On the 11th Deer of Christmas - Winter White

Well it happened.  It definately Snowed!
I'd say the chances are looking pretty good for a White Christmas, well in Picton anyway...

Just a few kilometres south the grass is green and the sun is shining and I hear up near Belleville, there is just a little dusting on the houses, but here at 65 Mary St. shovels are out and the boots are on!

I'm holding a Munny (by Dunny) perhaps the best toy ever invented for these individualistic times we live in.  Dunny's come completely blank.  They're meant to be decorated however you'd like - a Choose Your Own Adventure of the plastic toy variety.

On the 9th Deer of Christmas - I Feel a Bit Grinchy

Maybe it has something to do with all this green grass.
Maybe its the fact that Jamie barely gets any holiday time off this year.
Maybe because its +6C and theres not a hint of snow in the future.

What are you doing to get into the holiday spirit this year?  I've tried shopping, decorating and listening to Christmas music.  I've even been to Swiss Chalet for a festive special!  This Christmas spirit is a funny thing though, it can't be forced - and I'm sure once I'm at my moms for her Christmas eve fondue with my family and friends, all will be right with the world.

Until then I'll sit back on the grass with my little flocked deer friends waiting for tomorrow to arrive...

The 10th Deer of Christmas - It's the End of the World as We Know It...


So are you a believer?
 This little deer/candelabra will be perfect for lighting the room when the lights go out tonight. I got her from my BFF who owns the incredibly chic Kelly's   at 197 Main St,  Picton, Ontario. Kelly is my wardrobe consultant and breakfast companion and she just produced the most beautiful baby girl in the world.

I haven't stockpiled much, just a few bottles of sparkling wine and some triscuits - but if you get tired of rioting ad you know how to tell a funny joke you are more than welcome to stop by, we can watch the world implode together...

The Eighth Deer of Christmas - There is a Light that Never Goes Out

So this kitchy deer lamp, made of a lawn ornament with a light bulb stuck up its butt, is one of the first deer I ever owned. Hes been around at least a decade, as long as I've owned my house. He's lived in my tenants apartments, hes proudly sat on the table at various craft sales and I'm sure he has inspired copy cats all around the globe.

There is something so cozy about the warm glow he throws. It instantly makes a room feel sleepy and cozy and somewhere you just want to stay home. He has the same effect as this song by Morrissey and The Smiths.

Anyways, I'm hope after all the hustle and bustle of preparing for the holidays is over you get a few minutes of peace and quiet to just be as calm, still and breathe.

On The Seventh Deer Of Chritmas - Jingle Bell Rock!

  
Perhaps the best Christmas song ever written - and we have the Legendary New York Punk scene to thank. Especially, my favorite band of all time The Ramones.

Collecting deer might not seem like the most Punk Rock kind of a hobby - But I rescued these two little beauties dumpster diving at the Picton Dump. You would have dove in as well when you saw their cute little faces smiling up from the muck. I can't believe they both survived completely unscathed.

5 more days - are you ready?

6th Deer of Christmas - Sparkle, Sparkle!

Today is the day! I am finally stringing the lights and hanging the baubles. Its time for things to get a little sparkly around here.

  This silver deer is ready to party and so am I. So crank up the Christmas carols and pass the eggnog!

Here's a little inspiration from You TubeYou The best light shows from the past few years.

On the Fifth Deer of Christmas - A Disney Classic






Who doesn't love Bambi?
And this really is my favorite sweater - it's the comfy thing I change into when I get home from work. In fact I'm wearing it right now.

What amazes me most about the film Bambi are the incredibly dreamy watercolour backgrounds. It also amazes me that these original watercolours and the hand painted cels from 1942 are still intact and even available for purchase! Hint! Hint! any of you wealthy benefactor types.

 Of Course if Bambi isn't your thing...feel free to watch this short film by Marv Newland.
