My girl will be home in 9 days! Christmas in 11 days! And vacation after that... woohoo! :-D

I got the Christmas tree up a couple of days ago. Can't convince they boys to help any more, so I ended up doing it myself, but Robbie chatted with me while he played a video game, so that was alright. A few weak moments, but for the most part.... okay.

I got a very welcome financial "bonus" yesterday, which was awesome. And I may have an extra hour a week at work starting in the new year. That is nice, because I don't work full time hours, so anything extra would be much be much appreciated.

I need to go eat supper and then make a couple of loaves of sandwiches for the Advent service/lunch tomorrow. I love the Advent noon hour services -- which all 6 of our churches host ecumenically -- but I ended up missing two out of the four this year. Tomorrow's service is the last one.

Sorry for such a brief update, but I can't think of anything else at the moment..... lol.

"Remembering You" added to my videos

I added Steven Curtis Chapman's video "Remembering You", from the Music Inspired by the Chronicles of Narnia to my playlist (scroll down to the bottom to see). Great song! The movie looks really good, I hope to get a chance to see it. Waiting for a review from you, Slicer! ;-)

Robbie and I went to Saskatoon yesterday and finished up our Christmas shopping. Yay! I even wrapped a few presents last week, so I'm ahead of the game there. The tree isn't up yet, but we usually do that just after my birthday, so maybe on Sunday or Monday. Seems like I'm the only one interested in doing the actually decorating of the tree anymore, so it's not quite the same. Oh well, I'm going to enjoy it whether the boys want to help or not. Put on some Christmas music, have some eggnog.... ;-)

I received my first Christmas card the other day... thanks, Joyce! I should really get a few sent out. I was thinking about it a few weeks ago, but it seemed too early to do them, and now of course it's only a couple of weeks until Christmas!

Okay, off to get a few things done before I have to go to work this afternoon. Have a great weekend everyone!
