Is here. Finally they have made up their minds what is wrong, and how to fix it. It has been many of weeks of on again, off again, this Dr, that Dr. *sigh*
I am glad they finally picked something. But I am a tad bit worried. I really had not thought much about it, or talked about it really even. It has been such a flip-flop-ity thing I figured it would be postponed or cancelled AGAIN. But here we are.
See ya when I see ya.
Happy Thursday!!!!!

Christmas Meme
I have seen this meme on several blogs. I usually do not do meme's, but I am all about Christmas so I thought I would chime in.
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Usually always wrapping paper. Occasionally I will use a bag, but I enjoy paper better. Usually snowman. I just :heart: snowmen.
2. Real tree or Artificial? Always had an artificial. I have mentioned getting a real tree a couple times, but DH says they are a pain.
3. When do you put up the tree? Usually Thanksgiving night, or next day.
4. When do you take the tree down? Varies. Usually first week in January. Once it was in April or May. Then there was the year of the ice storm, that tree didn't get down at all that year. lol.
5. Do you like eggnog? Sure. Why not?
6. Favorite gift received as a child? Didn't have Christmas as a child. But one December in possible '79 -'80 my parents got me Operation and a Polaroid camera. I still remember those gifts.
7. Hardest person to buy for? Since usually I only buy for husband or child, I will go with husband.
8. Easiest person to buy for? Since usually I only buy for husband or child, I will go with child.
9. Do you have a nativity scene? Yep, well son does. He sets it up in his room on the top of his dresser.
10. Mail or email Christmas cards? If I send them, mail cards.
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? Nothing comes to mind.
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Oh I have so many. I will go top 3, in no particular order. (1) The Santa Clause. (2) It's a Wonder Life. (3) Polar Express.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? Usually sometime in December. This year though since we are not having Christmas I didn't have to shop at all.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Not that I can remember .. [thinking .. thinking .. thinking] Nope. Least not that I recall.
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Everything. LOL. I am a fan of Christmas cookies.
16. Lights on the tree? Yes. Clear.
17. Favorite Christmas songs: All of them. I am a BIG BIG fan of Christmas music.
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Stay home. Though last couple years son and I drove over to my mothers, but that less than 3 miles, so I do not think that is considered traveling. This year we won't even have to do that.
19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Hmm .. possible, maybe, probably since I seen the answers.
20. Angel on the tree top or a star? We had a star of the top of our first Christmas tree when we first got married. Then we bought our BIG tree and we had a big bow that went on top. When the bow broke we had an angel. Then we downsized tree and we can not find an angel or a star that doesn't bend the top, and isn't heavy. I think I will go back to a bow, just thought of that as I was typing this answer. But to answer question: Currently nothing.
21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? Christmas morning.
22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? Attitudes.
23. Favorite ornament theme or color? Homemade.
24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? Ham, yams, pecan & Pumpkin pie.

Really I am a fan of all assortments. I think my one of my easiest to make favorites would be the cookies we make in the cookie press, for the life of me I can not remember the name at this moment. But they are so quick and easy and yieldbutt loads.

December has arrived
It's hard to believe that December has arrived. Wow, where did the year go!?! With all the hustle and bustle of Christmas, the month will pass by all too quickly. But, make sure to find a few minutes to enjoy and savor the many other holidays and events that occur in December.
Today is Eat a Red Apple Day. Hope you eat an apple today, and every day.
So we have another dusting of snow. I am the type person either snow or do not snow but stop half assing it. Dump it, and close the city!!
My battery died, so I didn't get a chance to snap any holiday decorating pictures of catcher dude's handy work.
I went out already this morning and went shopping for school cart. Got all my paper work in order and ready to turn in. I found a ubber cute coin bank for catcher dude's room. Of course his room is baseball theme, so when I saw this bank that was a baseball, I had to buy it. :)
I need to get some more cards filled out. I am shooting for Thursday as a mail out date. We will see. Dang!kid! got me all in the holiday mood with his decorating. I was all willing, prepared, set to let the season go by. Oh well. Fa-la-la-la!!
