Anybody have their christmas tree up yet?  Mine is still up but I'm "thinking" about taking it down tonight while the guys are at the Packer game.  I just HATE it when christmas is over.  Everything looks so bare.  You can also see how much dust is around here.  We have two fireplaces and sometimes dh has both of them going - talk about fine ash and dust!!!


One thing that has made it better is that the Packers are still playing (at least until tonight) even though the chill factor is like -20!!  Dh bought out Fleet Farm's hand and feet warmers!!  We sold our two spare tickets to a guy from Madison and then I sent him the WRONG tickets.  OMG, I was so upset I didn't sleep all night after he emailed me about my mistake.  Dh had said to go in the ticket drawer and get the NFC playoff tickets out of the envelope.  I did that, took their picture, posted it on ebay and voile' sold them within an hour.  What I didn't realize was that he still had the 2004 NFC playoff tickets in there (the Pack didn't qualify but the tickets were still printed).  I sent the guy two of those four!!  Poor fellow thought we were trying to cheat him.  Well now he has them and all is right with the world!~!  LOL


GO PACK GO!!!


love,

Kaci, I have to confess - I was secretly rooting for the Giants (I know, I know, I usually bleed green and gold).

Hi Eldri


Never got a tree put up this year with all the delays with our new hardwood flooring. So nothing to take down this year. However mine would have been down the day after Christmas always is. To many years with Dh working in retail I guess.


Heard the Packers lost sorry about that. Well poor guy I am sure he was feeling a bit cheated there glad you were able to fix the problem so quickly.


HUGS

Our tree was down on the 5th... and that was none too soon, with it beign so dry and the needles falling.
