I thought I had bought cards after Christmas last year but could not find them so bought more. Thankfully I only opened and used one of the boxes...and of course then found the cards I had already purchased. Luckily I had saved the receipt so was able to return the two unopened boxes. Argh! <br />Rugs and Pugshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17084387971128823025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5425157822682288116.post-50724763256670751162021-11-30T13:16:34.275-05:002021-11-30T13:16:34.275-05:00Happy Belated Thanksgiving!

I have struggled with walking since my neck issue. After my surgery it's a bit better but I'm still not up to where I used to be. The doctor said it could take 1-2yrs before I feel more normal...sheesh! I hope not so I just keep plugging along and going farther each time. Anyway, I love your little village and I have a few decorations that speak to me too and just usher in the holiday. It's great your hubby likes to decorate! Mine likes to help but probably wouldn't do it on his own. yayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12047536332780197024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5425157822682288116.post-80615087584002800082021-11-29T21:46:57.166-05:002021-11-29T21:46:57.166-05:00I love to walk and just be, it really clears the m...I love to walk and just be, it really clears the mind. Getting cold here and I have to drive to walk, so not as much now. My relaxing is listening to music and working in my sewing room. I stay away from crowds myself, not worth it. Your village pieces are fun, I Love collecting things from thrifts, always find the best pieces. Another place I do miss going to, but most thrifts and antique stores here are tight so hard to avoid people. <br /><br />DebbieWoolenSailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08621977477193550261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5425157822682288116.post-90331600840851987762021-11-29T17:14:04.486-05:002021-11-29T17:14:04.486-05:00I just thought about having to get my Christmas ca...I just thought about having to get my Christmas cards out. I send them too. I dont care how many times you share your Christmas village because it looks so sweet and festive. LOL on your husband and Christmas Vacation.

We were with family in RI and enjoyed chicken, ribs and apple pie and good company. Ours was a small group of 6 and I can understand your reluctance to be in a large group, Cathy. The village looks nice and this was my first time seeing it. We've decided to forgot setting up the large village this year and will just put up the artificial tree we bought last year after management decreed no more live trees within the apts (bah humbug). We only had a few snow flurries late Sat night, but nothing stayed on the ground. I will also be starting my Christmas cards this week because I also enjoy sending (and receiving) them. Glad others do as well. If you would like to exchange holiday cards, you can contact me at my blog email and we can exchange addresses.Beatrice P.

I have gotten boxes of $18/box cards for $2. But the postage is just so high! I just love your Christmas village. It is absolutely adorable and so interesting. I love Putz houses and all the little figurines! Always post it, please!

I love quirky facts and did not know where the tradition came from (and am not sure why I never thought to look into it before...so am glad you did and shared!) I will forever more think of them as "merrythoughts." Absolutely love that! I know I saw your village last year, but love seeing it...so don't ever stop posting it. It conjures all those wonderful childhood thoughts of Christmas as it should be. And I am glad "Clark" convinced you to put your window candles out...it IS Christmas after all. Wish I had a Clark LOL. ~Robin~TheCrankyCrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16314851714923955216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5425157822682288116.post-78734428352877315362021-11-28T20:53:02.061-05:002021-11-28T20:53:02.061-05:00Like you I spent thanksgiving home since my song a...Like you I spent thanksgiving home since my song and DIL had a house full and she wasn't feeling well a few days prior. Cute with the wishbone pull; I used to love that as a kid at grandma's house.

Now I don't even bother saving the wishbone. Your husband is a satisfied man and has all he wants. That's how we should all be.<br /><br />You are ahead of me on Christmas decorating. I usually only start about mid-December. I haven't decided on how much I will decorate for Christmas this year. For two Christmases in a row, family dinners had to be cancelled because of the huge snowstorm and treacherous driving conditions. As long as nobody is sick, I'll be very happy. <br /><br />Getting started early on the Christmas cards is a good idea as the mail si getting slower and slower every year. <br /><br />Hugs, JuliaJuliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.com
