I received a card almost just like that!<BR/><BR/>We've got the decorations down but the poor old tree is sitting on the front verandah waiting for Fixit to hack it into small pieces for the green-waste recycling. So we still have a nice Christmassy smell as we walk through the front door.Stomper Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038937073264645029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-1168295909893588942007-01-08T22:38:00.000+00:002007-01-08T22:38:00.000+00:00Unless you are terribly immature and giggly, you a...Unless you are terribly immature and giggly, you are not missing anything by not playing my video link. :) <BR/><BR/>As for other people's chores being more interesting, my mother would agree with you. Her house is a disaster zone but my two sisters who live nearby pay her to clean their homes. Ironically, their homes look great! Myabe the paycheck adds interest, too?

Isabelle, I left a post here with a question, and now it seems to have vanished, so I'm going to ask again: what is inside Edinburgh Castle? Every year when we watch the Tattoo, Ken and I wonder out loud what is in there?Gina E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07532527261977368083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-1168170183732333542007-01-07T11:43:00.000+00:002007-01-07T11:43:00.000+00:00Ack, our tree came down last week, even before New...Ack, our tree came down last week, even before New Years, got sick of it taking up space when there were no presents under it!<BR/><BR/>Oh Isabelle, I am very disappointed in you! I thought we had things in common, but now you go and say that you wouldn't let a lottery win change your life!<BR/><BR/>Bugger that, I would let it change mine! I'd be off visiting all the places in the world I yearn to see, I would buy houses and cars and boats, I would pay everyone to stay away at Christmas, or maybe instead pay someone to put on Christmas for me. <BR/><BR/>I would just become a rich bitch, that's what I would do.<BR/><BR/>But I would still blog...I'd miss you all too much!Aunty Evilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18433383999833031264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-1168158755199436852007-01-07T08:32:00.000+00:002007-01-07T08:32:00.000+00:00Our tree came down yesterday too, but the cards ar...Our tree came down yesterday too, but the cards are still strung up.

It's just that I've grown attached to it and will miss the soft glow of the twinkly lights.....and it's so much less fun taking it down and vacuuming up all those pesky needles....but we wouldn't want the Easter Bunny to get his feelings hurt by finding a Christmas tree still loitering about when he shows up....mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03797484583400519909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-1168123283191556312007-01-06T22:41:00.000+00:002007-01-06T22:41:00.000+00:00Hi Isabelle, found my way to you from Lainey.

As a wee Scottie living in Oz for the last 25 years I love reading about places I remember viz Milngavie, and <BR/>Edinburgh where I went to college and of course I just love that dry droll sense of humour which only ever seems to surface in Scotland. Have been lurking for a few weeks and hope everything settles down for you soon.Zannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04374441911002511628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-1168118813525341162007-01-06T21:26:00.000+00:002007-01-06T21:26:00.000+00:00I dont really find chores interesting- mine or oth...I dont really find chores interesting- mine or others! haha!<BR/>I used to help my mother with things but she had a more organised mind than I do.<BR/>Mine is a bit like a flea, & hops about! <BR/>Happy 2007 Isabelle.meggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00061112627819270427noreply@blogger.com
