These guys recently got a new home.
The two events were unrelated.
But...
May all your holiday celebrations be as joyful.

Christmas Plagiarism With(out) Permission and With(out) Remorse
"I'm lying here* on the couch listening to the dryer and the dishwasher. Those are good sounds." This will happen on Saturday. Though I AM lying on the couch as you read this.
"I've shopped 'til I have no more legs." Internet. Raw fingertips. My legs are fine. "I've wrapped the presents." Check. "I've trimmed the tree." Soon, my friend. Soon. It's standing in the living room with the ladder at its side. Baby steps. "I've hung the stockings." That would be Saturday. "I've washed the sheets and made up the beds." Okay, I washed the sheets. Geez.
"I'm pretty sure the dishes will waltz out of the dishwasher (white dishes can't dance) into the cupboards and the clothes will fold themselves and march up the stairs to the closet soon." There's just the small matter of the load that's been in the washer for a week. Rewash (again) with Tide and vinegar to remove the mildewy smell? I'll get back to you on that.
"And then the bathrooms will clean themselves and the dusting will somehow get done." If I don't wear my glasses, my house doesn't have dust. "For now I don't really care." "No truer words from tongue or pen..."
"BECAUSE INLESS THAN TWO," FIVE "DAYS MY KIDS START COMING HOME FOR CHRISTMAS!"
"Australia " Italy "was fun and it was exciting to be there" [with my best guy], "but nothing beats" THIS, "this feeling" [is oh, so hard to beat!]
"Eight" Four "will have to be enough this year because Loren is on his mission. He'll call and talk to all of us on the Big Day. Besides, he doesn't have a spouse yet so even if he was only away at college, he might not even be invited because the name of the game this year is couples. "Abby and Jeff, Max and Perry are in Pennsylvania. :(
"Greg and Shawn
Tanner and Autumn
Jamie and Kevin
Duncan and Liz"
Fred and Nicea
Annie
Amanda
"Games, movies, presents, decorations,2.99ers" (maybe In 'n Out?), "caramel popcorn" (possibly), "buttermilk pancakes" (or a reasonable facsimile), "caroling" (uh... us? Not so much), "some spiritual stuff...and the list goes on."
"Nope, it DOES NOT get better than this. Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope."
