I've been tagged!

I was tagged by Angie. Here are the rules:

1. choose the 4th picture folder on your computer

2. choose the 4th picture

3. explain the picture

This is it. Sadly it isn't half as interested as the one Angie posted (she's about three and sitting on a dead deer her daddy had killed!). It's our corner cabinet decorated for Christmas last year. It's not quite decorated like that this year, and I'll try to get pictures of this year's decorations taken and posted to Flickr this weekend.

On the cabinet from top to bottom: Two nutcrackers from my Uncle Don; my Noah's ark; a nutcracker pillow that Angie's family gave me for Christmas one year; a really cool clear plastic set of a fiddler, a caroler, and a light pole; a $1 nativity from the dollar store; a snowball; a handpainted Christmas ornament; a nutcracker nativity given to me by my Uncle Don; a lighted house; a snowglobe with a violin playing snowman; and the twin to the snowman on the middle shelf. This year the cabinet features even more nutcrackers and several Santas.

Please keep my mom in your thoughts. While her last chemo went pretty smoothly (her port actually worked like it was supposed to this time), she now is battling a viral infection. It could be the flu or something similar, but it's hard for a person who has a compromised immune system to fight off. My grandma called on Tuesday to let me know mom was sick and had gone to the doctor for some medicine. Mom didn't even feel like talking so I didn't get to talk to her on Tuesday, but I talked to her last night and she said she felt better than she did the day before.
