On ornaments
I do love it when people come through with great haiku like they did last Friday. I mean, look at this-- we had CraigA do several verses on the subject of Boston sports without one F-bomb (and three faith references)!
Hallmark Bobby Orr
And Teddy Ball Game at bat;
Hub Saints deck the tree!
Red Sox ornaments
Of every stripe hang in glory;
Celebrate four crowns!
Brady, the NFL GOAT,
Super Bowls my father saw not.
Prayers answered, Lord!
There is one Lord God.
Yet, lords and gods of Boston
Saved New England’s faith(ful)!
Meanwhile, IPLawGuy pretty much laid out his very interesting ornament history:And Teddy Ball Game at bat;
Hub Saints deck the tree!
Red Sox ornaments
Of every stripe hang in glory;
Celebrate four crowns!
Brady, the NFL GOAT,
Super Bowls my father saw not.
Prayers answered, Lord!
There is one Lord God.
Yet, lords and gods of Boston
Saved New England’s faith(ful)!
A Christmas Camel
More Like Christmas Jellyfish
Cute either way
Single, young and broke
Got baubles from hippie Aunts,
leftovers from work
Creepy Chinese dude
Angels with Beer mugs (trade group)
fishes, crabs, random stuff
Each one still on tree
Also glue-glitter orbs with
Libby, Miri, Max
Micah's was memorable:
Brother at age six
Crafted homemade ornaments
Paperclips and crayon
The best of them all:
Seven happy cockroaches
Pulling Santa's sleigh
Megan Willome brought the regional color:
moved in right before
Christmas, first ornament a
cowboy Santa ball.
Jill brought it back to moms:
Tiny Yogi and
Boo-Boo from Moma. Cherished
more and more each year.
While Christine brought it back to my mom (apparently, some people have a separate "Phyllis tree":
We have a small tree
with only ornaments made
by your Mom, treasures...
And, WHAT!?!?!?
CTL is getting married?
First gift from new girl
Was a snowman ornament.
The wedding's next month.

Mark, good observation. Hard to talk Boston sports without F-bombs. Trying to keep it in the Christmas spirit … just like your Don Cherry influenced “Fear the Bear” video. Peace on Earth, Goodwill to all men … even Redwings!
