Yes, my friends, that is a true statement. I saw it on a Sears commercial last Saturday. I just thought it was odd...
Okay, so I'm working on a Christmassy tag. I'm not sure why it's Christmassy, but it has to do with "The Sound of Music," which is always played around Christmas (I'm not sure why), so it must be Christmassy.
I've been painting non-stop for the past four days, and now have three and a half Christmas cards to show for it! One of them is completely unlike any painting I've done before, yet it turned out (if I may say so) awesome!! So some of you will be getting that from us before too long, and the rest of you will have to wait until all our cards have gone out to get a glimpse of it on here. :) Actually, Most of you will get them in the mail.
Grandma and Grandpa said I should put my Christmas List on here, so here's a partial one. Maybe I'll stick the full thing on my sidebar. (* marks the ones I want, @ marks the ones I need, and # marks the ones I want so bad that I almost need them. :)
- @Paint brushes (Mom has a set that I like. It's Loew-Cornell brand, and it has 10 brushes in it. The reason I like her set is because the bristles are stiffer than the set I own. I guess just about any watercolor brushes would be great, especially if they're rather stiff.)
- @paint palette (porcelain or plastic, either one works well for me!
- @watercolor pad (I'm half-way through the last page in mine! I love the way this one looks, or one of these three books would be nice. Except I don't care whether or not it's wind-powered paper.)
- *knee socks!! (How can you NOT like knee socks?!?!? They're so much fun! And if you get one pair of every color and pattern, you'll have one pair for every outfit you own.)
- *Diary from Walden Books. (I was there the other day and found this super-cute diary there! I wanted to buy it, but I was already buying another book for myself. Wish there was a picture online, but Walden/Borders apparently 'doesn't have' diaries. >:P Maybe I'll take a picture of it to put on here sometime.)
- #fluffy fleece bathrobe (Sis has one, and I want it! Mine was pale pink [and not fleece], but now it's kinda dirty pink, and no amount of washing is going to get all the little fuzzies off!)
- *#@volleyball
- *Emily Climbs and Emily's Quest by L.M. Montgomery. (I found Emily of New Moon at Goodwill the other day and read it in 36 hours. Now I want the other two in the series!)
- *pretty much any interesting books
- #waterproof pens for my pen watercolor work
- *jewelry
- **Downhere cds: "How Many Kings?" "So Much for Substitutes" "Thunder After Lightning"
- **Jason Gray cds: "Everything Sad is Coming Untrue" and "All the Lovely Losers"
- **Daniel Kirkley cd: "Let Love Win" (only $5.00 in his online store! :D)
- *Kutless cd? "It is Well" and possibly "To Know That You're Alive" (ya, they weird looking, but he has a good voice!)
- @@@snazzy new car (It has to be large enough for me and at least 3 friends, it has to be able to drive on the road legally, and it has to look cool. I specify the first two because, knowing my relatives, they'd think it funny to give me one of THESE.)
- @@@laptop computer (identical to this one, only with a better temperament.)
- #diamond earrings.
- **bandannas and scarves!
- #gloves
- @@@dishwasher (electric. to put in my kitchen and wash all them dishes for me!)
- **##@@Bermuda. The whole island.
Okay, that's most of it. I'm sure I could think of some more, but, given the time, I'll quit now. :D For some of those things there's a very fine line between wanting and needing them (Bermuda. Laptop. Dishwasher.).
what are some of the things that are on your Christmas lists, all you readers?? Let me know. :D
Ta-ta

p.s. the background on here is going to change again on December 21st, just to give y'all a warning!

Haha! You want an island?! If you got that would you move away to somewhere in the pacific ocean and never come back?! (Psst, Kiwi's grandparents, don't get her the island!!)
A car would be very cool. Especially one that seats three friends. :D I also like the knee-socks--they're pretty cool! Stripes and patterns and all kinds of funky, poetretic stuff. Scarves are an excellent thing to ask for--hats, too!
I have no idea what's on my list. I normally don't make one, it's too hard to come up with something I want. :P Besides, Mom says that Christmas will not be big on presents this year.
It's now, officially, but one week more. Superfun Sunday, here we come! :D
lol, idk what I want... =) Actually, I DO have a list, but it's on Amazon.com, and if I go to it I'll see if people have gotten me anything yet... So I'd better not. =P Oops, see I'm doing it again...AGH!! =P Anyways.=) I had like three things which I wanted... lol, a dream list would be: all of Eowyn's dresses/outfits, maybe an Arwen dress with a slightly altered neckline, an amazing acting talent, a nice archery bow, arrows, a sword and sheath, a Regency-era dress, a Civil War era dress, a Revolutionary War era dress, a digital video camera, a ticket to meet my REALLY GOOD TPS friends, and perhaps the ability to sing beautifully, and play the piano beautifully, and a wonderful acting talent. ha, there it is. *grins* For some reason I kinda doubt I'm going to get all of that... =P
*sighs* Everything Sad Is Coming Untrue? That is one of the best lines in Return of the King... =) I WANT TO WATCH THOSE MOVIES AGAIN!! =( lol, sorry... ;)

XD Your list amuses me. Bermuda. lol.
I want Knee socks too. The only problem is i have no idea what to wear them with besides a mini skirt which i probably wouldn't be allowed to wear.
yeah.
K bai =)
Six. :)
Your uncle and aunt used to have 4 dishwashers, as they'd often remind us. The dishwashers just happened to be human. ;)
What's on my list? A lot of DVDs, a few CDs, and, shockingly, very few books. Not a lot is interesting me lately. :( But I'm sure that will change.
If you get a tropical island, can I come and visit you? ;)
