Quite a few years...I’m with you…I hate the things! Quite a few years ago my youngest son came home from school to find a bird flying through our house. It had fallen in through the chimney…we were both hysterical and it took forever to get that thing out of the house. Thankfully, nothing was destroyed, but the next day I had a chimney company out to install a new cap!Benitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712521705008463049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-73946424322868481522015-12-29T18:09:58.765-06:002015-12-29T18:09:58.765-06:00What a great idea!!

I had never heard of a colly bird before. I feel so smart now, haha. This is such a good idea to delve into the deeper meaning of a Christmas carol, Benita. I do hope that you have covered your floors and furniture with all of those birds you have right now ;)Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03017368307967996380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-29693908797210264782015-12-28T21:38:38.528-06:002015-12-28T21:38:38.528-06:00I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

It seems that the holidays always end up pressuring us more than we ever wanted them to and we end up caving in to the whims of the season. I keep telling myself every year that I will start my Christmas shopping in January and not let it get the best of me, but that never happens. Relaxing this time of year is the best thing for sure and we have been trying to do some of that as well. And yes, the "to do" list....I may burn mine as part of my New Year's Resolution! ;-)<br /><br />Love and hugs to you! So looking forward to being able to get up there some time in January!!Benitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712521705008463049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-26727271947407796522015-12-28T21:27:29.840-06:002015-12-28T21:27:29.840-06:00You are very welcome! :-)You are very welcome! :-)Benitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712521705008463049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-76922642167832128642015-12-28T21:01:53.236-06:002015-12-28T21:01:53.236-06:00I have been visiting family and missed the first f...I have been visiting family and missed the first few days, but enjoyed this post immensely and am hurrying back to previous posts to see how it all began.

I always thought ...I love little facts like these! I always thought the birds looked like doves and they coo to one anther as they mate for life and each 'coo' is personal! :) Just my thought! Ha!<br /><br />I hope you had a wonderful Christmas, Benita. I wish I were a bear---no scratch that. An opossum maybe, and could just go hibernate till spring! I have a few more busy weeks but for now I'm just relaxing and trying not to make a big deal out of the small things. We put so much pressure on ourselves and this year, well, I buried myself in endless multi tasking as a way to deal with some painful issues. Next year I will pace myself. That's the good thing about having a blog. You can go back and look at all the crazy darn things you did the year before and scratch them off your To Do List! lol!<br /><br />Love to you, pretty lady,<br /><br />Jane xBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-758780567770747669.post-78907781526149169342015-12-28T19:37:12.306-06:002015-12-28T19:37:12.306-06:00It just keeps getting more and more interesting......It just keeps getting more and more interesting.....!AnnMarie aka Vintage Junkie aka NaNahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01969507879772949374noreply@blogger.com
