11 Delightful Diners- written in a disturbingly cheerful script

[hatesgoodbyes]

Well Hello everyone!

I know this is a busy holiday season and we're all running around like busy little beavers trying to get in all that last minute shopping and cooking and getting ready for guests.

I just wanted to say that should you need to borrow a cup of sugar, a roll of scotch tape or sit down to have a hot cup of coffee or cool cocktail to ward of the chill and stress in the air, our door is always open.

Dear friends and neighbors this is a hectic time of year, but don't let the flurries rain on your parade, your friends in the community will always be there to lend a hand.

How kind of you to extend such a heartfelt greeting to your neighbors! You're such a sweetheart, and we're all blessed to have someone like you among the group. It's almost silly to think anyone could possibly need for anything here, but the sentiment is just so lovely.

Isn't she just the darned sweetest thing. I can't tell you how lucky I feel to have such a fine lady in my life.

Dictated

[putuporshutup]

She really is. Maybe not as lucky as my husband, but I think the four of us could argue about that all day!

[There's a pleasant chuckle]

A debate that would only leave all of us feeling all the luckier to be with who we are I'm sure.

Naturally. I suppose we'll just have to try to settle it over cocktails this weekend. I do hope you'll make it, I'm making that spiced egg nog you like so much!

We wouldn't miss it for the world! I promise to let the other guests have a chance to sample your spiced 'nog this year.

[putuporshutup]

Oh, don't worry, Leo. I'm making extra just for you. Can't wait to see you, darlings.

That's the point of community! WE all come together to help and support and cheer each other. I just feel so happy to have such a wonderful place to live and share with my husband. [Yes, there was a dreamy sigh there.]

Dictated

[putuporshutup]

Trust me, I know the feeling. [An equally dreamy sigh. Isn't life just grand?!]</small. Aren't we just the luckiest?

Dictated

[hatesgoodbyes]

We certainly are. I don't know what I'd do without Leo, he's just the bees knees.

I could not agree more. Christmas is a time about togetherness after all.

Dictated

[hatesgoodbyes]

Well then I absolutely hope we'll get to see you around the big party! For such a cheery attitude I'll whip up a big batch of sugar cookies just for you!

Dictated

[hasmommyissues]

Ooh they will just go straight to my hips ... but how can I resist at Christmas?

I will be happy to attend.

Dictated

[hatesgoodbyes]

Splendid! And your hips might be the talk of the town, if you forgive my being so forward to say.

Oh stop you ... you'll make me blush.
