MIDDLE-AGED WOMEN 40-60ish

The shots may or may not be permanent. Depends on whether your body "learns" to not spasm. I had to have the epidurals in both my neck and spine repeated. Very painful to get, but I'd been on Oxycodone for 9 months....

"Ho, ho ho, little boy. HO. HO, HO."

I couldn't get the pic from when Santa is booting Ralphie down the Santa-slide, so this will have to do.  This film is up in my TOP 5 for the Holidays.

What's it from elimar?

Meece

There was a little boy in the news this week that did this.  EMTs poured warm water on it, and although his tongue was bloody, he continued his walk to school.

Meece

It's from "A Christmas Story"  Classic

Marple

I love that movie too.  Life seemed uncomplicated.

Meece

I think they have a Halmark ornament of the "leg lamp" this year.

Meece

Sorry, it is an American Greetings ornament.

I still love Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer in cartoon and still get stressed out watching it! For that reason I don't watch any others.

Meece

Why does it stress you out?  Could it be the annoying toot his nose makes?  Or the thought of having a tooth pulled out?

Hey Meece, can you post your "prunes and broccoli" tree on here.  We need some roughage!

Barbe, keep an eye on Family Channel on cable, I think it shows "A Christmas Story" at least a dozen times per year. I think it came out in the late 70's or early 80's, so it's not from our kiddie years.  I don't think I even saw it until the 90's with my kids.

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Nebraska Grandma!  My nephew is a teacher at NSU and my neice is a freshman there.  They both came from Washington State, so I am sure it is culture shock.  THis is my nephew's second year, so he's probably accustomed by now.

Gimme a second, Elimar, and the tree will be here.  I am home sick today so I shouldn't be in the kitchen whipping up any new decorations for fear I might transmit my cooties.

A Christmas Story - TBS- Christmas Eve 8 pm

Meece

Here it is, Elimar.  I lost a couple of ornaments while I was moving it from the other thread.  I think I got them put back in the same place.  It's going to be difficult to keep moving it back and forth for you.

Good job, Meece. That's what I'm talkin' about!

I guess I could try stringing some CHEETOS onto a garland, but I would really need an aluminum tree to bring forth all the orange glory.  

Meece

Oooooooooh, Cheetos!!! I am going to have to send my son out to "get Mommy some to make her feel better."

I rememebr one of the first posts I read here in BC.Ogr-land was how Cheetos go with anything except a white pansuit.  I got hooked right then and there.

Marple

Cheetos would look lovely but between me and the dog they wouldn't make it till Christmas!!!

Marple

This is how I like to eat 'em.

Meece

I didn't know the camera was real when we were playing Photographer/Model!

Marple

Decorating with Cheetos.

Your tree is very pretty, Meece.  I like the purple ornaments and the grapes.

On my budget, Cheeto garlands would be rather extravigant.  Now generic Cheerios would be cheap enough, but they're not very colorful. 

Marple

LOL @ Meece

desdemona222b

Oh Sharon, those photos are priceless!  Love the Cheetos in the soap holder!

Meece

Hey, my budget stretched thanks to the Dollar Tree Store.

I am afraid I would not waste the Cheetos feeding them to my plants unless I could go "One for you, one for me"

Meece

I am having a party today, girls.  Here is a picture from my webcam.  Come on over!

desdemona222b

You know, you're right, Meece.  Factor in the length of the Cheetos, and it may just be more economical to do the Dollar Tree Cheetos.
