Are you in the holiday spirit yet? WHAT? You say the gloomy dreary dismery has got you down? You are sick of the short days, and how they seem all brown and soggy? You tried to muster some excitement, so you got out the ornament box, and then your damn cat batted the only family heirloom you had right off the Christmas tree, and it shattered, and then you stepped on the broken glass?
Well, Eeyore, dry your tears and lift your chin. I've got a little list of festivities that might just inspire some cheer. (This list is kind of only good for Pennsylvanians and Vermonters, so if you're neither of those, here's what you do: make yourself a delicious cocktail, and throw some cranberries it it!)
It's First Friday in Scranton! Tonight is the opening reception for Art X5 at ArtWorks. Me and my original drawings will be there along with the works of these talented artists: Jean Adams, Siri Beckman, Jenn Bell, and Valerie Kiser.
Also tonight in Scranton, Holiday on the Square! (and tomorrow too). There is *so* much fun stuff planned for this event, and while technically yes the weather might be a teensy bit frightful, there are heated tents! Plus you can get your Old Timey Scranton Portrait taken! Drink free hot chocolate! Enjoy the tree lighting! Tonight my Totally Awesome Husband will be there selling my prints and Christmas cards while I'm around the corner at my opening. Tomorrow I'll be there. Hope to see you too!
And finally, at The Cotton Mill Open Studios & Holiday Sale in Brattleboro, Vermont, there will be... my dad's photographs, my mom's paintings, and my prints! If you're in the area, please stop in and say hello to my Totally Awesome Parents.

Let's include New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York in the easy-to-drive-to loops. That's 6 states...over 5% of the US! Looking forward to the weekend....Totally Awesome Mom.
