to take pictures of, except drying John's boots by the fire one evening. We got plenty of "almost snow", but none of the white stuff. Maybe, before spring, we might get lucky, but somehow I doubt it.

Almost Cold Enough To Snow... but not quite (sniffle...)

It's beginning to feel alot like Christmas...
Almost cold enough to snow...
(sorry, you caught me singing again...)

It's Friday, end of the work week for me...
Nice at the office today, really quiet.
I heard on the news this morning that it was gonna snow in Houston, and that, in all of recorded time in America, it's never snowed before December 20th. This is the first time since readin' an' writin' came to the "new world"... thought that was pretty interesting.

Here, in Louisiana, no such luck, just plenty of freezing rain... and slush.

I just wanted to post a little something to remember this day.
Not much else. Happy Winter!
