Kramer Chronicles-I'm Going Nuts!

Hey, it's me, Kramer and let me tell you I am going nuts with all of this Christmas decorating!

Everytime I get comfy somewhere, mom shows up with more decorations!

As you can see I finally found a quiet spot in the bedroom away from all of the craziness.

Now I did promise that I would show you the next room so I will but then I am coming back to finish my nap.

Follow me to the library where...yikes!

What on earth are these things?

 This is supposed to be Christmas, not Halloween!

 Who put these monsters here?

 (You're starting to see the irony in the title of this blog post now, aren't you)?

I mean, c'mon, this is the stuff nightmares are made of!

 And get a good look at this guy!

 He's Drossel somebody. He's the head of these guys! 

  I can't believe my mom likes these things!

They're just plain scary!

 Get a good look at thus one, he's got a chipped tooth!

Looks like he's been gnawing on someone!

Don't even get me started on this one! 

 Some have swords...

 some have weapons...

 and some have really mean looking tools!

What happened to peace on earth?

 I've had enough of all those scary guys.

I'm just going to sit on my window perch with my back turned to them, maybe then I'll forget that they're there.

You know, out of sight, out of mind?

I'll get comfy and look out the window at all of the...

Oh my, you won't believe this.

Now Mom is outside decorating!

Ugh! I really think she's lost it.

Maybe she can move those creepy guys outside.

Will this ever end?

Come back next week and I'll show you more of mom's Christmas craziness.

Until then,

Purrs and Meows,

Kramer

Kramer Chronicles-Christmas Kitchen

Well, you've seen the living room now it's time for the kitchen.

Follow me...

Even Elizabeth got decorated!

Mom added some stuff to the bathroom too.

I try not to stay put too long or mom may decorate me too.

In fact I think I hear her coming now with something jingling!

Yikes! The last time that happened I saw Lizzy running through the house with reindeer antlers on her head! Come back soon and I'll show you the next room.

Until next time,

purrs and meows,

Kramer

Kramer Chronicles-Christmas Decor Overload!

And my SAGA continues!

Mom and dad both spent days putting up Christmas decorations while the dogs and I looked on.

 

It all started with lots of junk, junk, junk!

I mean, come on, who keeps a giant egg?

Well before I knew it mom had the egg all decorated and sitting in an antique silver cup.

(she seemed really proud of herself so who was I to burst her bubble?)

I keep hearing her talk about being on a budget which I hope doesn't apply to my Christmas catnip!

She was very determined to use what she had around the house.

Then she took a little Christmas tree hung antique keys and vintage crystals from it and stuck it in a silver sugar bowl.

All of this she used to decorate the mantel that she just finished undecorating!

To be perfectly honest I was getting kinda bored (not to mention I was beginning to wonder about my mom's sanity with all this undecorating and redecorating).

So I went to my window seat and did a little bird-watching...

some surfing...

and some napping.

And what to my wondering eyes did appear when I awoke a few hours later?

 Christmas decor galor!

I thought this vignette needed a little Kramer:).

Even the coasters were decorated!

Only my mom would buy a vintage red peacock at thrift store.

 

By nightfall everything looked pretty cozy.

 

 

 

Total cost for this room, $3.50.

So I sat back and enjoyed all the splendor.

All of this coziness is making me sleepy.

I think it's time for a nap!

Come back tomorrow to see the next room!
