Play S'more
Yay- two Days Off in a row this week! Can't wait to finally go grocery shopping for the first time since the week before Xmas. All basic home supplies are very low.
It'll be a cold n fast dash for errands. I'll need layers n layers to keep warm. I've gotten very spoiled with mild temperatures up until this week's arctic chill settled in. I don't want to pay for heat again, but I long to feel toasty n it's always cool in here. Guess we're lucky it's still above Zero F ...
I mean, I'm wearing 2 layers to bed! Time for a nap before working "My Friday-"
These altered pics came out pretty interesting n more detailed, I think.
Bet "Mallow" plays mellow tunes... This little ornament I got for a gift is just so cute- He'll be on the table awhile;
Well I seem to be having better luck with small, still, Macro pic subjects.
Did you get any interesting new ornaments this year?

When you reach my age no one gives your ornaments anymore. I also have not desire to add to my hoard and have given a bunch away to each of the kids. I did not even get my grandkids ornaments this year...next year for sure! Keep warm, we are finally getting the cold down here this week and while I have gas heat, my electric is climbing having to keep lights on in such a dark house.
Tabor, I put the ornaments around the house, because I have no tree to put them on. I try to get decs of different types for everyone each year. Somewhere packed in a box I have glass-blown bulbs from my grandmother. Some become priceless treasure! Don't feel bad- ALL mine is elec- Don't want to read the bill...
I had not decorated for Christmas, so my sister brought me our Mother's favorite Christmas Angel, a new Christmas stocking and a wonderful pine scented candle from Bath and Body. Then my daughter gave me a handmade Christmas tree made of feathers. Unbelievable!! It all gave me a lovely Christmas corner in my home.
Gran Annie, I'm glad your folks came up with easy n memorable decs for your halls!
I bought a new ornament - a hand blown glass bagpipe. My coworker does beautiful blown glass, so I bought that from her. And then she gave us all a glass snowflake ornament she made
That marshmallow ornament is adorable!!! I would just keep that out all the time. I'm so glad someone gave you that.
Lynn, That sounds like a very nifty n delicate piece. It's amazing the power of small, cute, n pretty things to lift mood so easily. I like Mallow's unique concept.
The only new Christmas ornament I got was the large Owl I showed on my blog. I often end up with a few extra bits for the tree if there's anything left over that I didn't use for decorations on parcels.
I hope you keep warm there, it sounds and looks so cold!
LLcoolJ, That owl was pretty large, but you are a night owl. I've been giving away butterfly ornaments in recent years. Oh yeah, I got some violins too. Yep, I've been freezing my butt off here! Ice n snow today again.
Ahhh, what a CUTE little ornament! Yes, we get a new ornament each year, actually lucked out on Christmas Eve day and got a set of 3 little "socks" for 60% off. Not bad!
I've been layering at bedtime too, but it's not quite as chilly here as where you are.
Hungering for marshmallows now... :)
xooxox
Jannie, I decided Mallow sings "You fill up my BBQ" just like John Denver... I got Dollar tree violins, myself. Yep, sometimes I wear a hat! Hoping the blizzard heat stays on today! I hate a marshmellow Peep in your honor!
