Merry Grinchmas! π
And this is to the ones of you that don't enjoy Christmas. My little Caragh sends you a big "I feel you" hug β€οΈ
Remember, New Year is just around the corner! Stay strong!
Feeling very grinchy tonight. My neighbor has been blaring their music ALL night and is RUINING #jolabokaflod.
It‘s not even Christmas music. It‘s like hotel cocktail lounge Muzak that was never intended to be played at full volume and makes me feel like I should be eating canapés in a puffy-sleeved LBD. ?
Started my day with the Grinch and coffee and have transitioned to the Grinch and wine! Merry Christmas Eve! #holidayfriends @Andrew65 @TheBookHippie
Snuggled up with April and watching the cartoon How the Grinch Stole Christmas. The college I work at decided to close tomorrow because of the storm (it‘s definitely snowing!), so my winter break begins a day early! An extra day to sleep, snuggle, and read sounds like a good gift to me π€ πββ¬ π

1. As a child we always went to see my Great Grandmother in late afternoon and Santa always came when we were gone. We always got new PJ‘s that we could open right away and then we had to wait until after dinner to open the rest. Now as an adult we all spend time at my sister‘s/Mom‘s and play games and the grandkids open gifts.
2. Meal changes all the time..this year it‘s lasagna on Christmas Eve and turkey dinner on Christmas Day!
1. My immediate family (bro‘s fam, parents, man cub and me) do our Christmas stuff. We‘ve done that since I was young because we usually had to travel to my grandparent‘s house across state and instead of bringing all the gifts there and then back we just did stuff before we left (mom usually had to work at least part of the day if it fell during the work week).

Finished my first holiday diamond painting!
βWhich was something the Grinch couldn‘t stand in the least!β
My all time favorite Dr. Suess book. I love the overall message in the book! It makes it great for kids and is a classic traditional story!
I loved Dr. Seuss when I was little, and this time of year I love all things Grinch! π

I'm watching one of my absolute favorite Christmas movies today. Jim Carrey is my favorite Grinch.
#WinterReadathon
Started decorating the house for Christmas today so I thought it was appropriate to watch this tonight!
#FestivePhotoChallenge Day 15: Festive Read. My two year old is SUPER into the Grinch, and we have pretty much read this to him every night for a month. Today, he plunked down in front of the tree and read the whole book to me!! I wish I could post a video to Litsy because it was the CUTEST. #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs #selfiescavengerhunt #readingbyglowofChristmaslights
Just now getting to watching this newer version of our team movie. Very cute!

The snow was gently falling this morning so I thought I would watch the original!!

βAnd they'll feast, feast, feast, feast. They'll eat their Who-Pudding and rare Who-Roast Beast.β

This #ornamenthunt challenge has made me realize that I do NOT have any ornaments featuring books! This will have to be rectified immediately! But for now, here is my beloved literary character The Grinch!! #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs #bookish
I've watched this on Christmas Eve for years! #holidaytradition @StayCurious #teamgamesleighers
I love this movie!

I‘m lucking out on hotel tv today. π€©π#WinterGames2021 #TeamGameSleighers @StayCurious
Been watching A LOT of Christmas movies and shows over the last few days. Here‘s three! #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs
So, when I think of Neighbors decore, sometimes you have annoying ones, Like in The movie Christmas Vacation, or the Grinch who removes all decor from his Neighbors, or the house on the bottom, that really exists, from one of my photos and you wonder π€ Day 23 Neighbors Decor, #WinterGames2021 #FestivePhotoChalange #TeamGameSleighers @StayCurious
1. Just some peace & quiet & reading time. It‘s been too hectic.
2. No. We‘re driving to our holiday destination and snow would make it an enormous hassle. It can snow when we get back.

This was NOT my week. But that‘s okay, I‘m headed into Christmas break so the next two I‘m determined to SLEIGH! π€£π

This was a hard book to rate. I didn‘t even know about this before I joined Litsy and Dr Seuss is not a know author in Norway either.
So reading this for the first time as a adult and never having watched the movie either, is probably not the best of ideas
12th book for #DashingDecember

Some recent holiday kids books. The one on the bottom right has 18 short stories. I found 566 words for the word search.
Total is 6361pts for #mistletoemaniacs #wintergames2021

Unexpectedly busy weekend here, as I got a last-minute gig to cover a timpanist who has pneumonia. Added to the regular holiday fatigue, I‘ve been wiped out all weekend!
I hadn‘t read this since childhood, though we watch the Boris Karloff-narrated special every year. Gotta say I like the tv version better, though the book is very good. βYou‘re a Mean One, Mr. Grinchβ really makes a difference!
Anybody know of any other Christmas books that are not romance-centric? Or even no romance at all?
The interesting history behind the TV special of the same name. #mistletoemaniacs #wintergames2021 +6pts
I haven't read this in years. As a kid, I never questioned how the Grinch stole shoving everything up a chimney that he barely fit down or how the dog managed to pull a sleigh with everyone's Christmas up a rather tall mountain. I still love it though. #wintergames2021 #teamgamesleighers #bfc21 #wintercosy #averymerryreadathon #dashingdecember #averymerrybingo #christmasmyway #blackwellsbookshelfreadathon
I haven‘t seen The Grinch with Benedict Cumberbatch yet, so watching it with my best girl. #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs #holidaymovie
25 points holiday movie

#wintergames2021
One of my favorite Christmas movies
i love the costumes and the detail to everything in the movie.
Jim Carrey did a great grinch
One of our family favorites! The bonus is that it is #TeamMistletoeManiacs team movie! Although it doesn‘t look very wintery outside, we are getting into the Christmas spirit around hereππ πΌ
Today I watched The Holiday (a personal fave), Santa Claus Is Coming To Town, and How the Grinch Stole Christmas (our team movie). Got 3 more bingos!

I was really worried about the points this week because I knew I wasn‘t gonna be able to read much. But I grabbed an impulse read that sounded fun and made 13,360 points in the word search. To that I added 1160 points from the holiday game, 10 points for the impulse read, 25 points for the holiday read, 25 points for the team movie, and 400 points four hours read times challenges read for.#MistletoeManiacs #WinterGames
An annual re-read! I missed it on TV this year, I think. And the TV special from the β60s is best but the book is good too.

Didn‘t get photos of the packages but both #LittleChristmasSwap and #JolabokaflodSwap went out today!
