Bill Holden Christmas Want

Kate Gabrielle created this super cool ornament of a young and hunky William Holden. I really wanted it to add some steamy heat to a cold Christmas tree but resisted the urge to buy it. (It's so hard to stay out of debt!) Isn't it just fab?!

From Renee

Here's a look at the box of goodies that Renee had sent me on December 23rd, 2017. I knew instantly it was from her by all the star stickers covering the box. As always, she went way overboard. Her sweetness and thoughtfulness could never be reeled in!

2021's Holiday Cards Have Posted!

Merry Merry Mixie (AKA Chagrinning)

Here's 2021's December playlist and I really kind of love it. It's a mega holiday mix for my trip to Ohio. I knew I'd be spending the beginning of December in lovely Chagrin Falls and wanted a lengthy playlist to have on while driving around town and also just chillaxing back at the house. It's one of my best. Can't wait to drive around looking at the holiday lights with this on in the background.
