1. Are you more task oriented or people oriented? Elaborate. I get my tasks done....but I am definitely a Mary in a Martha world and am people oriented.
2. December 15 is National Wear Your Pearls Day...do you own/wear pearls? If you're a man answering the question, does your sweetheart own or wear pearls? Everyone share a 'pearl of wisdom' with us here today. I adore pearls and own a couple of strands of black, gray, and white.
My pearl of wisdom for today is this...
3. Speaking of pearls...oysters? Are you a fan or not a fan? If you answered yes, tell us your favorite way to eat oysters? If you said no, be honest-have you ever tried one or does just the idea of eating an oyster make you gag a little? I like oysters. They're not my favorite seafood, but I like them. Best way? Raw
4. Time Magazine has named President-elect Donald Trump Person of the Year. Let's take presidents and presidential candidates out of the mix for a minute. If a political figure had not been chosen who would you name Man or Woman of the Year for 2016? I would have had it be a collage of a firefighter, policeman, or military personnel.
5. The Pantone Color of the Year for 2017 has been announced and it's a vibrant green, aptly named-greenery. Your thoughts? Is this a color currently in your home or wardrobe? Will you add something in this shade for the new year? Click here to see the color. I love the color green! I don't have the color in my home, but see it all around just outside my windows. I would definitely wear this color, and have a top that's close to it. I might look for something in this particular shade because I like to wear green.
6. Today I've had too many__________________. ...argumentative students, whining parents, and negative people for one day.
7. Share a favorite lyric from a favorite Christmas carol. I have a carol and a song I want to share.
The first is by Pentatonix
"Mary, Did You Know?"
Mary, did you know that your baby boy would one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you've delivered, will soon deliver you.
Mary, did you know that your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy will calm the storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little baby, you kiss the face of God.
Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the dead will live again.
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak, the praises of the lamb!
Mary, did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
That sleeping child you're holding is the great I am.
Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
Mary, did you know?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you've delivered, will soon deliver you.
Mary, did you know that your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy will calm the storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little baby, you kiss the face of God.
Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the dead will live again.
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak, the praises of the lamb!
Mary, did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
That sleeping child you're holding is the great I am.
Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
Mary, did you know?

I'll Be Home For Christmas
I'm dreamin' tonight of a place I love
Even more than I usually do
And although I know it's a long road back
I promise you
Even more than I usually do
And although I know it's a long road back
I promise you
I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
If only in my dreams
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
If only in my dreams
8. Insert your own random thought here. Being sick during the holidays stinks. I have been sick since Thanksgiving and right now am trying to get through finals on the 20th so I can work on getting better. Merry Christmas to all.....and say a little prayer for me tonight.

Sending hugs and prayers that you're feeling better soon! Being sick is no fun! Feel better!
I'm sorry to read you've been sick and hope you are feeling better soon. I love your answer on number 4. Also, the Mary, Did You Know is one of my favorites.
That would have been a great choice of people for Time Magazine. Sorry about that day you had with the students and parents. Those Pentatonix are so talented. Karen do you know what is wrong with you? Please get well soon. Sending prayers your way....
