1. Tomorrow I'm off to have lunch with some blogging friends. I'll fill you in then. 2. I have to make 72 pizelles today... It seems we are supposed to be thanking our teachers by feeding them and making them fat. I have to deliver them to school tomorrow. At least these cookies are light! 3. I am finishing up my children's Christmas gift shopping today. It's easy when all they want is electronics. I could wait to see if there will be sales, but I just want it done and out of the way -- AND I don't want to worry about not getting exactly what they want... 4. I have to chaperone the Sadie Hawkins dance tomorrow. I'm hoping for lots of blog fodder! 5. I called DirecTV this morning to change the checking account numbers (because my bank got eaten up by another bank) and they told me that their system that does that is unavailable today. I'll have to do that tomorrow. Technology is supposed to make my life easier... why is this so hard?? 6. I am getting ready for the Handbell Festival in a couple of weeks. I have some really super parents helping me this year. One is a Ret. Lt. General. He's into organization. I LOVE this guy!! He's got everything down and will have those kids in line and ready to go! 7. I got a new handbell piece for my kids called Wizards in Winter. It was originally performed by the Trans Siberian Orchestra. Here is the video that inspired the handbell piece: 8. If you want to hear the handbell piece, you can go to Here and click the button. It's awesome! My kids absolutely love it!! 9. It's almost time for the children to come down to breakfast... We are having waffles or french toast. Want some? I've got plenty. 10. LLB's private trumpet lessons are going really well. She is going to be playing a solo at the Winter Concert. 11. Both children got a part in the school play. She's in a commercial. He's the Big Bad Wolf. What does this mean? I have no idea. 12. The play is on the same night at the Jazz Revue. Of course it is. So, we will be running from one performance venue to the next. They don't need to eat, do they? 13. If you want to see my cherubs in the Nutcracker, let me know. I can reserve tickets for you... Links to other Thursday Thirteens! |

Fun video! Youtube always amazes me. Wait, you are finishing Christmas shopping for your kids today? I haven't even started, yikes!
Pizelles! The nice, older Italian lady (hardly speaks English) across the street makes those for us all the time. I LOVE them fresh and warm! ;)

I will tell you the same thing I told Melli....I have alerted the police department and they are going to be watching out for you all!
My T13 is up.
okay-- so LLB plays trumpet?! So did/do I!! What fun! :) If you had mentioned it before I somehow missed it-- but who cares, I now know! SOunds liek you have a crazy couple days coming up. I wish we would get sweets at school. I think HS teachers need goodies so much more than any other grades. LOL!
You can play THAT on handbells??? WOW! That must REALLY be impressive! And fun!
Great TT!! I am so excited to hear about your lunch!! I so enjoyed my visit with Sandy last week.

Have a GREAT day! My TT is up here.
just reading your TT makes me tired! where do you get your energy?!
my first-ever TT is posted here.
I'm here from Wendy's. I'm very impressed that you are doing your Christmas shopping now. I have actually bought one item already and plan to do some more shopping this weekend. I, too, want to get it done early to relieve the stress.
I LOVE the YouTube!!! Someone had a lot of time on their hands. It's cool. I couldn't find the handbell link.
Good luck on all your shopping.
#11 will be interesting to see how that plays out!!
Blessings,
Karla

Hey Babe, Sandy and I and really excited about tomorrow. Hope you know the area well and can suggest a good place to eat. See ya soon!
You sure have a lot on your mind.
Happy TT!
You're life sounds just as crazy and hectic as mine! I'm afraid to look at our calendar for December;-) Thanks for the tip about the handbell piece. Have a great week.
I would love to do that lighting thing with my house...but the neighbor that I most want to annoy lives beside me and his cars would probably block the view of it.
But it would be so cool to have the house light up to some of my favorite Christmas songs.
wait! wait! Number eight! I couldn't find the link to click! TSO really fires me up AND I'm a ringer... what a great combination it could be!

If your bank has just got ingested, you will have time to change the ABA or Acct #, no matter how slow DirecTV is
Oh pizzelles! I make them every Christmas. After I make the batter I always have to sit to make them in the iron since it takes so long. I hope the dance goes great - can't wait to hear about it.
