We had a thunderstorm last night with lots of lightning and rain but thankfully no severe stuff here. Just lots and lots of flooding south of us. It's been so foggy all day. I have been doing some online shopping. I just bought dd a silly hair lalaloopsy doll and I also got her the mini Christmas doll, Holly Sleighbells. She's gonna love them.

My dd is gonna be very, very happy this Christmas! A gift that she has been begging for was just delivered. I can't wait to see her little face when she opens it.

We are expecting LOTS more rain here tonight and tomorrow. Guess I won't be doing any outside decorating for awhile

Thanksgiving break is here!! Hello 5 day weekend! I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving with their families!!

Hope you're all ready for the big Thanksgiving celebration here in America! We have a respiratory virus so my sister is fixing the meal and her hubby is a chef! Just one day without being a diabetic to indulge would be wish for the day!

Christmas sales begin tomorrow..........so glad I've finished shopping. Well.........there are always last minute Secret Santa gifts. Still, when I'm feeling better I can't wait to start decorating.

Since we're fighting termites, no tree for us this year. Even artificial trees touch the ceiling!

So sorry about all the trouble! Our artificial tree is only 4 ft high but perfect for a small swedish apartment. However, I have not cleaned up the living room (my boxes from the US are still there for lack of any other spot to put them), so I am unsure we will even put it up. then again, we could put it on top of a box and make it taller!

First accumulating snow of the season! Glad I don't have to worry about the commute to work tomorrow morning. Everyone traveling in the northeast, please be careful.

I saw "The Christmas Blesssing" movie playing on Lifetime this evening. It makes me want to read and watch all of the books and movies from "The Christmas Shoes" series again.

First blast of winter here as well. Freezing rain last night then snow. It looks like a beautiful Christmas card. Waiting on a call from my hubby that he made it safely to work.

I'm a little jealous of all you that are already getting snow. I'm dreaming of a White Christmas.

Noel--Hoping you and your family feel better soon. Being sick at the holidays is such a drag. And I'm really sorry you can't put up your Christmas tree. Hoping things start looking up for you soon.
