Christmas 2005
An Edit below in Pink
Can you believe we are entering the last phase of this year, 2005?
Today is the first day of the rest of our lives,possibly trite but always true.
God Bless Us Everyone!
We have lost a few, won a few and we continue trucking along and hopefully remembering those who need remembering.
We have begun our Christmas celebration. Our Christmas events will include, good food, good movies, good visits with family and friends. We will fill the coffers of the money grubbers as little as possible, sending what we can afford, instead, to the Katrina fund. I hope everyone reading will include those who have lost so much in your Christmas list of giving.
Gifts for everyone reading
and don’t wait till Christmas to open. One gift given in the true spirit of Christmas . I have tried all the links. If they don’t work we may be using up their bandwidth so try them again. I may have given some of these gifts in the past but quality is quality and worth giving more than a single time.for each of the 12 days of Christmas
The Christmas Story, the greatest story ever told. Click here.
Keeping Christ in Christmas, the most beautiful page I have discovered on the net. “Did She Know” a Shockwave flash page, Kenny Rodgers duet and the combination of the music and the page is, overwhelming. Spend the time to allow it to load, you won’t be sorry.
A reminder of Home, Remember our Servicemen
Shockwave flash.
A favorite and really nice Christmas Story with dialogue, “A Cup Of Christmas Tea“.
Fine and I do mean fine Christmas midi files from Brother Charlie’s a Carmelite Monk. I am always pleased with what is on his Christmas midi file pages.
December, a poem by John Clare. Didn’t get enough of John Clare, click here. Christmas Poetry, lots, click here
Santa Claus send a letter to Santa right here or, do it here.
A Favorite of mine, Wintertime Snow Globe be sure to shake it with your mouse. I play with this page all year long.
The A B C’s of CHRISTMAS click here
Free Christmas Screensavers, a large selection click here
Koala’s, very well done and comprehensive pages. A joy to visit and whatever you want or want to know about Christmas from customs and traditions to recipes for Christmas, is here.
Glory to Him, last but not lease, a Christmas poem by yours truly, LittleEgypt, written in 2003
A couple of notes:
Three of Terry’s sites are now lifetime paid in full. MoreThanJustCrabs was paid for by a friend who prefers to remain anonymous and I paid for the two I wanted to remain ad free, The Clowne from Clown and LordPineapple. They all have memorials posted on them.
I am trying to keep up my photo site. If you care to view go to PhotoGraphics.
An EDIT: I don’t do well with games but I have been tagged to play by a Xangan I like very much, jeepind so, I’ll play.
1- I am to list 5 weird things about myself and if you knew me you would know I’m not weird, I’m just differant, all the time. My serious side wants to come out in this game but as it’s Christmas, I’ll think of 5 really strange things.
a- I could eat Cincinnati Chili every day of the week. I love Skyline, Frishes, Bob Evans, and quite a few other Chili’s from our area. I prefer it without beans but with cheese and fresh chopped onion, no spegetti.
b- I am an unlucky person, never having won anything, only earned rewards thru work or study. I have never received anything of value for nothing discounting family gifts.
c- I am overweight but a picky eater. I don’t care a lot for most desserts or ice creams and I don’t eat things of any kind that I don’t like. I am a fair cook, could have been a very good cook, was raised around a grandmother who was a fine cook so know what good food tastes like. That may be why I am picky. My feelings, Most prepared for you foods need a lot of doctoring to be worth the eating.
d- I wear open toed thongs, flip-flops all year round and am happy doing it until someone seems to think they should study the situation they think is really weird. I doubt I’ll ever get an invitation to the White House. If I do, I am positive my dress code may not be in keeping with theirs. I’m a very comfortable person and like it that way.
e- I think it’s great there are exciting risk takers in the world that can show me how much possibly un-enviable common sense I have. I would love to win a million dollars but would never do 99 percent of what contenders do, on the TV shows, to win the money.
The Rules of this game: 1-List on your site 5 weird or strange things about yourself. 2-List 5 Xangans to do the same. 3-List the rules of the game on your site so those you have tagged can read them. 4-Go to the sites of the 5 you have tagged to let them know they have been tagged. So many of you have been tagged before, forgive please my tagging anyone to play. As I said, I don’t do this kind of thing well. flaminredhead, knightingale, MyKi_Whatzerface, The_Queen_Of_Swords , Tooty I have picked all of the above as they are sweet people who may not mind my intrusion in their lives, yet I know how busy each of them is.
Keeping Christ in Christmas and sending much affection your way during this glorious season,
LittleEgypt aka Becca

Thank you Becca…a wonderful Christmas pressent to us
Whee, presents! : )
Thank you!
I LOVED the snow globe one – I am going to try to send the link to my brother and my daughter.
I’d love to meet you and give you a hug… Then go. To meet a beautiful person like you and absorb the colors of life you posess would be awesome. Is that selfish?
Special stuff! I’ll be visiting them.
Glad to hear Terry’s sites will remain. I have never beeen able to bring myself to delete his names from my subs…now I have no need. Thanks!
We get the best of both worlds here, we celebrate Christmas, and Yule, sometimes we throw in a little Hanakah for my neices, and some Kwanzaa for my “other daughter”…it’s a nice time of year.
Thank you what a great gesture! His poems will go on!
Those are all wonderful links. I’ll definitely have to go back to them and read while I sit in my pajamas with a cup of coffee.
God Bless You. You’re a gift to us all.
Whew….lots of fun stuff to check out!!
But for now you’ve been tagged by me……you’re supposed to go to my site to get instructions…….
Hope to be SEEING you soon!! Donna
Nope – I can’t believe December is here already.
I wish I could frame this page and hang it here!!! Good for you, Becca, for preserving Terry’s work! I feel Terry was hoping for posterity so that he would not be forgotten. In making his sites permanent, you have accomplished this.
I will read the links and I wonder if you could tell me if you and John have bought the DVD, “The March of the Penquins”. I would like to know if it is worth the price.
Have a wonderful light-hearted December!
My best Christmas present is your friendship — every year that’s my best present. Feel free to come over to my place and add your three cents to a “debate” that should not even be a debate. Feel free to do that thing I like: write and write and write and rant and rant and rant and rant. Nobody does it better than you.
i love the song… i’ve always loved it… “Mary”…
beautiful
thank you, Becca, for being such a wonderful person and lovely soul…

5 weird things… oh my, there are so many many weird things about me… (but most fall under the Too Much Information heading)
I’ll keep it in mind. But I have been tagged repeatedly to do this and each time I tell people the same thing– that I will try but that I may never get around to it… but really, Becca , for you, I will really really try to comply — but just no promises.
No need to apologize! I love being included in things, I suppose it may seem a bother to some, but not to me, as a matter of fact, Thank you for thinking of me.
My responses are now up at my site, along with me taggee’s.
