What ever happened to those other two days?

My coloring project showing The Twelve Days Of Christmas got sidetracked by other Christmas activities and the major job of mucking through the snow to pack the motorhome for our trip to Florida. To the many people who were following my work through the first ten days and were eagerly awaiting days 11 and 12, I offer my sincere apology. I hope that your holiday was not dampened too greatly by my shortcomings. I'll try again next year. LOL

Here is a cartoon that was shared with me by Bonnie Cooper, who works for Gulfstream Coach, the company that made our motorhome. I thought that my lovely daughter, in particular, might enjoy it.

Cookies!!

Our task of getting all the necessary items loaded into the motorhome continues. But we took time out to make some Christmas cookies. Sue made snickerdoodles and I made the red and green sugar cookies. Tomorrow, we may make a few more.


Here is day 10 of the 12 day countdown.

Christmas Past

Here is a link to some old-time Christmas catalogs that may bring back memories for some of us and be a history lesson for the younger folk. Just click on the link that is in the Hot Links section at the top of the right-hand column of this blog. Note: The pages may be bigger than will fit on the screen, so use the up-down and left-right arrows to move to the part of the page that you want to look at.

And here are the next two in the 12 days of Christmas coloring project. I missed yesterday because we went to v
isit my Mom. I've got my priorities straight!

One more day closer to Christmas

We are working at the process of packing the motorhome for the trip south. I wish that the weather would get a little milder, but the forecast doesn't sound too promising. This little swan seems to be having fun in the water at some warmer location. I am jealous.

Catchin' Up

I was away from the computer a lot yesterday, so I didn't post the 5th day of Christmas picture. So today, I'll include both day 5 and day 6 (plus a song by Joe Diffie).

Just a little more snow.

Yes, we got more snow today, but compared to the past couple of days, this was much more manageable. I would guess that the cars had 3 inches of snow on them when I cleaned them off today. Tomorrow and Friday are not supposed to be snowy at all, and that is good news. Maybe with some sun, we can reduce the size of the snow mounds. In a little more than a week, we have to get the motorhome out of the driveway. I'd just as soon not have to shovel it out.

And in conclusion,
