Don’t the days and weeks go by fast. Thanksgiving has gone by and Christmas will be soon here. Right after Thanksgiving I start with my Christmas cards. I have always loved writing them out and putting a little note in them, especially those far away and tell them how things are going back here. I hope what happened September 11th won’t get us all down as we have to keep up the Christmas spirit, after all do we remember what really happened on Christmas?
. . . . .
To you
May the Giver of Gifts give Unto you that which is good,
That which is true, the will to Help, the courage to do;
A heart that can sing
The whole day through,
Whether the skies are
Gray, or blue
May the Giver of Gifts
Give these to you.
. . . . .

At Breakfast, Grandma asked 4-year-old Susie if she’d said her prayers the night before. “Well, I started to” Susie said, “Then I thought God must get so tired of hearing, “Now I lay me down to sleep, so I told him the story of the three bears instead.”
. . . . .
Sven: If it took 9 men 9 hours to build a brick wall, how much time would it take 6 men to build it?
Ole: NONE, because da 9 men have already done da vork.
. . . . .
The Bible - like a Bank - is most helpful when it is open.
. . . . .
Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today; tomorrow there may be a law against it.
. . . . .
Remember this December: That “Love” weighs more than gold!
. . . . .
The gang’s all here
To trim the tree.
It’s such a lot of fun!
But when it’s time to take it down
Where is anyone!
. . . . .
A helping purse
Do you carry cough drops, pens, pencils, kleenex, small calendar, address book, telephone numbers, social security numbers, drivers license, check book, clean paper to leave a note, some string, safety pins, small scissors, nail clipper, hard candy, needle and thread, band-aids, scotch tape, small screwdriver and your favorite Bible verse.
. . . . .
How about this?
While eating a typical dinner, the average person swallows 295 times - try counting them.
. . . . .
When someone graduates from the McDonald’s school for franchises, they are bestowed with a Bachelor of Hamburgeralogy.
. . . . .
Wild elephants sleep only two hours in the middle of the night. This is not for safety’s sake for they fear no predators, but must use the other 22 hours a day to find enough food to maintain their weight.
. . . . .
Hints
Place an apple among stored potatoes. The apples give off enough ethylene gas to stop growth on the potatoes.
. . . . .
Add about 1/4 cup leftover dill pickles vinegar to chili next time you make it. This gives a good and different flavor.
. . . . .
