You survived shopping in December though and that's no mean feat. Every time I head out shopping in December, I grind my teeth a little lower. Soon I'll need dental implants.<br /><br />CBChristine B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08335289758548637661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462867846580440325.post-12214391215694063622012-12-10T18:25:05.624-08:002012-12-10T18:25:05.624-08:00Drat, did I have something positive in there?

I can't remember which store (or which song) but I decided right then and there that a "honky-tonk Christmas" was NOT for me. Somehow I'll get by. <br /><br />I suppose with temps ranging from 0 to negative 0, I'd be a bit on the grumpsy side too! You're entitled. And yes, the upside to the completely beyond overdone Christmas music is that by and large it is without profanity. I haven't seen "Bad Santa" but if it has a soundtrack, I imagine earplugs would be in order. Cheers! <br /><br /> <br /><br />GRACE PETERSONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04520343332670354262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462867846580440325.post-89235805864788747792012-12-09T14:12:14.638-08:002012-12-09T14:12:14.638-08:00=) Re: #7, Hee, hee.

Good one. #6, way to get a positive spin!<br /><br />We have 2 friends living north of the Arctic Circle in AK, and one of them was walking home (from the office??) and it was SO so cold & snowy his eyes started freezing shut (via eyelashes, apparently) so he could hardly see, and for no apparent reason he'd actually locked his house, which he NEVER DOES (and never will do). He was SO COLD he could hardly get the key out and get the door to open, and he thought "Trust me to die from locking myself out in a snow storm."<br /><br />He, too, reconsidered his strategy and will no longer lock his house or take optional walks when it's MEGA-maybe-kill-you kinda cold.<br /><br />Best of luck!! And congrats on coming up with something to write on an Alaskan gardening blog. Nicely done! =)biobabblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15081382623906668057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462867846580440325.post-7828920930129718422012-12-09T04:06:24.395-08:002012-12-09T04:06:24.395-08:00Welcome to the Bah Humbug club so far I've not...Welcome to the Bah Humbug club so far I've not spotted a fluorescent Santa dangling from a chimney yet - it must the price of electricity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462867846580440325.post-85840029895643159652012-12-07T11:12:23.990-08:002012-12-07T11:12:23.990-08:00The Last Frontier Garden blog is awash in made up ...The Last Frontier Garden blog is awash in made up stuff, but number 4 is entirely bona fide. <br /><br />I have been on Amazon.com wayyyy too much this month.
