    It is a night for all forms of critters wandering this evening, so far have watched two mountain lions out for their evening strolls, there have been a couple of skunks, coyotes, and other ones that aren’t too clear yet 🙂

    JK, feel obligated to post to you and Joan in French as per your inner native country. And must post to KZ in American (whatever this means as “color” instead of “colour”.) LOL. OK, I’m over that not so bright idea now!
    MS, love your pics as Festivus contributions – “study groop” – right – as in studying how much alcohol one can imbibe before passing out or making total fool of oneself. Of course never been there, never done that. OK, purrhaps once …
    We got snow today, real white fluffy stuff, but now it’s turned to rain so might not last til the 25th. And now getting slushy, note to self to stay well away from curb so as to avoid cars/drivers that tend to get their jollies splashing pedestrians as myself.

    Good Morning JK & KJ – It’s another grey and mild day here too, with off and on rain. There’s a rumor going around that we may see the sun on Thursday.
    Fun at the office, yay JK! Not sure what a real office party is like, it’s been years.
    Oh my, French lessons – better late than never!
    Came across a recording of Cantique de Noel, performed in 1974 at my hometown high school – gave me chills. Each year, a senior girl and boy would perform solos and the choir & chorus would join in. And each year, alumn were invited on stage to sing this song. Each year, the stage was packed! For over 40 years, this high school concert closer was tradition. Mr. William Cromie was the director of the choir, chorus, as well as the performing arts department and was a co-band director. He was larger than life, a true legend. At the conclusion of this song, Mr. Cromie, wearing his traditional concert tux and tails, would do an about face and say “Merry Christmas!” to the audience. I hear his words every time I hear this song.

    Oh, always liked that carol Joan – first time heard it was sung by Joan Baez on Noel LP…
    Our office party is VERY low key – lasts about 2 hours than back to work – Yay 😉
    Here is famous crooked bottle brush tree – now with gifts/Santa has arrived!
    office tree with gifts
    Always a fun share with silly surprise exchange!
    (Wonder if retro tree exists anywhere else besides someone’s attic or basement stash/LOL!)

    Thanks for sharing such a lovely vivid memory Joan! I love inclusive performances. I used to go to jazz dance workshops, 3 weeks each summer. Huge group of dancers from all over the world, professionals as well as “the rest of us”, plus renowned teachers whom “the rest of us” would not generally get to take class with. Each group did a performance and finale was an all-out work for everyone. Of course the pros did the solos but all of us got to be on stage if only to run across waving streamers. Such generosity on the part of choreographer, who just passed away last year, in her late eighties and still teaching!

    We never did a party in my “that place” either, although come to think of it there was some sort of nighttime thing at a hotel, pricey and for me not all that fun so skipped it.
    The tree is slightly left-leaning, representative of workplace politics? Then again all my Hanukkah candles have been left-leaning this year. LOL. Might see if I can post a pic tomorrow with all 8 of them lit as last night.
    Hey JK, you may very well get the winning lotto ticket in gift exchange! 😉
    BTW I could use a nice big café like the one that girl has “perched” on her shoulders! It’s on my “to-do” list for today!

    Oops, pic was posted in error/LOL…but cuppa café on way to you thru wormhole!

    Looks as if kits are setting up another kitsmas tree in adjacent TDK Hall:

    Wonder if Miss Leela & Comet were part of the fun today!
