I don't usually carry a bear with me on an everyday basis, but I'm always wearing a peice of bear jewelry!

I purposly go on vacation without a bear so that I have the excuse to buy a bears whenever I go away.........So far the toughest place to find a bear......Italy.  I did it though!  I got an adorable Gondalier (?????) bear in Venice handmade by a woman in a smally doll shop!  He;'s my favorite bear from a vacation!

Hey, has anyone gotten any early Christmas presents?  OR how about presents you know you're getting, but you're not supposed to know you're getting them?

my girlfriend gave me the movie o' brother where are thou.  It has george clooney and some really cool gospel songs.  Moreover its sort of a modern spin on homer's illiad and oddisy.  She also got me a wind chime, it's frankly a little hidious... but I love her and appreciate the thought.



sort of a gift for myself I was hoping to get a viechle, my church I think was going to help a bit.  I have been without a car for a couple of years due to tough situations... sadly, unless God sees fit for a miracle I don't think it will happen for a while, as unexpected wrenches keep getting thrown in the works.

Merry Christmas, Lisa!!!!   :bday:
Welcome to the party!

Articicle,
I do very few minis......usually just to prove to myself that I can do it.  They're so fiddly though and like to jump across the room without notice.

Dee,
There is no shame in being daddy's little girl. 

Amelia,
Fingers crossed and prayers on wings for a happy outcome!

Andrea,
Presents I'm not supposed to know about?  Nope.  I don't like knowing what my presents will be.

Articicle,  I love that movie.  Do you like Alison Krauss and Union Station?  They did the song that George Clooney lip syncs to.   AKUS is one of my faves.

Hi Louise! Hi Lisa!

Y'all got chatty while I was fishing in the pantry for something yummy. Didn't find much! Hubby is away so I didn't bother to food shop. I might loose a few pounds while he is gone!

firstly ***NO***  I haven't been snooping... well, at least not a lot.  actually I got my gifts early.

second, "man of constant sorrow" is just incredible.    now that I know Alison Krauss and Union Station did it thanks to you I will have to look them up and see if I like their other stuff. 

for music, I sort of drift in the obscure... I like classical but not piano, swing, the B-52's, mettalica, and of course the soggy bottom boys. I like the hard heavy rock of metallica but what I am most impressed with about them is that they explore... like they did a song and actually put in classical orcastra in it.  The B-52's I appreciate becuase their music is light and fun, and their sound isn't like anyone else.


What music are people into?

Well,  like I said, I love AKUS.  They are blue grass but now real "mountain" blue grass.  Other than that type of bluegrass, I like lots of different types of music.  Classical, jazz, country, not hard rock type music though.
