in anny way we choose.

My Costco has both wine and whiskey advent calendars. My kitty has his own advent calendar from Trader Joe's. I will not be getting into that one!

and the replies are the best things I have seen, heard or read about all day. It has heightened my mood so much that I am now going to sign out, finish eating all the chocolate fudge my friend brought over, wash it down with the last of my Desaronno and go to bed with a smile on my face. Thank you all for the laughs!
