holiday pics
Now that Thanksgiving is just around the corner--at least here in the US--it's time to think about shopping for presents and here's a few pictures to put you in the mood. For shopping, that is.
Any cynical folk out there might be thinking that I'm posting this in an attempt to put off writing my novel on NaNoWriMo--and you're probably correct.
It's just too many words for one month! Dammit.
So anyway, here you have a cute dog in the midst of scraps of wrapping paper. Awwww!
His name is Tibbet which represents his breed, Tibetan Terrier. He looks very energetic in the picture. Looks are very deceiving here! His only energy is displayed when either food is at hand, or squirrels are in the yard.
Here's a lovely Winter scene on cotton. I took the picture using ambient light so that the flash wouldn't drown out the effect of the lights under the cotton.
Please forgive the lack of clothing on a few of the subjects. They know not what they do!
Here we have a rogue's gallery of angels. I think they're on break or something. The one closest to us seems to be snoozing.
WAKE UP!
Oh well, she looks a little frayed anyway. Laughing anyone? She's made of rope, people! Frayed, rope. Get it?
Jeeze. I need a better audience!

The picture-on-cotton is stunning. Good strategy to go ambient. It has an almost ethereal quality to it.
OK, Michele sent me, but I'm now going to bug out our family to the mall. The winds are getting worse, and things are flying through the air. Later...I hope!
anyhoo, love your chtistmas pics. as it happens, we will be putting up our christmas decorations by this week. we always start off early here. :)
I am putting off my NaNoWriMo for sure...signed up then nadda, zilch I have written a total of 0 so far.... yet I blog on. :-)
Here from Michele's :-)
Michelle sent me today...again :o)
Your last paragraph reminds me of a joke about a rope in a bar, stop me if you've heard it before!
Although mine won't have snow, but it will have tropical islands...beaches....
Dawn, what an interesting idea!
I often use blogging as a way of putting off doing real work - one of the hazards of working from home, as it means I end up doing work stuff in a rush at midnight!
Christmas frenzy is in full flow here in the UK, as we have no thanksgiving to get in the way, and Bonfire Night is ever & done with.
Funny! I bet a lot of teens have tried to claim that, grown ups to.
A frayed angel. Hmm. Well, maybe she's my guardian angel...I know it can't be an easy job...
So, 3 pieces of string walk into a bar. The first one asks for a beer. The bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve string here." The second string asks for wine. He says," Nope, we don't serve string." The third string ties himself in a knot and frays his top half, walks up to the bar and asks for a martini. The bartender says "Arn't you a string?" And the string says, "No, Sir. I'm a frayed knot."
Get it? Hyuk Hyuk.
How did the turkey turn out? Ot is in still in the oven? LOL
