Christmas tree

Posted Yesterday at 04:50 PM by Chuckles

Today is DH's day off so we put up the Christmas tree. That is one of the things I DO want to do.

In a really good mood. Feeling peaceful and happy.

Decided to start a blog

Posted 11-30-2008 at 07:38 PM by Chuckles

I have never done a blog before, but it sounds like an interesting thing to do.
The Advent season has officially begun. Sometimes I get distracted from the purpose of Christmas with all the busy activity and stress, but I am not going to let that happen this year. I have decided to "do Christmas differently" this year. DH and I are exchanging gifts of "monetary value" with each other but no one else.
We are giving photos that we print out ourselves as gifts to family...

Sad tally

I got to thinking after I posted about my friend Erick committing suicide that death has hit our correctional facility hard lately.

June 1st Dan dropped dead of a heart attack he was 42. November 17th Tommy was killed in a freak accident on his bush hog he was 38. Now Erick commits suicide and if I remember right he is about 38. So in just 6 months we have lost three. It blows the mind.

My nephews wife did a very cute thing, she bought t shirts color coded for each family- we all wore them at dinner - ( not that its a huge family but it was fun). They have "14222" "Elmwood Village" on them which is the zip code we all grew up in/lived in- except my younger DS who has never lived in the city!

Down in the dumps

Posted 11-30-2008 at 10:14 AM by Angileyze1

Last few days has been a bit depressing for me. On one hand I am excited that the days are melting away before our trip. On the other hand, I am freaking out as to how its all going to get paid for in time. So, I'm freaking out just a bit. Luckily, DH is going away for training soon (National Guards) and he will be paid well. I should be easily able to put 800 towards the trip. Hopefully more.
