Jingle Those Bells!!!

I did not think there was a way to freshen up that ol’ standard ” Jingle Bells ” but Ummet Ozcan did it!

If you’re going to sing about horses jingling their way through the snow, then you should know that Mongolian horses are resilient and integral part of Mongolia’s culture, known for their enduranceadaptability, and historical significance.

The breed is purported to be largely unchanged since the time of Genghis Khan. Nomads living in the traditional Mongol fashion still hold more than 3 million animals, which outnumber the country’s human population. In Mongolia, the horses live outdoors all year, dealing with temperatures from 30 °C (86 °F) in summer down to −40 °C (−40 °F) in winter, and they graze and search for food on their own.

Mongolian horses are glorious animals and when you hear Jingle Bells, I hope you spare a thought for these amazing animals.

So here you are!

Mongolian Jingle Bells is here! This started as a fun idea… and thanks to all of the requests Ummet  Ozcan received , it turned into a full song and music video!

Word of the Day Challenge: GLORY

That Was FUN

The reason I loved the movie ” Red One ” so much is that it takes the idea of Santa and his Reindeer and Krampus had adventures- and when I like to day dream or when I write I always see new places and adventures just waiting for someone to reach out and grab them:

Check Into Netflix’s Haunted Hotel

I have two favorite cartoons-

one is ‘ Bluey ” which my Granddaughter introduced me to a few years ago and my current favorite is  “Haunted Hotel ” on Netflix:

My favorite character is Abbadon- his clueless take on all things practical and modern reminds me of myself when I was seven:

Even though Haunted Hotel IS a comedy, the reveal behind Nathan’s death took my breath away because I wasn’t expecting it.

AND there is a truly scary character called ‘Candlehead’ who is an eyeless horror of a man covered in wax with a burning candle stuck to the top of his head. He has a fixation about candles and to be honest- he sort of freaks me out-he is actually a scary ghost and I am curious about his backstory.

So there they are, two of my favorite cartoons check them out if you haven’t seen them already, they are great.

I feel like a ghost haunting my own life and

I wonder if someone were to walk into it, unaware of the monsters that live with me

would they scream? Run? Cry?

One can only hope.

Indeed.

One can only hope.
