I like the notebook idea, but I am not sure I will be able to find a Christmas themed notebook. Might as well search for it

Good morning every one

Today I woke up late, but it is okay, because I don't have a headache today. My boyfriend tells me to stop looking for the exam results every day, for he thinks it will drive me insane, and they won't come this week... So I am trying to get calm and do some nice things. My mum is going shopping in Amsterdam today, maybe I should tag along and have some coffee with her. My mum is the best person to have around when you want to calm down!

Hope all of you have an amazing day !

Whoops , somehow I hit a button and my post went up without me finishing... so as I was saying, Im in the Life Skills room today. The room is huge and there is a kitchen and even a dining room, / living room area in it. They have the tree up , and they have the TV on, turned to the Cable company music channel . Guess What folks .... Theres Christmas Music Playing !!!!!! How Awesome is that ..... :
Gives me a warm fuzzy !!!! Have a great day all of you!!!
Be back Later , Oh Kerstig, I didnt find a Chruistmas themed notebook either but I went and got some Christmas themed paper , and some stickers that are if the Grinch. (Found em in the scrabook section), I decided that I was going to make a binder and decorate my own with the stickers and make my own themed notebook. How do I set the notebook up what do I address in it etc?

Wow, I can't believe how many posts were made since my last post. I know I don't post on here that often though. Thanks everyone for the congrats and prayers about my job. I just hope I wasn't premature in saying that I got it. I am the kind of person that doesn't take anything for granted. Until they say it officially and I am actually working on the first shift, I won't fully believe it. I just wish they would announce it and get it over with, I don't know why it is taking so long. Kinda frustrating.

Yup,if I were to ever make a New Years resalution it would be to not live so much in the past. I've always done that even when I was a kid.

That looks delicious!!!! Can you freeze chocolate, maybe a dumb question. But I have way too much Christmas Candy here. Hershey kisses holiday versions etc. :

We have successfully frozen chocolate. (We still have some Halloween candy in the freezer, waiting for the Christmas candy to be finished.)

Good Morning, Folks.

Onward we move into the week, the month and the year.
Onward, ever onward, to Christmas Season 2011!

Days to the Season: 313
Days to Christmas Day: 355
Looks like we are starting to close in on that first Milestone of 2011!
As you will note, we have now moved under 2 weeks off from the 300-day Season window.
That first psychological barrier, moving into the 200's, will then have passed.

Cold once again with my thermometer reading 30 degrees at this hour.
We reached 45 yesterday and are supposed to top out at 54 today before cold weather returns again with a vengence by Saturday, when we are not predicted to get out of the 30's all day.
BRRRR!

Have a Terrific Tuesday, Everyone.
Don't forget the 'Pines tomorrow. First open house of 2011!

Thanks for that video! =)

Hey everyone!

I'm sorry I haven't been around. My Hubby and daughter were sick last week with a sinus infection, and my son now has the flu. I'm keeping my fingers crossed no one else gets sick. I had a bad cold the week before Christmas, so I think we should be through with the illnesses for a while. We have had our share.

I hope you all are well and are having a wonderful 2011 so far. I believe this is going to be a great year!

TTYL!

I hope you all get better soon!

Don't stress but I understand where you are coming from. Your boyfriend is right and hopefully you can stay busy with other things in the mean time. Good luck to you!

Sounds like a great and rewarding career!

I had a delicious grilled cheese today. Besides the cheese, it had tomatoes and chopped up celery.

If you are a big fan of grilled cheese, hop on a train and go to South Station in Boston: Cheeseboy in South Station

Good Morning Everyone!!!! It is going to be a busy day here. I am going to replace the brakes on my neighbors van and then I have to go pick up my niece so she can stay the night at my apartment. Her sister has a doctors appoinment at 8am tomorrow and I didn't want to get up at 6am to to get to my sisters house in time to babysit her there. It helps out that she is in the afternoon kindergarten class. Well I am off to get dirty. I hope everyone has a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!

We use a green "window" binder---it has a clear plastic sleeve over it. Choose a Christmassy color, or print out a Christmas picture to slip down behind the clear plastic.
