Holiday Element

I don't really think these result apply to me at all; I don't shine "especially bright" at this time of year and don't have a lot of fun, nor do I craft fun items.  Since the Cowboys usually melt down during December, I'm usually not enthusiastic or optimistic. I DO try to make the best of the holiday, though.  I really haven't cared about the holiday since my momma passed away. -sigh-

The one thing that's right is that my holiday element is fire- I wish I had a fireplace for a little extra warmth and to lessen the huge natural gas bills during the winter.


Your Holiday Element is Fire

You shine brightly every time of year, but you shine especially bright during the holidays.

You have so much fun this time of year - whether you're getting friends together or crafting fun items.

You are enthusiastic and optimistic about the holidays. You make the best of whatever holiday you're able to have.


You know this is a hard time of year for some, so you try to cheer up everyone you know with cookie deliveries and little surprises. 


 



EDIT TO ADD: No, I don't have a fireplace, but I had forgotten about this Hulu video I saw a while back. Guess I could get my electric heater and put it at chest level while I sit at the computer and have it blast on me while I watch the vid.  There are several versions, some w/ music.

Our cable company has a Yule Log channel. You can choose based on your architectural preferences and need for music or just crackling fire noises. Yup, I checked 'em all out!

There's an hour long vid on YT of a cat sitting in front of the fire. I didn't watch it all the way through so I don't know if it sat there all that time or was edited to look that way, but it's a funny looking cat w/ its own channel.

My dad loved fireplaces and campfires. He bought a free-standing fireplace when they were living out in our old company provided house and burned all sorts of stuff in it and nearly had a disaster w/ a flue fire. I wasn't there, but he said it started roaring like a blast furnace. He would start a fire during holidays in their new house's fireplace, even if it was 60 deg. outside and never got the hang of adjusting the damper b/c either the house was smoky or the furnace stayed on all the time.

I saved those Hulu fireplace vids, dunno why, just because I guess.
