Santa’s Elves

(Dec-19-2011) The years seem to fly by and all of a sudden, before you know it, Christmas is upon us – my absolute favorite holiday! Oh my goodness, the excitement of Christmas shopping, baking cookies, anticipating UPS deliveries, will this or that gift be mailed to us on time? So maybe I’ve been procrastinating a little. So maybe I planned a short vacation with my return just days before Christmas. It’s all fine, my husband has been keeping a watch out for everything, he even called me today saying, “it’s ready!” I had no idea what he was talking about. I’d totally forgotten bugging him daily to check on the progress of one particular “artsy” gift we planned for one of our children and he was calling to tell me “IT” was ready. Santa’s elves have been working very hard! I wish you all the most joyous of Holiday Seasons and God Bless.

GO’s Sand Bucket is only one beach bum’s journal of life at the beach, probably something each of you can relate to. Please feel free to email me with your thoughts, visions and/or feelings of just exactly what the beach means to you.

    • Slow Down

      By Georgia Osten Drastically slower pace now that we’re back home. We made the trip home from practically the southern tip of Florida in one day. It’s at least a 14-hour trip no matter how you look at it. We made a slight detour on the way back through Panama City to get out son-in-law to his car – long story, too long. I don’t remember where we were when

Who could have ever guessed that a hair-sniffing, puppet-headed, lame duck figurehead would stoop below previously historic lows long enough to label the folks of the orange opposition as nothing but “garbage” … what a truly tart treat from the grifting chief trickster! Or who could have guessed

    • Miss Bee’s Bolivar Buzz

      By Shannon Williams “If Plan A fails, remember you still have 25 letters left” I love to make plans, it is almost a disease, as I just have to have a plan for just about everything, and I have to admit that I like to plan. I view myself as being flexible to change those plans, as there are just way too many things that can get in the way of a good plan. The past several
