Beautiful!
Pretty much finished the indoor decorating today, but haven't started on the outdoor lights on the bushes. I think I'll wait until Friday so the snow will be melted---it'll be easier to get the stakes in the ground.
The ceramic Santa I bought a couple weeks back:
Thinking of you all, but I have to run now---we haven't even had lunch yet.
Beautiful job on the tree!!!!
Good evening!
Well I'm still not finished decorating, I kept getting sidetracked today. I'll have to keep chipping away at it this week. I did get my living room tree up. Sophia made herself right at home underneath, her eyes look like Christmas lights in this picture. And that little stuffed Santa doll was given to my oldest on her first Christmas, 21 years ago. I still bring it out every year. Anyway, I'm going to turn in. I need to rest up for Cyber Monday, lol.
I hope everyone had a nice day. See you in the morning. Goodnight everyone!

Thank you! Mr. said it looks great from outside the window, too.
Aw, gee, back to work tomorrow. It's been wonderful having a four-day weekend to get things done and to relax a little.

Good evening,
It has been a long day here, I feel like I need a weekend from my weekend.
I was setting up our 6.5' tree and the branches kept falling apart as I was taking them out of the box. So then we went out and checked out the trees at Lowe's, nothing in the size we were looking for all too big.
Then to Walmart, absolutely nothing, all the trees were way too cheap looking.
On to Kmart, found one we liked, but they were sold out, found another we liked but weren't convinced so left there empty handed.
We decided to do some research online, I checked out a bunch of sites, and stores online and finally found the "perfect" tree at Home Depot. So LC and I went down to Home Depot, found the tree, it looked so perfect in the online picture, but in person it was very Charlie Brownesque, looked at others, but too tall or too expensive.
Next, a second Lowe's, same as the first, nada.
Sears, fell in love with one as soon as I saw it, waaaaaaay to expensive as in $419, if I could have spent that much I would have ordered a Balsam Hill, which some day I will get.
Macy's, one tree left, too expensive, and no display models to see.
Kohl's they had two tree styles, I picked one up looked at it, but put it back down. It just looked too sparse.
I decided to swing by Kmart and check out the one we liked but weren't convinced. Finally after seeing the floor model and how full it was and the cool LED lights that blink from colored to white. I finally made the decision on that one. We got the last one! It is all set up, and ready to be decorated, it is beautiful.
So it is November 30, still not done decorating, I work the next 6 days in a row. I will be quite busy trying to get done decorating.
I hope you all had a fun Sunday, my Bengals won, the Patriots lost, thanks Pack.
Good night, everyone.

It´s December!!!! December!!!! Did Ya hear me? IT´s DECEMBER!!!!
I hear ya.
Greetings All!
:cry:
Greetings to all!
I've been very busy cooking and baking to start up my new little business.....my soups are selling, and I have some orders for Holiday baking. Soon I will be providing meals to some of the seniors at my residence!
I just wanted to say I'm sorry I was not on site to wish all of you in the US a Happy Thanksgiving, I was busy making soups, while I watched (partially)the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade which I had playing in the background, but I got to record it for real time viewing later. I miss the US Thanksgiving.......So Happy belated Thanksgiving....hope you all had a blessed time with family and friends!
Now for some disappointing news.....I won't be able to send any cards out this year......I need to watch my budget since I'm starting my own little business, so throughout this month I will send out my wishes to all either through private message or public announcement in this forum during the Holiday season!
My mailing address has changed since I moved in October, so "if" interested let me know in a private message and I will give you my new address!
So with that being said, I hope you all have a great day, and I will try to be on here more often, to catch up on my reading on what's going on in your lives, and chat with you all. Have a blessed day in our Lord.
It's DECEMBER everyone! Yaaaaaay! Oy.....it's going by so quickly.....my head is spinning!
Later!!!!!!!!!!!
:dance:
