It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas………everywhere you go (oops…..this sounds like a song doesn’t it?!). My little town of Warrenton puts on a great display down Main Street (all eight blocks of it) with little white lights in EVERY SINGLE store window – greenery around all the street lamps, and lots of window displays including some animations.
Here at my house, we have everything DONE inside and out. My negligent Mom has still not gone outside at night to take photos of my outside lights but maybe I can get her to do that tonight. Maybe.
Meanwhile I’m collecting a whole lot of Christmas cards of both type – ecards and “paper” cards – and my Mom and Dad only have a couple but I’m RAKING THEM IN!!!! I’ve also had some surprise boxes arrive for ME from Scout friends – there are so many kind people in this world……..Mom won’t let me open a SINGLE thing until Christmas morning though. HUMBUG MOM!
Here are just SOME of the ecards cards I’ve received!
I have more – I have cards in abundance – and I’m thrilled about each and every single one of them – I thank everyone from the bottom of my old furry heart!
If you don’t have one from ME, forgive my oversight! I’ve posted it before but am posting it again because it’s from ME to ALL of you with love……………………….forever.
Happy holidays Sammy! Xx

HAHAHA……I figured your Mom would have to put the wrapped stuff WAY UP HIGH (like in the attic) to keep you from Unwrapping everything! Well, destruction is something you do SO well my friend! Ugly Jim looks pretty good in your photos with Santa today on your blog. I noticed that Santa had sweat pants on….but I figure that’s just to keep his “ornaments” warm while he flies around in the sky – right?????

Hi Dezi and Lexi…….The house looks nice but we don’t go too crazy with decorating……mostly we love having our Christmas tree up. Mom and Dad have collected ornaments from all their trips and have some of their childhood ornaments on there too and THAT’s always nice. Every ornament is a memory.

Your mum is all done? Sadly, my peeps are getting worse and worse with the Christmas preparations each year. Just when I think think they’ve hit a new low… MOUSES! They manage to hit another. The tree is STILL not up although I have heard that might happen this weekend. Santa has STILL not collected the knitted biff bags for him to deliver on Christmas Eve. Again, I’m hoping to catch him this weekend. Peep hasn’t sent out cards yet and is ‘claiming’ it’s for the best as peeps might have a heart attack or something if they were to get their cards on time. And as for Christmas goodies… Let’s just say, I haven’t noticed any we we cats might like yet but I’m hoping for good things, soon. Heard the peeps talking and there might even be come real chicken coming our way in the next few days. As a cat living with a couple of veggies, I’m looking forward to that, for sure.
Purrs,

REAL CHICK-HEN? Well, Seville, that might be worth waiting patiently for. REAL food is scarce when you live with veggies that’s for sure!
