Today is one of those days where I have worked all day and I still feel like I haven't gotten anything done. Sometimes it just feels like I'm spinning my wheels waiting for Christmas. :scene:

I really dread dragging out of the house today but I have a million things to do. I really need to go shopping and pick up some craft kits for the kids Christmas bazaar. :rudolph1:

Took the girls to see Ramona & Beezus - I was pleasantly surprised - I really liked the movie - a great show for kids of all ages. We also did a little window shopping and were telling each other what we'd like for Christmas and our birthdays. Then we met hubby for supper - it was a good day!!!

It's one of those dull days when you don't feel well and a little Christmas can put a sparkle in your eyes. I had ordered some Christmas cards from QVC's Christmas in July programming and they arrived today! :snowwow:

Kids went to a sleepover last night and go figure, I couldn't sleep in this morning - oh well. Have spent a little time working on Christmas stuff and will be going through my Christmas notebook today - now all I have to do is to find it. lol :lol:

Yesterday was a personal step forward for me -- I finally finished cleaning the entire house, organizing much more than I expected, and put away the last of the Christmas. Every year we forget certain items and then put them away throug the year - we're Christmas wacky! :lol:

So our bedroom has a fresh clean Spring look/feel to it just in time to start my Christmas decorating plans! :lol: My bewildered DH just shakes his head! :lol:

Another miserably hot and humid day here with the forecast showing no end in sight. The radio stations are playing some Christmas tunes to try to take people's minds off the heat. 8-)

Had a great weekend that flew by way too fast. Time is flying by at reindeer speed and Christmas will be here before we know it. :scene:

I need to sit down with my Lakeside catalog and get my order ready. I found several things that I'm going to order for Christmas gifts. :shop:
