HI ALL!! quiet time before the holiday?

    "    And it sure been a cold cold winter, and the wind ain't been blowin' from the south, it's sure been a cold cold winter, and a lotta love is all burned out, it sure been a hard hard winter, my feet been draggin' 'cross the ground, and I hope it's gonna be a long hot summer, and a lotta love will be burning bright, and I wish I been out in California, when the lights on all the Christmas trees went out, but I been burnin' my bell book and candle, and the restoration plays have all gone 'round    "    Well we once again approach "that time of year". I think all the plans are made and progressing along just fine. Had a VERY bad time trying to make a batch of Hot Buttered Rum mix. WOW!! Ended up throwing it out, and will make a new batch later this week. I broke the container the batch was in, I spilled a bunch of it on the counter, I could NOT get the butter to blend in to the rest of the mix, etc. Just problem, problem. problem!! And I have made this mix probably around 20 times in the past, with out ANY issues. So I will start anew! All the gifts arrived on time!! They are all now wrapped and ready to be opened!! Got eBay going I ran two sales, the second one offered 15% off! It runs until Monday night, no sales yet, but we'll be patient and see what happens. I think I am done with listing items until after the New Year. I should get my replacement cell phone back in the next several days. Hopefully the bluetooth works this time!! Will be spending the next few days running errands and getting the last minute items for the TWO Christmas dinners we are putting together this year. Should be a JOLLY time. CHOW MOI!!
