Falalala Friday WLS Express

Come on in and have a seat in the Christmas carol car. What's your favorite Christmas song or songs? Do you sing in front of others or just in the shower?
All Aboard!

GOOD MORNING! Its been a long week, but just today and then Monday-Thursday next week and we're off to PA. I can't wait. We had a great Christmas/Dec birthday luncheon yesterday. I had enough snowmen to decorate all 5 tables, just from the stuff in my office. lol. So it looked neat. The birthday people loved the game I had them play- I pinned a name of a Christmas song on their backs where they couldn't see and they had to go around the room and only ask yes or no questions to the rest of us and try to figure out which song they had. Once they knew they had to come to me and sing the song.

Then it was off to Jenny's where I got to have a tea party with Rhiannon, and then we left when Eric came home and met up with Deb. We went to a thrift store where I found 3 sweaters and a long sleeve shirt for $12. That was fun. Esp the part where they didn't have a dressing room so I was trying on a sweater over my shirt and because of static cling, couldn't get it off without pulling my shirt off too-Jenny had to come to my rescue!

Today is another Christmas luncheon for a mayor's committee I'm on in Arlington.
Prayers for all in need but especially Sherry's Angela and her family at this time, and Eric and Gaye for healing.

My favorite Christmas songs- O Holy Night, There's no place like home for the holidays, I want a hippopotumus for Christmas, and Dominick the Donkey. Actually I love almost all Christmas songs.

Have a great day!

Hey Alissa,

Where in PA are you going to be and how long are you going to be there?  Just wondering if you are going to be close enough to have a cup of Java while you are here!

About 45 minutes SW of Philadelphia. You're in Dover -right?

Yup we sure are.  Dover AFB!

Good Morning Alissa and the rest of my TMB Family,

Well it's 26 here in Dover this morning.  Now if we would just get some snow to go with the cold I would not mind the cold so much.  Does not look like that wil happen anytime in the near futer anyway.  Maybe for Christmas.  I have been searching for a WLS support group in the area but have not had any luck  yet.  I really need to find one and meet some other people that have had surgery like me.  My eating habbits have not been all that good these days and it is begining to scare me a little.  I may have to start on Protein drinks only here for a little bit.   Alissa I sing when ever I get the chance.  It is my way of praising God.  Love any and all Christian music.  Dont have the best voice but it doesnt matter I just love doing it.  Favorite Christmas song is Mary Did you Know, and Silent Night (it makes me cry).  I will be thinking of you all as you head to the Christmas party tomorrow night.  Wish I was going to be there but will be in Spirit.  I will look forward to seeing lots of pictures.  Looks like there is lots going.  Prayers this morning, for Jenny and Eric, Viv, Anette, Liz, and all those unspoken.  Have a blessed day.  Love you guys

TGIF!!  I'm so glad it's Friday.  I'm ready for the weekend.  I'm going to try my Ambien tonight to see how I react to it.  I've been afraid to try it when I have to go to work in the morning.  I don't want to wake up drunk!!

Not much to say right now so I'll say adios!  Gotta get into the shower and get to work!  Y'all have a great day!!  Love ya!

Good Morning Train!

WOOOOHOOOO for FRIDAY!  I'm still sitting at home working and waiting to be called to testify.... it's beginning to look like I should have just went in to work this week after all.... but I'm not complaining about working from home!  LOL  Now they're guessing that they'll need me, MAYBE, on Monday afternoon.... it's a good thing I've been really productive from home this week!  LOL

Prayers are going up to all that need them!

As for the Christmas songs, Alissa..... I've never heard one I didn't like, the Hippopotamus song, the Chipmunks Christmas song, We Three Kings, I love them all.... I sang in choir during high school and when the family gets together me and Bubba and Deb always sing at some point or the other.... now, at work I love to sing in the empty halls or bathroom stalls (great acoustics) before any one else gets there.... LOL

Here's one that was on the radio yesterday and is stuck in my head!

Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, an out-of-space convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be oh so good
If you'd check off my Christmas list
Boo doo bee doo
Santa honey, I wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, there's one thing I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, I'm filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your 'X' on the line
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean a phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight

Ya'll have a great day my friends!

My favorite version of this wonderful song was by Eartha Kitt!! Love her purr!!

MEGGIE-me too-heard  it the other day-can't get it out of my head!
