The Christmas tree is decorated and now awaiting the arrival of my oldest son Joey and his girlfriend Erin!! I am so excited! Joey will arrive at Bradley Airport in Hartford CT. on Friday evening followed by the arrival of Erin on Tues. Dec. 27th! Can't wait to have them both here for the holiday! All the presents are wrapped (mine are anyway.........Cher has yet to start :), but that is her, last minute Kate....she usually waits til Christmas morning to wrap before going over to her parents for Christmas to spend the day with all her family. Last year I helped her wrap ahead of time, and I plan on doing it this year too! I love to wrap, so it will be fun!
The snow is still on the ground and will stay here til April I am sure......more predicted on Christmas Day, don't know how much yet but we will see. If we do, it will be pretty, as the snow that is on the ground now, has gotten all dirty from cars and people. It is so pretty when it has freshly fallen.
Tomorrow is my works company Christmas party...........of course I think now to be politically correct we have to call it a Holiday Party........long story but there has been alot of.........should I say "discussion" on Christmas this year.......what to call it as not to offend anyone. It is still CHRISTMAS, Christ's birthday and know one can take that away no matter what!! You can't take the CHRIST out of CHRISTmas.....and that is just all there is to it!!
Anyway, back to the party.............the company has the food catered.....which is nice.......usually with all other events everyone has to bring a covered dish. It will be nice to have someone else make it. Also we do what they call here a Yankee Swap, now that is fun.......we all exchange gifts by picking out a number...when your number is called you have to pick out a gift that is located all in a pile in the center of the room. It's fun and we get some good laughs out the of the reactions of others.........seeing what they have chosen. Some great gifts!!
As you know I made my own Christmas cards this year, well they are all done and ready to be given to my co-workers with a little "surprise" inside.....and something on the outside too........don't want to say right now just what it is, cuz some of my coworkers read this blog and I don't want to give anything away.
Well that is about it right now......
Update on Cher's terrible cold........she took Zicam and it is something! She is so much better now after 4 days........I recommend it to anyone! It shortens the length of the cold and the severity. It is wonderful!!
Will write again soon................til then............MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! (got that everyone! )
