Hello everyone!

It's been a while since I've posted here. The month of December has been very busy for me, full of highs and lows. First of all, and most fun, was performing with Doc Severinsen at the Marcus Center in Milwaukee and at Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis. As I mentioned a while back, I am a member of Twin Cities Bronze Handbell Ensemble and we have the privilege of sharing the stage with amazing musicians in both cities. Milwaukee was the first weekend of December and Minneapolis was this past weekend. I can't count the number of times I had goosebumps while sitting on stage with the orchestra in front of us and the chorale behind us. It's an experience I'll never forget. This was my third year doing this, but this year was extra special.

Unfortunately, in the middle of all the fun times, I was dealing with my very sick cat, Koshka. I didn't know the extent of the problem until this week. After treating him for liver problems, it turned out he had a tumor in his abdomen. Being 15 years old and already having lived a wonderful life, I made the decision earlier in the week that I would have him put to sleep today. It was hard, but it was the best thing for him and for me. There is/was a picture of him somewhere here on TVCH enjoying my CozyChic robe before I even got it out of the box. This is the first time I've actually been able to write about this and not start crying, so I think I made the right decision.

I have tried to keep up here, but have not done a very good job of it. Hoping to get back into the swing of things here shortly. I appreciate reading about everything you all have to say. Wishing everyone a joyous holiday season!

((( Pajomu ))) my deepest sympathies in your loss of Koshka. I know what you are going through and he was so lucky to have you.

Your performance with Doc Severinsen sounds absolutely wonderful - what a great holiday memory. Wishing you all the best during the holidays.

{{{Pajomu}}} I am so sorry to hear your Koshka had been sick, and that you had to make that hard decision today...but it sounds like it was the right and loving decision. It sounds like he had a most wonderful, long, blissful life with you. I hope all those great memories you have of him continue to comfort you and bring more smiles as each day passes!

I was just thinking about your Doc show the other day. How did it go? It must be so thrilling to be included in such a magical performance year after year. You must have been on a high for days, if not continuing for weeks!

Bonza - roasted chestnuts sound soo delicious right now!

Pajomu, I send you the biggest hug and kiss! I know what it is like to lose a kitty. My thoughts are with you!

Joely~ If you feel like driving to the City of Orange...my cat specialist is the bomb! My cat Nutty went from 13 pounds to 6 and my regular vet just keep giving him fluids and meds. He needed so much more! I went to Dr. Elaine Wexler-Mitchell and she saved my kitty's life. The other Dr. was giving my kitty meds that for his condition was actually working against his immune system! It has been 3 years and he is perfect! I continue to drive down there for all my kitties. Be sure at least, that you go to a cat specialist vet because it really makes all the difference! Maybe you can call her and ask her if she can recommend a cat specialist near you. She also does phone consults. She will tell you if you Dr. is doing the right thing. Here is her website. http://www.catcare.com/index.html I will send positve energy your way for Sammy!

My wish to all for a Merry Christmas! I love all of your pictures! They make me feel warm and tingly! Sounds like everyone is in a frenzy to get things done!

I am the most disorganized I have ever been! I have so many things going on at once! I am cooking far too much food as usual! Having an Italian Christamas this year. Chestnut stuffing, cannoli etc...

I just found my mascara I had bought 3 days ago and have been looking for everywhere! One place I did not think to look....? The refrigerator of course! Yep..that's me! Just glad my DH didn't try to eat it! Don't laugh...some of you have heard the stories of what he has managed to make munchies out of!

LOL, Since! I think you should blame the disorganization on the person who tried to give you a torch!!

Joely, I hope you kitty improves and stablizes.

Pajomu, I'm so sorry for that loss!!

Did you know Tess and her husband are handbellers? In Minn?

Cannoli - I swear Since said CANNOLI..... I want Santa to give me some cannolis NOW!!!!!! All I can think of is CANNOLIS!!!!! YUMMMMY!!!!!!!! Quick! Bonza! Make a cannoli bubble!!

{{{{{{Pajomu}}}}}}}} I got a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes just reading about what you had to decide with your dear Koska. It's the most difficult decision we have to make for our beloved furbabies. Even though we know we did the right thing, we just MISS THEM so much!! Here's to all the happy years you had together!

Big hugs to all of you this weekend!!

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;



The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;



The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;



" ... Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night."


Happy Holidays, everyone!
It's an honor to be your host and have so much fun here!

The Cozy Chic gifts were all a huge hit! Mom loved her hoodie, Nephew loved his (see Marketplace for a couple of pix), and SIL couldn't stop talking about how soft the baby blanket was for her baby to be! THANKS, Joely!! Both the hoodies for mom and nephew fit perfectly -- and SIL said the aqua ice hoodie would be perfect for his next set of
"professional" pictures! :-)

I also found a silver sage for DS online -- he'll only be able to wear it this year, I'm afraid, but he loves it just the same. :-)

Bonza - I love Bonza boy's Christmas bedtime story! I got a kick out the size of the mouse he is dreaming about. rofl

it is an honor to have you as our host - you are the host(ess) with the most(est)!

Joely - thinking about you and Sammy today. Hope things are going well.

I hope the boys are getting a chance to try out their new snazzy bikes today - or is it raining?
