Aaahh, this is my kind of Monday! Still in my pj's at 10:30, enjoying a cup of coffee with mint mocha in it, yummy. Dd has a cookie exchange this afternoon with 7 other girls, so we're busy making 8 dozen cookies! It's going to be a riot, they give prizes for best cookie and for presentation, but the cookie she chose are UGLY (really they are!), so we are going with an ugly presentation. She decorated a cardboard box with photos of those really ugly dogs from contests and renamed the cookies UGLY DOG cookies! It's going to be so funny to set that amongst all the fancily decorated cookies and fancy trays with bows and ribbons. Dd is besides herself with excitement, she did it all herself and is quite proud!

I'm determined to work out this morning, it's been too cold for a run, but I hope to still do the elliptical, but I'm a bit hyped up on coffee that I better get to it soon!

Ds has a major job to do cleaning his room, so I suppose he'll stay home to do that. We're hoping to pick out a cedar tree to chop down this evening, we're putting it outdoors and decorating it to stay on the deck. We have an artificial indoors and none of us are happy with it, so we're hoping to make a new tradition.

This evening I need to start my Christmas cooking, we do a full blown (but small, just our little family) turkey and dressing dinner on Christmas day, but I get it all prepped ahead of time so it's just popping in the turkey that day, but that means I have to do the work now to have a leisurely Christmas.

I've wrapped NOTHING, so I need to find time for that too.

Hi all---


I am at work. It's a short work week for me. I work today and tomorrow and I'm not back until next Tuesday!


My mom just called and said that she may not come for Christmas. The weather out here is hideous and our family in Indiana have been without power since Thursday. They got word that they may be without power until AFTER Christmas. So I'm kind of bummed out.


Tonight when I get off work, I am going for my blow out and then to grab some stocking stuffers. It is so freaking cold out here!! Its 0 degrees but feels like -14?! WTHeck?!


Hope you all have a good one

I hope not. My brother flew in Saturday but orginally his flight was for Friday. It was cancelled.


I pray that your flight isn't cancelled.
