Merry Creepy Vintage Christmas (re-do)

-
This year, when people are struggling so much for whatever personal reason, I didn't feel like adding any extra "creepy" to our holidays, but I can see that this post is still getting some buzz from last year -- So, I'll repost...But let it be said I do hope your holidays are anything but disturbing.  

 Merry (disturbing) Christmas!

I started out with the best of intentions.

I was researching vintage Christmas stockings to make with the kids, when unfortunately I stumbled across these rather more unusual images of holidays gone by.

Me? Currently, I am just an Orange County mom who loves theater almost as much as she loves writing.  (True, I used to act, but now I just "mom."  And I write.  But, again to clarify: Not a critic.) And these her blogged thoughts are just my day-after impressions after having seen some great theater in Los Angeles last night.

I was a newly transplated girl from New Orleans dropped unceremoniously into a tiny, extremely humble elementary school out in the boondocks of southern Vermont.  I had NO idea what the hell I was doing there and was suffering my own case of "Other-itis."   I In my case, as an only child of often charming, but highly eccentric parents, my wild ride hit some very bumpy patches, More on that later. Back to Eric:  See as a newcomer that year to Vermont from New Orleans I had an accent.  I wore dresses and probably continuing too make my parents happy by literally curtseying to the adults they trotted me out to meet. Politely.  Of course.  That was my job.   I can promise you, however, once you curtsy to a farmer, y
