Star, I'm glad to find you again. You're back on my Blog List.
Lin, Thanks. I admit that I had it wrong for years. The tree will survive Midnight. I'll have to show you picture of it. The goat is not for us — it will be given to a third-world family.
Sharkbytes, Okay . . . So be careful that you don't get Scrooged.
Cai, Thanks heaps. And all the best to you and yours.
Advance Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family Chuck… 🙂

Merry Christmas! The answer to #3 for me would be Scrooge, so you can guess the answers to some of the others. This year, I've hardly noticed it's a holiday. I think I'm getting worse.
Score with the Donder answer! I hate when folks call him "Donner".
Uh, you may be taking the tree down earlier now that you have a kitten. Hee! Hee!
Are you really getting a goat?? A REAL LIVE one? Like Pricilla??! ReallY??!
