That's a really pretty tree, OGal! Love the big white bulbs!

I saw on Gamma'a blog where you are feeling a little under the weather. I hope it passes quickly!

Good luck on the baking!

Beautiful tree! Looks like Kitty knows which gift to pick out :)

I'm late this year and got everything finally done but the indoor decorations...that's tomorrow's agenda :)

Hope you feel better soon!

Hi OGal!

I echo everyone's sentiments in that you'll be able to nurse yourself back to health in reasonable time before the big holidays! You've done a magnificent job decorating your home for Christmas and hope you can just kick back awhile and enjoy the scenery from within. There's no shame in asking your hubby or other loved ones for help while under the weather. I'm sure you do enough to help them when they're sick, so fair is fair.

Continue to take it easy, and I'll try and check back with you again real soon!

The flu? Oh, no! The only positive spin I can put on it is that it happened this week instead of next week!

Take care!

Get better soon dear friend. The flu is the pits and hopefully it is one of those that is short lived. Take your meds, get plenty of rest, drink ginger tea to soothe the tummy, aspirin for fever and plenty of fluids to flush it out. None of us wants to feel miserable this close to Christmas. So much to do but do take care of yourself first, all else will fall into place when its suppose to. BIG HUGS girl. Thinking of you.

Oh dear Ogal,

I am so sorry you are getting Flu 8 days before Christmas.

Hope it is not one that last 10 days or longer.

Take care, get rest, drink liquids... did you get your flu shot this year?

Feel better my friend!

Now that's real nice of you to give the kitty her own indoor tree while you are feeling under the weather.

Here's wishing your ornaments stay intact and your nose gets unstuffed.

I am just not a good sick person. I know I am sick when all I want to do is hang out on the couch. Thanks goodness I got all the Christmas planned and completed before this bug hit. Gonna take it easy again today and tomorrow then try to get back into some kind of schedule.


Thank you so much for the kind comments. They mean so much to me. Hopefully by the middle of next week I will be back to normal.


Don't be like me.....get a flu shot.

Hei OGal! Just droppin' in to say 'HI!' as I'm flyin' in low and fast! I made a new post to
raise a few brows - courtesy of a rather humorous WUcomputer glitch -
and to make a presence to keep my WUcitizenship active. ". >

Y'all take care.

See y'all on the flip-flop.

My doctor told me the flu shot doesn't stop you getting flu - it stops you getting it bad enough to be life-threatening:(

I do hope you are beginning to feel more human...... :-)

Oh, OGal... Not the flu. How awful.

Good thing you had everything more or less done and/or planned out before this hit.

You just take it easy, rest, drink plenty of fluids and hopefully, you'll be better by this coming weekend.

Did you call your doctor? There are those anti-virals you can take that will alleviate the symptoms and shorten the span. There's a short window of opportunity to start taking them, though. Within 24 hours of onset of symptoms, I think. They can also keep Hubby from contracting it.

I had the flu about 20 years ago. I thought it was a cold, at first, and called in sick at work. I progressively got worse as the day went on. Hubby got home from work to find me in the throes of severe ague and high fever. He's totally clueless, went into a panic and ran next door for the neighbor lady, thinking that I was dying. (I did feel like I was! LOL) She told him it was probably the flu and to call our doctor. He prescribed the anti virals and gave us a double scrip, so that HUbby could take them, too. He never got sick, despite sleeping in the same bed.

Sandi, no, the flu shots won't ward off all flu viruses. They're geared towards the one they feel will be most prevalent that year. You can still get the flu and having had a flu shot can help keep it from being really bad.

We are required to get them at work. If you can't take the flu shot, or won't, you have to wear a face mask from Jan 1st through March 31st.

Feeling stronger each day. Yesterday was a good day. Son arrived about 2;30 and we had a great catch up visit. Today the pool gurus are going to try to find our pool leak...good luck! Humm....isn't it always something.

My neighbor the car working periodontist decided to work on something in his garage last night, probably one of his old card. He always works with music and last night the tom toms resonated in our bedroom. Just what I needed. This went on until 10:30. it will not go on tonight.....

Hope y'all are making it through the final days to C. I just found my family will even eat store bought cookies...No baking. I may hold off until Easter.

Hi OGal!

Glad to hear you're feeling a bit perkier while recuperating from the flu, taking it a bit easy and your son will be home soon to share Christmas with you and hubby! May you also be able to enjoy the remainder of the month leading to each of the big holidays!



WISH IT WERE WARM ENOUGH UP HERE TO GO TO THE BEACH! WE HAD AN OVERNIGHT LOW OF TEN DEGREES! OUCH! LOL!

Hi, Ogal, glad you're feeling better! I guess the pool gurus have to drain your pool and check for leaks, and then patch it? I'm not sure how it works for an in-ground pool.

Good luck!

Glad to read you are feeling better! Trucker has been gnawing off a few bows off our presents. I knew there was a reason I never put anything under the tree. But I know he is not eating it, as I find the residue he leaves behind. What I mean by that is, he just chews off some ribbon - but doesn't eat it. Didn't mean anything else but that :)

We were going to have a Wii day ourselves, but then ended up doing some last minute shopping and book reading on the couch with a little nap thrown in there. Now, we're contemplating dinner...I think spaghetti and a salad are in order.

Ogal, hope you are feeling much better by now and enjoying Christmas with your family!


From our Home to Yours
Merry Christmas and a Healthy & Happy New Year 2012!






"And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow,
stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons.
It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags.
And he puzzled and puzzled, till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn%u2019t before.
What if Christmas, he thought, doesn%u2019t come from a store.
What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more."

- Dr. Seuss

OGAL - those pictures you posted on FB of hubby and son doing the skiing Wii have put me in the mood. I think it's time for some skiing or bowling! I also set up our Wii on our wireless as we are contemplating getting Netflix streaming - although my daughter said the DVD mail order version has more recent movies. But it was fun to set it up and get the weather and news on there just the same! I've had that thing for over 3 years and wireless for nearly 3 and just realized I could do that! Oh well, it's nice to learn new things!

We can now use our 52" screen TV as a computer monitor! Oh no! Oversized WU or Facebook!!! LOL

Merry Christmas OGal and family! You did get us on the Wii yesterday -we bowled 3 games before we had dinner and went out with our daughter and her boyfriend to enjoy the lights in Naples (home on the water walking through canals!)

See you soon!

Good Morning. We are cloudy and warm here in the land of Mickey and Minnie. Yesterday was a go to the beach day with the temp reaching 85 degrees. Today with the clouds and the slight possibility of rain we will not be as warm. A very strange Christmas Eve day. Last year we were covering plants due to the chance of a major frost. This year we are in shorts and flip flops. Hope your Christmas Eve day is lovely in your part of the US.


Karen, love your picture. Thank you! Glad you got out the ole WII. I have laughed so hard at the bowling. Have a wonderful Christmas. See ya after the big day.
