'Tis the season - holiday wishes...

While I haven't been around much in 2017, I'm planning on changing that in 2018 (if the health behaves). I'm looking forward to getting back to writing, editing, and getting a few stories out there.  

All the best for the holiday season and may 2018 be a marvellous year for everyone.

Tuesday Tunes: White Christmas

I dream of a White Christmas since my Christmases are in Summer here in the land of Oz.

Here is Michael Buble and Kelly Rowland singing White Christmas. 'Tis after all the season...

Ho, ho, ho....

I wanted to take a moment to thank you all for reading and commenting on my blog. Your support has been wonderful.

Of course it goes without saying that I wish everyone

a truly Happy and Safe holiday season

- whether you celebrate Christmas or not.

I do celebrate, so this post has a Christmas slant, and you know this blog is all about me! :))

Too cute for words!

And of course, we have to have a laugh! The indignity of being dressed up.

Happy Holidays to you all

I hope you all have a day of merriment with loved ones 

(whether you celebrate Christmas or not). 

I have always loved the nativity scene - one of my favourite decorations we had under the Christmas tree was a plastic nativity scene and I would spend ages just looking at it. So I wanted to put a picture that depicted the true meaning of Christmas.

Some Greek  Christmas facts:

The common abbreviation for Christmas to Xmas is derived from the Greek alphabet. X is letter Chi, which is the first letter of Christ's name in the Greek alphabet. 

The Greek name for Christmas is Christougena - literally Christ's birth. When Greeks say Merry Christmas, they say Kala Christougena

Yia!

All I want for Christmas...

Ok, so it is a loooong way to Christmas. Thank goodness. Just trying to get over the Easter celebrations. But the song '"All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth" popped into my head. Why?

Well my computer, that's why. It's been a with me for 7 years and as you know technology has come a long, long way in 7 years. I'm doing what I can with it, the most important being word processing - I can write my stories. BUT internet is slow (dialup) and the poor thing is struggling. It stops and crashes when I am on the internet for too long or try to do more than one thing at a time (yes, I'm impatient) and all my family can hear is me cussing from the study. F'en thing.

So all I want for Christmas is a new computer.... I think I'm going for a Mac this time around. But can I wait for Christmas? I'm getting more and more pissed off...huhumm...annoyed with this computer every day.

So fairy godmuse, if you're listening, can I have a brand new sparkling Mac please? Pretty please?
