when all of a sudden...


a great light did appear



a well known form of travel was near



it's lights 
were bright and twinkly


and a sight quite old 
and wrinkly




did rush past me
 in a flash


he had a beard
 a red hat
 and a bag full of stash

he had his list too
and he was checking it twice 
(and the fact that he does this  every year
 is always so nice)



he ho ho'd 
and he smiled
 and the kids 
well some 
went wild
others whimpered behind their mums
the smallest of all sucked their thumbs


then 
in a flash
(or lack thereof)
in one great zoom


he was gone
he went poof
Santa left the room

**************************
and all we have
 is this proof.....

the annual running of the jolly old man in a red suit

(PS the reindeer don't do the list checking run
they stay home in the warmth of the stables)

just clouds...





















went out to get the mail and a breath of fresh air
and looked up for a second
...
went back to get
"blanca"
and shoot the  heavens...
nothing like a sky full of 
blue and white
.....

1010

 
on days such as these
when men show just how evil and wicked they can be
 innocent souls are taken
 
anywhere in the world
 
and children are left without mothers
 mothers without children
we have to keep our eyes on the light
at the end of a very, very dark tunnel
 
and now to make things  worse and even more scary
a certain someone decides to make a bid for
"most powerful position on the planet"
 
we think its bad now
just wait....
may the powers that be
 above those on this earth
intervene
 and
stop the madness that will come
should that event happen
which is very likely
 coz those are the ones who steer todays events
 
 (my blog my opinion)

so while I've been gone
and no I still haven't picked up a hook
I've had to find other things to do
and one of them has been
colouring
with crayons
A
 
 found a site with lots of free downloads
...
so I did
......
I took the photo a few days ago of what I had done up 'til then
little Russian dolls made of paper
(scroll down  the page a little to find them_
I decided to print the uncoloured ones
(she has them already coloured, which is what Dutzie had chosen)
 
if you've been around here for any  length of time
you know I have "one of everything"
to satisfy my never ending need to
"do stuff"
at the drop of a hat
so crayons were dusted off
sharpened and
used
so
yesterday
which turned out to be such a beautiful one weather wise
and errand day
when we stopped in Staples to get ink for the printer
(coz I OBVIOUSLY used all we had!!!!!!)
I got some new crayons
so the world isn't such a dark and scary place
we can colour a rainbow to shelter us from
those who would take all the colours out
 

 
 
have a wonderful rest of the day
and take time to notice the colours
all of them

it's December again...













so I changed the header photo
coz that's about all I have these days
guess the blog is on another hiatus
but I'll see you around in the other places
Facebook
instagram
pinterest

the photos are from three years ago
which was the last time I decorated
no one around here believes in Christmas  anymore
so why bother

winter solstice is the main topic at this time of the year
and I'm not sure what the decorations for that are
bright shiny stars and twigs???
:) :) :) :) :)

anyhoos,
lots of folks still coming in to get the patterns up at the top of the page
500 and more some days
so I guess I'll leave this open for them
see you around
in that big
WWW
:)
