Thanks for all your comments, wishes, prayers and concern for my unusual and extended absence from the Blogosphere. :)
Hope your weekend is a nice one. Let's kick off this TGIF with a double header Friday Foible. What is it about the holidays that make "normal" folks go a little nuts? Whatever it is, I wish it'd last longer into the new year. LOL Enjoy...
What can ya say? Maybe sing, "Rudolph the Redneck Reindeer?"...
This Christmas home decorator below sure used his/her thinking cap...
The note that accompanied this photo in an email (thanks Trudy!) says:
Good news is that I truly outdid myself this year with my Christmas decorations. The bad news is that I had to take him down after two days because I had more people come screaming up to my house than ever. Great stories, but two things made me take it down.
First, the cops advised me that it would cause traffic accidents as they almost wrecked when they drove by.
Second, a 55 year old lady grabbed the 75-pound ladder almost killed herself putting it against my house and didn’t realize that it was fake until she climbed to the top (she was not happy). By the way, she was one of the many people who attempted to do that. My yard couldn’t take it either; I have more than a few tire tracks where people literally drove up into my yard…

Yay! You're back. Love that first picture.
As far as your Christmas decorations go--Ah, being a warm beacon in this sometimes cruel world ain't easy. I wish I could have seen your masterpiece. I would've kept a respectable distance, though. : )
LOL That is sooo funny. I would love to try that one!
Love the reindeer sled! Happy to have you back Angie, you were missed. This Louisana humor is hard to find!
LOL.. that ladder mishap decoration is hilarious. I want one! The reindeer.. not so much.
Good to see you. :)
HELP! I've fallen and I can't get up!!! Because I'm laughing so hard!!
Ohhh, that first one gives me the willies. (Never having been around hunting much.) But the second? LOLOLOL!
Those are too funny! Hope you are having a great week.
LOL Rebecca. Not my decorations, but sure wish I'd have thought of it...but guess it wouldn't work as well with a one story house, huh? This Grinch probably isn't even putting up a tree this year! ;)
Tabitha - me and you both!
Thanks for the sweet words, Tamika. I've missed y'all too!
Ditto Hilary on "seeing" ya again. I bet you could come up with some sort of photographic decoration. :)
LOL Donna! (Hope to get to the crawfish email today.)
Janna - We're literally surrounded by all things hunting here. In fact, King Rufus is making a duck hunting day trip today. Would ya believe our tech guy works on our PCs for deer meat?!
Thanks Scobber. Hope same for you. Hows the new book coming along?
Love the Clark Griswold hanging off the side of the house photo. Too funny! :O)
Hahaa!
I got that email with the guy hanging off the roof. Too funny!
Glad to see you back!
Me too Diane. Tickled my wanky funny bone.
Hey Jessica! :)

I had seen that one with the man hanging from the roof. GREAT idea, whoever did it. Shame there isn't some way to do it, make it look real, but still have folks realize it isn't.
K.M. - So glad you enjoyed! Thanks for stopping by. :)
Lynnette - Glad to share the smiles. It's part of my mission. LOL
Hey Suldawg! How about dressing the dummy up as Santa Claus or an elf? :D
Glad to see that you're alive and well, and still kickin', cher! Have a merry weekend!
LOL! I would love to do the guy hanging from the roof, but we live in a rancher, so I don't think it would have quite the same effect. :D
You were greatly missed. And hey, I thought you were going to say it was the hubby. :)Hilarious.
Cool Redneck Reindeer. :)
Love the redneck reindeer. We moved into a new neighborhood this year. People around here are crazy! They're houses are decorated with so many lights it looks like Chevy Chase has been visiting. I hung a wreath and some garland. That's it.
omg I LOVED that! I want one for my house!!!!!
Oh, that is hilarious! I have been missing your posts!
Thanks for the laughs, Angie! Good to see you're knocking those gators out of the way! Happy writing!
Okay, ewww to the redneck santa's sleigh. Then laughing out loud at the other picture - especially after reading the message that goes with it. Great imagination there! Thanks for the chuckle to start my weekend. Love.
The very same to you Marguerite. :)
Deb - You could hang your decorator from the barn roof or hay loft. LOL
Thank you Robyn. If DH (Deer Hunter) was home, he could make and sell those...but alas, the woods call constantly.
Elizabeth - Sometimes less really is more. :)
VM - If DH (Deer Hunter) Rufus could ever pass up a weekend in the woods, he could make these to sell!
Missed y'all too Lori & Stacy. Yep, trying to knock them gators in the head as hard as I can!
Deb - Hope it's just the beginning of a really fun weekend for you. Holiday huggage!
DH never told me he has a sleigh. Pretty cool. Good seeing ya'll Wednesday night.
Oren
Glad things are settling down with you and that you are back! Missed all the funnies and stuff. Red-neck reindeer is great!
Oren, I can't believe he hasn't shared his 4-wheeler sleigh with you! (We enjoyed the potluck too.)
Karen - I'm glad things aren't quite as frantic too. Thanks. :)
That first picture would sickly please my hunter of a husband. LOL> Too funny.
Angie, you have the gift of humor! Loved this post. Thank you for your comment to me today, truly!
The Redneck Reindeer is pricless. Seriously, I wouldn't buy it. ;)
T. Anne - Mine would duplicate the Redneck Santa on 4-wheeler rig...hence, I shan't be showing it to him. ha!
TTWC - Thanks and you're welcome. One step at a time friend. Hugs
L.T. - :D
Bright lights and tire tracks; now why did I know you'd be all shiny for Christmas? Enjoy the parties for hosting and marshmallows for toasting, Angie!
I've been chronically absent for the last few months as well. I miss all the blogs I like to follow and mine is suffering horribly. Now that I'm on break between semesters, maybe I can catch up!
Hope you have a good holiday!
i like it, happy festivities :)
Good luck rolling through those submissions!
That is too funny! Thanks for the smiles.
Merry Christmas!
I've been mostly MIA around the blog world lately too. It's tough this time of year. Glad to hear you and Kat are making progress on your baby:)
My friend actually posted this so I sent her a link to your blog posted on FB. She is a really fun person.
You sneaky lady! That ladder picture looked real!
Have a fab weekend!
I'm reading this the Friday after you wrote it. Does that tell you anything?
Hope all is well.
Merry Christmas my neighbor and Have a Very Blessed New Year!
I completely missed that first picture the first time around.
I SO need that for Tightwad. If I don't kill him.
