Dream a Little Dream

By jesser | Published: 3:38 pm

Just the thought of this scenario makes me almost giddy with glee … and yet, the fact that I started this post [...]

Christmas in the Aire

By jesser | Published: 8:48 am

I don't want any crap about how it's too early for Christmas music. Honestly, if it were a normal year, I might agree with you. But it isn't. It is the first year Tabby is old enough to really GET Christmas and (more importantly, in my book) sing Christmas carols! Wheee!! Tabby loves to sing [...]
