Whine, wine, wine.....

Okay, I have been shamed by some of my followers who said they are jonesing for a post. So here we go. It's the day before Christmas Eve and  the Hanukkah season(did I spell that right?) is underway. I'm going to try to catch you up on whats been going down here on the mountain. One day it was Fall and with absolutely no warning the next day it was winter! None of this fading in crap, just boom, Winter.

So I am sitting here with my "inexpensive" as opposed to "cheap" wine. I think there is about  $0.50 cent difference. If it costs under $3.00 it's cheap. If it costs over $3.00 it is "inexpensive". I'm enjoying this stab you in the gut Pinot Grigio drinking it from a mason jar. Let me tell you, in mountain society a jelly jar is for everyday but a mason jar is upscale and only used for company. I figured this is a festive season so I'm breaking out the mason jars. Besides, after 2 glasses of this, you don't care what your drinking out of, the dog's water bowl would do just fine, except that I would have to fight off the dogs.

So I imagine that you all are frazzled now with the holiday season, relatives and decorations. We don't decorate for Christmas, because some of the Doos, no names mentioned, view ornaments and decorations as hanging toys and things to be knocked down and eaten. So instead, I make them wear antlers and Santa and elf hats to amuse me. I'm amused, not them. I really need to get a camera so I can share these moments of humiliation.

For those of you Yorkie fan you will be glad to hear that they are all back in sweaters, some pastel, none of them "manly' Most of them embarrassing. They still run up and down the porch barking like crazy. Sunny  now considers them a dangerous threat. Okay, here is the story. One day when it was still fall. Sunny was out roaming and as he is want to do, he likes to go visit my neighbors on the porch and share any food they might be eating. So here he is on the porch and sharing a sandwich with David, one of the neighbors, and someone left their storm door unlatched and out piled two of the Yorkies and promply attached themselves to each of Sunny's ears. You never saw a dog exit a porch so fast. Luckily I was outside to observe it the look on his face was priceless. A dogs version of  WTF! He came running home and now checks out the location of said Yorkies before he crosses the creek. I don't blame him Yorkie earrings are definitely not in fashion.

With pigs gone it seemed kind of dull here, but the Lord provides. We have a new neighbor who is a complete asshole. He is a Yankee transplant from a suburb or city. He has provided us with a lot of entertainment and I will be writing about him in the coming blogs.

Well, the pot of pintos I have been cooking are ready, Yum, and I need a refill of wine. So bless you all and I will be posting soon. I miss ya'll too. So have a great Christmas don't get too drunk and fall into the tree. Don't feed your dogs turkey it gives them gas you wouldn't believe.
