Hello, my elfin friends! How are you? I know, I know. It s-worded. Half an inch the other night. I’ve had time to process and accept it, so from now on I’ll call it by it’s real name: snoop, snuff, er, snot, oh my, I’m sorry, SNOW, damnit, snow! OK, it’s December and it snowed. I really should get over it. And I have. Almost. Until the next time it snobs. The weather now appears to have been a bad omen for our sainted, most magnificent, illustrious, glorious Green Bay Packers, who, sadly, lost a game to the lowly Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday past. Oh my, oh my, oh my. Oh dear. I guess I’m processing the loss, but I don’t know how long it will me take to get over it. I was so tempted to add to the game with some psychic phenomena, but I promised not to interfere. With that, our heroes stumbled and fell. Well, then, good, they got that out of the way and there is no more pressure to maintain a prefect record. Now, the Packers can do what they do best: play football. Sunday hence, on Christmas Day, Green Bay will meet archenemy the Chicago Bears, at 7:20 PM, Lambeau Field. What better gift for His birthday than a sound thrashing of the Bears? Maul the Bears, Packers! Muzzle them.
Christmas is only four days away and I still haven’t finished all of my decorating and shopping. Junior could do some of the decorating, but the only time I see him is when I’m baking Christmas cookies. Well, what needs to get done, will, and what doesn’t, won’t. It all turns out fine on Christmas Day. Those of you stressing out in the hustle and the bustle of the holidays, remember to take time out for yourselves. Certainly you can find fifteen minutes to do some deep breathing exercises and knock back a few shots of your favorite libation. You owe it to yourselves. Unwind, deflate, relax.
In the spirit of the season, here is a 1952 cartoon, “Pluto’s Christmas Tree”:
Oh my, tee-hee, I really enjoy those rascals, Chip and Dale. Poor Pluto.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy holiday schedule to read my blog. I so enjoy our visits. I also love the feelings of goodwill that come with Christmas. I hope that all of you have joyous holidays. Peace on earth.

Now be careful my dear, dear Irregulars and regulars, just in case it snores again. I would like a white Christmas, but that doesn’t necessarily mean 10 inches. Please enjoy making each other happy. Palpebrate!

The sad thing is I remember that cartoon. I use to watch it with my kids when they where younger. I hope you have a safe and Merry Christmas.
Wow Mme Z, you are really on your game today. Elfin friends? That's good. The Bears an archenemy? Even better. Chip & Dales and 10 inches, I can't remark on that. But palpebrate? What do we do Eskimo kiss? Merry Christmas Mme Z, you are the best.
Merry Christmas Madame to you and yours. And a very Happy New Year! You do make my Wednesdays.
Unfortunately our Packers didn’t show up at 100%, they only played in spurts and you can win like that. But they will trash the Bears....!
Yes the weather has been weird to say the least; I’m hoping we don’t get one of the “dumps” like we did (I can remember) last year or the year before in February when we got hit 24 inches at one time!
I hope everyone has a great Christmas and don’t spend to much money, Christmas isn’t about giving gifts!
BTW Madame, I too was saddened by the Packers loss. Like SER said, they didn't play well at all.
However like (again) SER said, they will trash the Bears.
GO PACK GO!!!!
Happy Holidays, Madame. I really enjoyed the Chip and Dale cartoon. May you, Junior and the Senor have a great Christmas. Thank you for your weekly columns. I so look forward to them.
This clip really brings back memories... it wasn't Christmas until I saw this one and Hardrock, Coco and Joe on Ray Raynor. I guess it didn't take too much to make me happy back in the day.

I never saw that cartoon, kk. I was probably watching the Three Stooges.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you. Thank you for the well wishes.
Ms. Mary, I was so affected by the Packer's loss that I thought of wearing a black turban of mourning in my blog photo this week, but then I realized that the spirit of Christmas should prevail over the loss.
Mr. jedwis, I'm palpebrating at you as I write this.
