Square Dog Friday... trying to get the Christmas decorations finished.


I had several Creches, Angels and Churches that were destroyed (along with my home) 
in the Laguna Beach Wildfire. A few made it through the fire. We dug them out from the rubble
and grit. One of my favorite is a small Mary with Baby and three Angels.

 It is so small and beautiful you can hold it in your hand and be amazed.
Glazed with blue and grey with very simple shapes I have had this one for about 40 + years.
They now sit in my entry way along with another that somehow made it through the fire.
.








This is one treasure that means Christmas for me.

.
Along with some sweethearts !
My Wild Douglas Fir is so beautiful that I only put a few super tiny white lights on it.
That is all the tree and I need.

iwinston see and hear the cattie
....

As always here is your pretty for the weekend...
.
 Worried gud dugs before the decorating.


Japanese Son has played Santa for many years. He first started at a Mall 
and they loved him as he spoke Japanese and English !
He now is Santa for the Kindergarten that is connected
to the University he teaches at.
The new Principle for the Kindergarten had never seen him as Santa.
Son is head of the International Studies and deals with University students.
 He was so surprised as all the little one were, that Santa only spoke English till the 
very end when he spoke Japanese. I love him he is a hoot !

      What's the story about the green rock in the middle? Is that jade? Sculpted or natural form?

    Before you find a platform or broker and start putting money in the market, put your eyes on a book about the stock market. Get a basic comprehension of what it is and how it works. satta king

    As an article marketer, some articles are going to do well satta king
    while others sit around collecting dust. Find people to read and judge your articles before you decide to release them. This will help you avoid those dust-collectors.

    To combat it, remember the phrase 20-20-20. This means Every twenty minutes give your eyes a break by looking into the distance twenty feet away, for twenty seconds. It will refresh your eyes and prevent eye strain.

    Find a source of high-quality leads, and use them in addition to other methods until you get your business off the ground. Once you have enough leads coming in from other directions, you can stop using a pay-per-lead service.

    People will then just be interested in winning something from you. A contest once a year or so is a good idea to get your name out there, but that's it.
