Wow!
SIXTY Monday Morning Mojos! I passed the one year mark and didn’t realize it—who knew our stinky little bulldog would practically take over the site?
Today’s issue features Mojo’s good friend and partner-in-crime, Clara. You can read up on Clara here if you like, or just launch the comic, either by clicking on the image to the right or this link.
Judy is an unrelenting source of good things: first, the snowflake maker that benefits the Salvation Army, and now Elf Yourself.
Yay, Judy! Talk about fun! I couldn’t wait to use it for my weekly procrastination post, so here I am, dancing at the North Pole. I can really move, can’t I?
(I couldn’t figure out how to link to it, until I used the “send to a friend” option and sent myself a link. Just in case you can’t figure it out, either.)
Today’s Super Sabado is about (Read the rest of “Super Sabado: Elf me, baby”)
Do you remember last year’s holiday ode to procrastination?
Sadly, the Snow Gallery has closed. But I found something almost as much fun: make your own snowflake!
It took me a while to get the hang of the scissors, but it’s a lot of fun once you do. You can save your snowflake, download it, or just link to it.
Ignore the above snowflake maker! Judy has pointed out a MUCH BETTER snowflake maker, because each snowflake you make increases Popular Front‘s donation to the Salvation Army, one of my favorite charities.
This way you can procrastinate for a good cause! It sure doesn’t get any better than that.
And now, back to this regularly scheduled post!
And no matter how much you cut up your flake, IT STILL WORKS—unlike my always-botched childhood snowflakes. I never could get any of them to look halfway decent. If only my second-grade teacher could see me now!
What do your snowflakes look like?

I’m experimenting with a new format for the Monday Morning Mojo: a comic book!
I made it with a great little piece of Mac software called Comic Life, and dang, is it ever fun to play with.
Click on the picture of the comic and a new window should appear. If it doesn’t, try this link. I don’t know yet what this will do in an RSS feed.
In fact, if anybody has any problems, please let me know. I’ve never used a javascript command in a WordPress post before and am not sure how it works, but it IS working on my end.
UPDATED TO ADD: This is a 2-page comic. There’s a little “Next” button at the bottom of the page, in case you guys don’t notice!
The boy who knows it all—and knows it better than his parents ever did before we forgot it all in our geriatric haze—that boy? He is driving.
And I, naturally, am in a bit of shock, but not because of Tiger’s new driver’s license. And no, not because of our greatly increased insurance rates, either, although I think our insurance bill would be an excellent substitute for a heart defibrillator.
Nope, I am in shock because everybody—and I mean EVERYONE—in the cul-de-sac HAS ALREADY DECORATED.
While I was busy stressing and fretting over impending vehicular doom, all of my neighbors decided to show me up with a Christmas/Hannukah festivity that puts the Wren Casa to shame. I’ve got to catch up!
I’ve got to string the Christmas lights, put up the tree, and decorate it… all this weekend! And then I’ve got to do the Christmas cards! And I’ve got to do it ALL BY MYSELF because my men are doing a swim meet this weekend.
I never thought I’d ever say it, but here goes:
