Good morning everyone
Happy Friday
For those that haven't there are only 7 !! shopping days left till Santa

Rough morning here in NE FL , it was not another "pleasurable" Dentist visit yesterday this was with the regular Dentist to get a crown put on a back tooth I cracked.
They do not use the same happy pills that the root canal dentist used . No problem I have Valium that should do the same thing. Wrong !! There is way much more work involved with a crown and resulting pain
So let's just say I am not a very happy camper today

So this may be a short version of

Today's Question(s):

Have you ever fallen asleep while sitting at your computer ?

Bonus Question:

Do you have a gift wrapping "station" in you home ?

Do you wrap as you buy or wait till your done and have a "wrap-a-thon"

Just for Fun:

Have you ever made snowflakes by folding up paper and cutting little pieces out to make the design ?


Today in History:
1719- Thomas Fleet of Boston published his mother-in-law's tales in the book, Mother Goose
1892 - "Nutcracker Suite," Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky's ballet, premieres
1936 - Su Lin arrived in San Francisco, California. She was the first giant panda to come to the U.S. from China.
1966 - Dr. Seuss' "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" airs for 1st time on CBS


Word of the Day:
diaphanous \dy-AF-uh-nuhs\ , adjective;

2. Vague; insubstantial.
