Day 170 – 10 days till Christmas
This year is flying by. With only 10 days until Christmas, I hope that everyone has all their shopping done. The nice thing about Christmas this year is that it is a long weekend and with most people knocking off early on Christmas eve, it makes for a wonderful break, even if you don’t get to head out of town.
Another reason I love this time of year is that the Movie Award Season has just kicked off. I am a big Movie award buff. I have all the Academy Award shows on tape and never miss a single other Award show. It’s tradition in our house to print off ballots and make our picks for every event.
Well this week Awards season officially kicked off with the LA & New York Film Critics Awards and the Golden Globes that were announced yesterday and on Thursday the Screen Actors Guild announce their nominations. So you will be seeing a lot of Award show references for the next few months until the Grande Dame of Awards are presented at the Oscars in March. My early money is on “Up in the Air”, Invictus & “The Hurt Locker”, but it’s very early days. Come along for the ride.
That being said it is still the Hanukkah festival and tonight we light 6 candles. So, here is Menorah design no. 6
The 6th Candle is lit tonight
