WELL WE'RE HALF WAY THROUGH NOVEMBER FRIENDS SO I HAD A THOUGHT YESTERDAY .
 
TO START ON MY SIDEBAR FOR CHRISTMAS TO MAKE IT BRIGHT AND GAY..
 
I CARN'T PUT THE MONTH OF DECEMBER IN YET BUT I FELT IF I DID A SPREAD.
 
OF A FEW NICE CHRISTMAS GRAPHICS HERE I MIGHT GET INTO MY HEAD.
 
IT'S GETTING CLOSER EACH WEEK FRIENDS AND  I CARN'T GET INTO THE SWING.
 
OTHER YEARS AT THIS TIME I'VE FINISHED  WITH EVERYTHING..
 
I KNOW SOME START TOO EARLY WITH CHRISTMAS DECOR AND OTHER THINGS.
 
BUT WHEN I READ 40 DAYS TO CHRISTMAS PANICK FOR  ME SET IN.
 
I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE IT  ALL TOO LATE AS THEN IT WILL  BE ALL RUSH.
 
SO MAKING A START ON MY JOURNAL I THOUGHT MIGHT JUST GIVE ME A PUSH.
 
THERES  ALL THE SHOPPING FOR FOOD AND  NEW CLOTHES AND  PREZZIES  IT MAKES ME FROWN.
 
FOLKS RUSHING HERE AND THERE LIKE MADMEN WHEN YOU GO INTO TOWN..
 
SO WHEN I'D DONE MY SIDEBAR I WAS FEELING MORE IN THE SPIRIT.
 
SO I 'M GOING TO TOWN WITH MY WHEELBARROW NOW AND I'M HOPING I'M GOING TO FILL IT. HE-HE.
 
IV'E MADE  A LIST OF ALL THE FOOD  THAT FRIENDS AND FAMILY LIKE.
 
I'M A BIT DISSAPOINTED I HAVE A PUNCURE THOUGH ON MY UNICYCLE BIKE.
 
                                       
                       
SO I CARN'T RIDE DOWN TOWN AND PARK UP TODAY IT'S REALY BUGGING ME.
 
NOT TO WORRY IF I CARN'T SAVE MY LEGS I'LL  SAVE ON  MY ARMS A BIT YOU'LL SEE.
 
I WAS GOING TO BUY  A MOBILITY SCOOTER BUT I CARN'T FIND A MODEL THEY  SELL..
 
WITH A STEERING WHEEL ON WHICH I'D HAVE LIKED SO THATS OUT NOW AS WELL.   HE-HE.
 
WELL I'VE   SETTLING FOR MY  WHEELBARROW AT LEAST MY ARMS WON'T ACHE.
 
IT'S VERY LIGHTWEIGHT AND JUST THE JOB FOR TRANSPORTING THINGS HOME TO TAKE.
 
BUT I BET I HAVE A BIT OF A DO  WITH THE CASHIERS  WHEN  I GO ROUND .
 
I'LL TELL THEM IT DOESN'T TAKE ANY MORE SPACE THAN A MOBILITY SCOOTER  I'VE FOUND.. HE-HE
 
AND I'M ALSO THINKING TO TRIM IT  UP TOO WITH A BIT OF CHRISTMAS CHEER.
 
IT WILL CARRY A FEW LARGE BOTTLES OF WINE AND ALSO A FEW CANS OF BEER.
 
MAYBE A BOW ON THE HANDLES OR A NICE  BIG SHINY BRASS BELL.
 
WELL I LIKE TO FEEL IN THE SPIRIT AT CHRISTMAS AND OTHER TIMES AS WELL.
 
CAN YOU ALL SEE ME DRESSED IN MY SANTA HAT MARCHING BY THE SEA ON THE PROM.
 
MY BELLS RINGING  ON MY WHEELBARROW THEY'LL WONDER WHAT PLANET I'M FROM.
 
                                         HE-HE.
 
OH! LET THEM THINK  WHAT THEY WANT MY FRIENDS IT'S BETTER THAN  BROKEN ARMS.
 
FROM CARRYING ALL THOSE HEAVY  BAGS  AND MY TURKEY TOO FROM THE FARM.
 
OH! YES IV'E TO CALL AT THE FARM AS WELL CHRISTMAS IS NOW IN MY BONES.
 
I HOPE MY WHEELBARROW TYRE DON'T PUNCTURE LIKE MY UNICYCLE HAS BACK HOME..
 
IF IT DOES I'LL CALL AT THE GARAGE AND ASK THE GUY THERE  POLITE .
 
WILL YOU BLOW MY  WHEELBARROW TYRE UP PLEASE I BET HE THINKS WHAT A SIGHT .. 
 
HE-HE.
 
I NEED IT IN PERFECT CONDITION I'LL SAY BECAUSE WHEN  I LEAVE HERE NOW.
 
IT'S GOING TO BE CARRYING A LOT OF WEIGHT AS I'VE YET TO BUY HALF A COW.     HE-HE
 
WHEN I GET THERE I'M HOPING THERE PARKING SPACE STILL HAS A WHEELBARROW RAMP.
 
WHOOPS !!!!  IT SAYS CARTS ONLY  I HOPE I  DON'T GET CLAMPED.  HE-HE
 
YOU SEE ROAST BEEFS A FAVOURITE OF OURS  AND AT CHRISTMAS WHEN OUR FRIENDS.
 
CALL IN AND ALL THE RELATIONS ARE HERE THE EATING OF BEEF NEVER ENDS.
 
THEY WANT BEEF FOR DINNER BEEF IN SARNIES AND  BEEF SLICES ON THE BUFFET.
 
SO I NEED HALF A COW AT LEAST MY FRIENDS FOR CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEARS DAY.
 
IT ALSO WORKS OUT MUCH CHEAPER BUT THE PROBLEM  IS CARRYING IT HOME.
 
SO INSTEAD OF THROWING IT OVER  MY SHOULDER  IT WILL SIT IN MY BARROW NO MOANS.  HE-HE
 
FROM THERE I'LL BE ON TO THE GARDEN SHOP FOR A FIR TREE TO POP ON TOP.
 
THERE VERY HANDY ARE WHEELBARROWS WHEN YOU WANT A VERY LARGE SHOP.
 
I WENT IN MY BEST GREEN WELLIES  COS IT LOOKED A BIT BLACK DID THE SKY..
 
WELL AT LAST I'VE LANDED BACK SAFE  NOW FOLKS IT FEELS GOOD TO BE HOME AND DRY.  
 
VEGETABLES BEER WINE AND TURKEY PLANTS HALF A COW AND MY TREE.
 
I TOLD YOU MY WHEELBARROWS HANDY AND IT'S TRIMMED UP WITH  BELLS TOO    HE-HE !!!
 
ARE YOU IN THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT YET ? IF NOT DO THE SAME AS ME.
 
COME ON AND TRIM YOUR SIDEBAR UP NOW FOR ALL  J/LAND TO SEE.
 
THEN GET YOUR SHOPPERS OUT MY FRIENDS  AND TRIM THEM ALL UP TOO.
 
YOU HAVE GOT TO HAVE FUN  AT CHRISTMAS AND BE JOLLY NOT FEELING BLUE.
 
I KNOW YOU THINK I'M A NUTTER BUT IT'S BETTER THAN BEING A BORE..............
 
OH! AND I BOUGHT A NEW SHINY CLEAVER TO DO  MY  COW CHOPPING CHORE.
 
WELL I'M OFF TO PUT MY WHEELBARROW AWAY NOW AND CHOP UP THE COW IF IV'E TIME .
 
I HOPE MOTHERHENS MADE YOU CHUCKLE AGAIN  HERE IN  "MY SIMPLE RHYME"
 
 
                                                       
                                            
       THIS WHEELBARROW WEIGHS A TON LOL!!
                                                               
                               HE-HE !!!!
            WATCH THIS SPACE!!
 
 
  " IT'S PREZZY AND CHRISTMAS OUTFIT SHOPPING NEXT "

Good Morning Kath....what are you like?
I was going to use Christmas Tags, but thought a 'bit early'....but it does cheer things up a little.
Another great Entry from you!
Thanks for your 'visit'

You are off to a good start with the Chritmas spirit in tow.  Yes, you gave me a chuckle this morning for sure.  I'm gathering so many gifts and treasures that I'm running out of space to store them already.  I'll be moaning a bit when I start wrapping them and then there are some that have to be shipped also.  Have a great day and I'm so glad you are feeling better.  'On Ya' - ma

How festive your journal is...perhaps it will raise my interest in the season now. I am just not feeling it, yet anyway.  Hopefully once Thanksgiving is over and the carols begin to play I will get into the mood.  What a fun read today.

What a great entry will try to cheer up my side bar if I can find some Christmas graphics. Have been doing a bit of Christmas food shopping these last few weeks as M&S have had some great half price deals on so I have saved a fortune. Well maybe not a fortune.   Love Joan.

Kath, you just make me laugh so much.  I love the idea of a decorated wheelbarrow.  I can see you doing it also.  I think it's a great idea.  Love all your decorations on your sidebar.  I still have the fall stuff until Thanksgiving but I do have my livingroom decorated with snowmen.  (LOL...I must admit, I didn't put them all away last year.  We also have a den so we never use the livingroom.  I as shocked to see Christmas things still in there the other day.)  Have a good weekend.  I'm not thinking about Christmas today or I'll panic.  Love xx Chris
