What do you want for Christmas?

Snow Day!! Snow Day!! Just got the call and am very excited. Maybe I'll get my tree up tomorrow and my Christmas cards done. Or perhaps I'll sleep a lot like all of you guys :-)

So here is the challenge this week. Please give me an answer to the following gift questions:

1. What one gift do you really want this year and know you will NOT get?
2. What one gift do you really want this year and you know you WILL get?
3. What one gift do you not want this year and you know you will be getting?
4. What one gift would you give and to whom if you had all the money in the world?
5. How many gifts do you actually buy with your own money?

I am a bit old for expectations of gifts and truly just want to have my family together. I know...old, old, old! But I am very excited that my daughter is coming home from Florida and for a few days we will be together as a family. I love family.

So, enjoy your day off and don't do too much. I probably will be a hermit as I have been today. I have only been outside once today to walk the dog for about two minutes. Tomorrow will be the same, I am sure. Have a great snow day and I will see you all on Tuesday.

Love those days off!

So, it is true...I forgot to blog yesterday. I am not sure why because I remembered earlier in the day. Oh well, good thing we had a day off so that I could get this blog completed. I truly love days off!!! I do get a bit lazy though. That is Ok, right?

So, what did you do on your day off? I slept in (9:30!). I know that isn't very late for you guys, but very late for me. I got my Christmas decorations up in the house. Not the tree, but everything else. It is true...two weeks to Christmas and I don't have a tree up. This is usually the case. I like Christmas, just not all the "stuff" you have to do. Plus my tree sits in the middle of the room (well almost) and takes up so much room it is hard to watch TV. I wanted to get a smaller tree this year, but my daughter had a fit. She is 23!! She loves Christmas and doesn't like to change traditions. So, I got the rest of the stuff up and my house kind of looks like Christmastime now. The Christmas music is helping me get into the Christmas mode.

Well, besides laundry that is what I did on my day off. What about you? Oh, I also have to run concessions tonight at the basketball game that is on for some odd reason. Guess the roads are better now. I am not too excited to venture out, but duty calls. Maybe I'll be able to see part of the game tonight just for Brad!!

Have a terrific week!!

What kind of weather is this?!?!?

So...for all of you that did blog last week...Black Friday is called that because it is the day that stores feel they are "in the black." Meaning that they have sold enough to make a profit (no longer in the red). You know big sales!!

I must commend those individuals that worked hard and got our projects finished on time. Kudos to you all! I have graded all but the posters and they look pretty good. Lots of hard work going on around here. It makes a teacher excited and proud. So, for those that did not get finished, that is a very sad thing :-( Now let us move on to Photoshop. I love Photoshop. Hopefully, everyone will enjoy this.

So what is up with this weather. Last night it was FREEZING and blowing and sleeting and snowing and just crazy outside. Tonight it is much warmer and it is raining and has been most of the day. Plus, where did that fog go that I saw earlier. I could really use a fog delay, can't you? I don't think we will get a day off, but a delayed start sounds good to me. I want to know...who likes it cold and snowy and who likes it warm and sunny? I suspect most like it warm, but there are many that just love that snow. Let's take a vote. Here is one vote for warm and sunny (but not HOT).

Have a marvelous week and remember to keep blogging!! :-)
