    Silver Bells.
    City sidewalks,
    busy sidewalks
    Dressed in holiday style
    In the air there’s a
    feeling of Christmas
    Children laughing,
    people passing
    Meeting smile after smile
    and on every street corner
    you’ll hear
    Silver bells, silver bells
    It’s Christmas time in the city
    Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
    Soon it will be Christmas day
    Strings of street lights
    Even stop lights
    blink a bright red and green
    As the shoppers rush
    home with their treasures
    Hear the snow crunch
    See the kids bunch
    This is Santa’s big scene
    And above all this bustle
    You’ll hear
    Silver bells, silver bells
    It’s Christmas time in the city
    Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
    Soon it will be Christmas day

I will stay warm best way I can.

    Morning all! I'd say good morning, but it's really not! The ice storm has come to North Texas! All the schools are closed & roads are impassable! Glad I don't have to go anywhere! Guess I'll just hunker down & sew! Temps aren't supposed to be above freezing til next week.
    Dreamer....one of my favorites! Love the photo! Where ever do you find them?
    We're down to 2 days til opening! Well, and a few hours, but who's counting? Dedemac has it down to the seconds!!

    Today's hint: You're a fellow Secret Santa & this isn't your first sleigh ride!

    Ho ho ho... just two days to go!

    And looks like many of us will be having a White Christmas for Opening Day!

    Here's a wish that everyone stays safe and warm. We have a sheet of ice on the ground, sleet is falling now, and we're due to get a nice fluffy six inches of snow on top of that. More snow is due to arrive on Sunday so, if nothing else, I should have a picture postcard view out my window on Opening Day.

    Calling in from the southern branch of the North Pole !!!! We have 1 1/2 inches of ice - and it's more than a foot deep around the house where the sleet just bounced off....and as other Texans have weighed in - we won't be above freezing for several days. My Junko friends were lined up on the back wall waiting for breakfast this morning, so had to just toss the see out the back door. Stay warm everyone [ATTACH=CONFIG]450163[/ATTACH]

    Tree in my front yard this morning is 29 degree weather....and 2 days ago we were in the high 70's.

    The boxing is telling me to open it up. I am suppose to deliver a quilt to my longarm quilt when we are due to open our packages. Weather pending on getting on the roads.

    Cindy, I know the feeling! My house doesn't look as bad as yours....yet! But I'm just to the east of you! We'll get it before the days over! Hunkering down warm & cozy...so far.
