What an awful day this had turned out to be..it's been kind of snowing but the snow is real fine and it's freezing to the surfaces, so roads are getting treacherous and the wind is bone chilling. Now if our city would do some salting, my trip to work in the morning should be okay but if it's like last year, our roads will be pretty bad in the morning. We have horrible snow and ice removal anymore and there is no excuse for it...all of a sudden anyway. They used to do a decent job but the past 2 to 3 years have been really bad. Oh well, I'll be driving 5 mph--LOL!!
My Christmas cards are done, addressed, and stamped so they'll be mailed out this coming weekend....my DH didn't want me to mail them today, as he thought it was too early, so I agree to wait till the weekend. He put up our tree today and got down all the house decor, so I'll finish that up tomorrow and Wednesday...then the house is ready the holidays. Now if I could just get the few remaining gifts taken care of this week, we'll be set. I will have to mail the packages to Arizona to my son and his family, so I told my DH to hurry up with the "stockings" so we could get stuff sent out...(he has done pantyhose stockings since our kids were little and they still expect them every year---they are nothing but hose filled with stuff he gets at the $1 spots and $1 stores--but the kids love them). This tradition started when he discovered that the Christmas stockings just aren't big enough for all the "junk" he buys...oh well, the kids (big and small) love them and that's what counts.
I did get some scrapbooking done this past weekend after I finished the cards....I actually have the pages caught up for my grandchildren--that is until Christmas. Now maybe I can get back to some of our old vacation pictures that I want to do books on....these projects will take me a long time to do so I work on them in between the kid's books. I'm off Wednesday through Sunday, so I'll get some scrapping time, maybe a day or two as I have appointments on Wednesday and Thursday...and the housework to do, yuck!! I promised myself that these days would not be wasted so I WILL get some pages completed. I'll update on this later.
Good night all!!
