I wish you the ability of fresh eyesight to enjoy Christmas lights, the twinkle in a child’s eye, and the glitter of ice from fresh fallen snow. I wish you the warmth of family love, the hug of a small child, or a wet lick in the face from a beloved dog. I wish you the soft purr of a beloved furry cat as he/she cuddles and gently plays the “piano” in your lap. I wish for you the insight to embrace others who also suffer, as we do; therefore I wish you the blessings of empathy toward others. Let us all be especially aware and show gratitude to the young wounded warriors in our midst. I wish for you the gift of laughter, the joy of song, and the hum of life as you embrace this season. I wis...

I try to be honest here at Bah!, and I have to say, it wasn’t our Best Holiday Ever. But that wasn’t Estonia’s fault. When we set off, we were all tired, and we were all carrying different stresses and strains, and we all pretty quickly got into different sleep patterns, so agreeing to do anything, and everyone enjoying it, was tricky. Tallin was having a heatwave, and none of us are big fans of heat and humidity. (Cooler-than-London-would-be was part of the reason we chose Tallinn. That was the theory, anyway. It was like the time we went to Prague for New Year and I promised Joy snow. That didn’t work out either.) But, after a couple of days, we hit our holiday stride, and we found that Tallinn is pretty and interesting, Estonia is big a...

In answer to your two most likely questions: 1. It’s the capital of Estonia. 2. Because it’s historical enough for Ned, interesting enough for Joy, different, not too hot, and not too far away. And it looks kinda pretty. While I’m away, there will be guest blogs, an interview with the lovely Persephone people, a preview of the Bah! BBB books for next Sunday, news of Team Bah!, and a poem. (I’m nervous about the poem.) So, please keep coming by. I’ll see you on 2 August. (Alan was a little concerned about publishing the fact that we are away, until Ned and I reminded him that Hard Pete and Dave the Knuckle will be house-sitting, and bringing their dogs Ripper and Doom.

But, I swear that this is the honest truth. This actually happened in my house this evening. Time to take down the Christmas tree. Our tree is one of those “umbrella” type trees that comes in 4 sections. The limbs fold out when you set it up. I got the top section off but could not get the other sections apart. So, I waited until my husband came home to lend a hand. We got the 2nd section off without any trouble but the 3rd section was just plain stuck. We tugged and pulled. We turned the tree on it’s side and upside down. It just would not come apart. Finally, I got on the floor pulling in one direction while hubby was standing pulling in another directi... bipolar chicks blogging blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1127389 Thu, 03 Jan 2008 03:15:29 +0100 1127389 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=1090519&cid=t_313155_140_f&fid=35448&url=http%3A%2F%2Fseemedlikeagoodideathetime.com%2F2007%2F12%2F12%2Ffeeling-green-grumpy-how-about-you%2F (by feline9) This time of year just does it to me EVERY time… I don’t know why… maybe it’s because I’m a die-hard fan of Dr. Suess….? Maybe it’s because I’m no longer 12 years old…? Maybe it’s because the “food” festivities do not bring me comfort… (if you’ll remember, I’m a “recovering”-boo-hiss-take-my-scale-away-kicking-and-screaming-anorexic)… I dunno… but whatever it is….
