So, I just had to make a frantic run to the grocery store for pudding and Cheer detergent. Seems the Halls were still holding a grudge from when our group of carolers went out years ago and were outside scream singing "Bring us some friggin’ pudding and a cup of good Cheer” Over and over. Apparently the Halls were still mad about being decked and had ideas of pudding running through their heads. Or, ON someone’s friggin’ heads. Guess the Cheer was for after. You know? To clean up the mess. Never heard that story? Well, here it is. So, who doesn’t like to go caroling around the neighborhood! Like I said, a few years back we did just that. We started out with "Deck The Halls". How was I to know the first house of neighbors name WAS “The Halls”, and that Joe would actually deck them. Joe got mad when he thought we were telling him to put on Don's clothes because his own apparel was gay. Which they certainly WERE very happy joyous clothes. He just didn't get it. And, by the time we got to the “Boughs” house next door? Well, let’s just say, “Berry strange doesn’t cover it”! Mr. Bough had hung his wife Holly on the front door and called her Wreath-a. He thought she was calling him an ancient troll. The nerve! And, to top it off? Yul? Well, he was all decorated with flashing lights and caught himself on fire. We def saw the blazing Yul before us! We had to put him out and then get fa la la away! Lesson? Never underestimate the power of interpretation. The next time we attempt caroling? We’re singing “Silent Night”! I love you guys. You sleigh me! Don’t hold a grudge. Hold a tune. If you feel like you have to deck? Pow instead! Pow-wow! Have a pow-wow and fix it. If you can't? Have a pow-wow with God. Wow! Makes sense to me. But, then, I'm lost in fa lala land. Signed, She Finds The Jolly In The Folly Cuz She's Got Pow Wow
