Comments (7)Hmmm... I just accessed the Geocities rules for displaying my pages: your page may have been suspended for violation of our Terms of Service, if any of the following statements are true: Pulling files from your GeoCities account to a location outside of Yahoo! GeoCities, such as auction sites, message boards, and other web sites. Using GeoCities for the sole purpose of storing files. Nudity/pornography. Registering for multiple accounts. Using GeoCities for commercial purposes. Using GeoCities for hate/defamatory purposes. Using your GeoCities home page to redirect visitors to other sites. Improperly promoting your website via email, message boards, or instant message (i.e., spam). We have been traveling and not able to access the internet much for three years. I used to used GeoCities to post pictures here but I guess the rules have changed. Boy they don't let you do anything! What do you expect for free!?! LOL I am heading out to find a site to store my pics. Linda...See More2008 Winter/Christmas Table Pictures!
Comments (34)yachter - what a beautiful table!! I'm not a blue person but I really like how you put that centerpiece together, those blue trees are great. Love how the snowflakes show up throughout. Mo - your candycane table is beautiful. I'll have to remember that candycane easel idea - how cute is that? I love how you mix and matched the napkins, I've never tried that. dreamgoddess - Oh that table is wonderful, so victorian. Those chagers are just wonderful. Your whole space flows so well. All of your decorations are put togehter beautifully. I'll be adding one of my december tables but I am starting a Part 2 to this thread to keep it easy to access for the dial up folks I hope everyone is ok with that - if not please don't hesitate to report me to Santa for being naughty...LOL Here is a link that might be useful: The Gypsy's Corner...See MoreA Christmas GTKY
Comments (25)1. What are you wearing right now? ~ 26 y/o sweats (I swear) and sandals . . . I need to do some laundry today ;^D 2. What have you eaten today or plan on eating for dinner? ~my breakfast this morning: a thin slice of green chile quiche, half of a small cranberry-orange scone, fresh pineapple, black coffee 3. What was the best monetary gift you've received? Price isn't important. ~ a really great electric foot massager from Sharper Image . . . with all brick floors here, I love that thing!!! 4. What was the oddest gift you've received? ~ the first Christmas after we were married, DH's sister sent us a pair of 18" tall, hand-painted, plaster wall decs that were ( cutesy, UGLY, garish, creepy) chefs, one Italian and one French. OMG, they were seriously hideous! DH & I took one look at them and threw them in the trash can . . . in the garage . . . under a lot of crumpled gift wrap so that we didn't have to look at them ever again. This was 28 years ago but I still shudder every time I think of those creepy things! 5. What is your favorite ornament on the tree? ~ the Fisher-Price animals from the mobile that I used for both my kids. I couldn't bear to throw it away when they got older, so I took it apart, tied ribbons onto each animal and have used use them on our family tree (The Story of Us tree) ever since. They bring back a lot of happy memories. 6. Do you have a special Christmas tradition? ~ Christmas Eve is always just us (as we host a big gathering here on Christmas Day). We have the same special tamales with my homemade red chile sauce dinner, read the Christmas story from the Bible and then open up Christmas presents from friends and grandparents. Afterwards, we walk around our small development of 11 homes, looking at the lit farolitos and Christmas lights. 7. What are your plans for Christmas? ~ Since all of our family lives out-of-state, we host a gathering of close friends here on Christmas Day . . . a very festive sit-down dinner with hilarious games afterwards . . . usually "Apples to Apples" and "Catch Phrase". 8. Who is the hardest person to buy for? ~ DS now that he's in the Army and travels oversees and between posts. Everything needs to be small, lightweight, very usable (as opposed to frivolous) and travel-worthy. 9. Do you prefer "old-fashioned" Christmas cards or a picture card? ~ I like them both . . . and I like them even better when they come with a nice, newsy letter. 10. Have you ever re-gifted? If so, what was it and who was it to? ~ Not that I recall, but I wouldn't be opposed to it if the gift was a nice one . . . unlike those creepy plaster chefs ;^D Lynn...See MoreNew Jacquie Lawson eCard with amaryllis
