  • Beagle up at 5:30; held her off until 6:00
  • Couldn't fall back asleep
  • Prepped the brisket for tomorrow
  • Day 8 of my sinus infection
  • Christmas is going to be a very quiet affair at our house - Just us, Beagle, and Parlor Panther



Taken zinc or garlic and honey yet?
I'm on a round of Amox-Clav now.

Okay, but fresh garlic hung around the neck is a great folk preventative for virus spreaders.
He's battling a sinus infection not vampires.


Right! Sulphur in the socks, then!

Checking your wife's friends kitty sounds like a recipe for a rough Christmas

I made several pounds of hot nuts using red pepper flakes, cayenne, chipotle, and sambal. It was a nice, albeit temporary relief.

No apex predator creatures or big land mammals showed up at the nativity scene tonight as a Gen Y mom definitely put her foot down. The daughter dutifully portrayed a sheep-a silent one, so we truly had a silent night.

Usse one ghost pepper instead of all that and it will be less temporary.

Vix rub on the soles of your feet will draw out all the clogs in your sinus.

If u want to go the traditional pharmacy route get the good Sudafed they keep behind the counter and use that for 48 hours.

Then go on mucinex for the next 3 days while ur on the augmentin.

It will take care of it and get u feeling better in no time.

Well double rats. As long the traditional ox and ass are present who cares what other animals show up (well maybe a serpent would be inappropriate). A pachyderm would have been awesome!

Christmas Eve service tonight. Hope the elephants show up for the nativity scene. Don't ask.
C'mon, since you brought it up you have to give us the story.


Children involved in Christmas nativity scenes sort of become fixated on their particular costumes. Because we have cooler weather one little person is currently enamored with animal costumes and apparently has several from which to choose. So instead of donkeys or cattle in the stable we could have pachyderms or lions, depending on the mood of the day. And it's not easy for kids ministry staff to find trained, willing replacements. You ain't gonna get a middle school kid to do the nativity scene stuff.
I thought you were going to say you're attached to Prestonwood Baptist over in Plano, they have a huge Christmas celebration with live animals, including camels, in their nativity scene. I was hoping they'd escalated to elephants.

Nah

RTT: Rub on egg across your forehead back and forth for about 10 minutes. Make sure you pray over the egg first. Maximize it's ability to draw in the ojo, ya know. Then just crack it into a glass of water and let it set for a day. Toss and you'll be all better! Family brujeria been keeping us kicking all these years. Or maybe it was the tortillas.

If it is still being persistent, only one thing will kill it for sure. Motrin, water, change of socks, take a knee and set security. Foolproof!

I think some of y'all may have been witch doctors in a previous life.

Most of the Christmas church gigs I do use arrangements from Prestonwood productions. They got that prosperity gospel money to pay the good orchestrators and it makes for fun gigs.

Wel, I am sure we have real asses who show up for Christmas if that helps. They just aren't officially part of the nativity scene.

My freshman year in HS they did a 12 Day of Christmas show, and paid our marching band drum corps to be there for 12 drummers drumming. It paid for my hotel room for a few road trips that year.
