This post found over at Sjoggie StAHMer is simply too good not to re-post here. (With Blogger Mamma's permission, of course). It's entitled "12 Days of Sjogren's". *thunderous applause* Bravo! Bravo!!
I have been SO excited for Thanksgiving this year!!! Not for the turkey, pies, or family time. Though they were all fabulous!! I have been excited because I knew that as soon as Thanksgiving was over that I could reasonably start celebrating Christmas without seeming like a certifiable quack!
Guess what..... I had a fantastic day with family and friends yesterday but Thanksgiving is OVER!
*Maniacal laughter ensues*
So in honor of my first day of celebrating Christmas I have written a song. Most will be familiar with the tune of The 12 Days of Christmas. Enjoy!
