Judie Kraemer (Day)
Since the Christmas Season is in full swing I wanted to share this with all of you and wish you all a Merry Christmas. I call it, "Twas the Week Before Christmas."
Twas the week before Christmas and there's such a mess all over the house
That I don't think you could even find our resident mouse.
Things have been so chaotic with all this Christmas Cheer.
That I'll just be happy to get back to my regular routine next year.
Me and my husband's checkbook right here in my lap.
The retailers all take me for one great big sap.
When out of the media there's always such chatter,
I jumped out of bed thinking finances don't really matter.
I got out my credit cards and headed out with a dash.
After all, it's zero per-cent interest and six months same as cash.
So you see there's really nothing to fear
Except whether or not the collection bureau is near.
It cost a small fortune to rent the suit and the sleigh,
But nevertheless St. Nick's on his way.
And I heard them exclaim as I was walking away,
The bill will be in the mail come next Monday.
Soon the gifts will all be wrapped and under the tree.
After this week I'll be able to breathe much more easily.
And next month when the bills all start rolling in,
I'll be able to face it all with a grin
Because I'll be back to the "HUM DRUM LIFE" I live in.
Oh I hope you'll forgive me for bending your ear and have a
VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
