Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas | Alonso Duralde

Thanks @dabbe & @TheSpineView for the #TLT #ThreeListThursday tags! 🤗

I guess I have watched & do watch a lot of Christmas movies!🤷🏻‍♀️🎄

My Top 4:
-Love Actually*
-Elf
-The Holiday*
-The Year Without a Santa Claus (fave from childhood love me some Heat Miser🔥& Snow Miser❄️)

Honorable Mentions I can‘t leave out:
-The Family Stone* 😢🩵
-The Grinch Who Stole Christmas (cartoon version because my Dad 💚)
-While You We‘re Sleeping*

⬇️

TheSpineView 🥰😊🌞 2w

DebinHawaii …
-Love Hard* (favorite newish❤️Jimmy O Yang)
-Die Hard (it is indeed a Christmas Movie!)
-A Christmas Story (so quotable. EVERY time I see a box marked Fragile “Fraa-jeel-aay! It must be Italian!"

* Means I‘ve already watched it this year & likely will again.

OK, I have beef with some omissions like Bridget Jones‘s Diary (it starts & ends with New Years but there is Christmas & Mark Darcy‘s reindeer sweater!) I watch it the week in between?? (edited) 2w

dabbe Wowza! #yourock Thanks for playing and sharing! 💙❄️💙 2w

You know how the days just run away from you in a week? Too busy baking for my markets. Well, I found 123 words in #WinterGames24 #WordSearch Total points of 1,230 #HolidayBookDragons @StayCurious

5feet.of.fury Same. I forgot about it until today & I had a lot of errands so I found as many as I could while my hair dye was processing 😂 2w

JenlovesJT47 I have a question. I hadn‘t been doing the word search yet but I went back last night through all of the books I read this month so far and did the word search. What would be the best way for me to post my points? I don‘t want to have to make a post for each book as it would take forever 😆 11h

LiseWorks Lol make a list woth points and post it 8h

So I‘ve been keeping a log of what I have read since 1986. Just dates, titles , authors. No reviews , just noting rereads. What a long strange trip it‘s been.

tpixie That‘s awesome 🤩 2w

dabbe 🤩🤩🤩 2w

AmyG I have a list since 5/10/74. Isn‘t it wild when you go back to read it….see what you were reading back in the day? 2w

Suet624 I was just updating my latest journal. Nothing glamorous but packed full of quotes since at least 2002. I moved so much before that time that I think I‘ve lost my earliest ones from the 70s. It‘s a treasure to have them. 2w

AnnCrystal That's awesome, just began mine in 2023. 📚📔💝. 2w

Hooked_on_books Mine goes back to the 80s as well, but I don‘t know the date, as I initially didn‘t track that. For years I had a 3 ring binder and loose leaf, as I tracked by author‘s last name and that way I could add pages wherever needed. I would take it with me to the used bookstore to make sure I didn‘t buy any I‘d already read. 😉 2w

sisilia Wow this is wonderful 😍 2w

Leftcoastzen @Suet624 I wish I had earlier ones , I used to think I would always remember! ha ha ha! 2w

Leftcoastzen @AmyG wow ! I had better taste back then I think. I shunned popular stuff . 2w

Leftcoastzen @Hooked_on_books good old system. I‘m keeping it up despite computerized ways to keep track. 2w

AmyG Ha! I have better taste now. I read alot of garbage. 🤣 2w

dabbe @TheSpineView It was one of my favorite things to show my students when we'd start the first grammar unit of the year. I then told them, if I see zero errors in your writing, we won't “do“ grammar. Guess what never happened? 😂 2w

TheSpineView @dabbe I can imagine! Great story. 2w

Now who is ready to figure out December‘s #WickedWords Book/Movie?
-Christmas
-Necklace
-Art Gallery
-Lobster
-Office

Feel free to guess, I will reveal at the end of the month!

Read4life Thanks, @AsYouWish 💙❄️💙. @Lauredhel Same 🤣🤣🤣 3w

AsYouWish @TEArificbooks Maybe….😉 3w

AsYouWish @Lauredhel 🤭 I mean I couldn‘t make it too easy! 3w

AsYouWish @TheAromaofBooks @Read4life 💙💙💙💙 3w

Sarahreadstoomuch Ok if I jump in and start playing? This seems like a fun challenge ☺️ is it one word per book? Or could you use the same book for a couple words (especially if going back to past months)? 3w

AsYouWish @SarahReads Of course!!!! Glad you found us!! You can use one book for all the words, you can use a different book for all the words, you can use an image on the cover of the book, etc. It is very flexible and you can use the words however you want. I also accepted variations of the words (love - lover, lovely, etc.) If you have any questions please feel free to ask! Everyone is super supportive and we all have the same goal - read books! 💙💙💙 3w

Sarahreadstoomuch @AsYouWish awesome! Thank you! I‘m looking forward to it,,, I‘ve been watching the tag and seeing all the different ways people are completing this - love it! Oh, and I didn‘t actually see your response…. I don‘t know if you have a tag list for communicating, but I‘m the long @sarahreadstoomuch (and I‘m just now seeing how many similar names there are😳) 2w

Kappadeemom I am currently reading about an art theft so this counts as art gallery!

If you guessed that the #WickedWords Book/Movie this month was Son In Law, you were correct!

I know what you are thinking - ummm… Elizabeth that is only a movie not also a book! Well you are technically correct, but there are books based on the themes in the movie, so I am counting it, lol! Also I couldn‘t pass up the chance to use this movie because it is definitely a holiday tradition for me to watch it!

CoffeeNBooks I haven't watched this movie in sooooo long! I might need to watch it again. 😁 3w

AsYouWish @CoffeeNBooks I am amazed at how much it still makes me laugh and it is one of the movies I pretty much have memorized!! 3w

#WeirdWordWednesday @CBee

I ran across this new to me word last week. I'm trying to jot words down as I stumble upon them. Not sure I would call this one weird but I found it interesting and thought you might too.

A toast to weird, wonderful and interesting words!!! 🍾🍾🍾
Happy Wednesday!

CBee Weird is used pretty loosely 😊 Great word!! 1mo
