Okay, so what happened to the endlessly loading friends feed? I liked that change! Ah, well ( Read more... )

Had a pretty lovely day so far! Received Christmas cards from astronewt and danceinacircle! Removed snow from our driveway and walks. It snowed most of today--just lovely light falling snow that made everything pretty. I attempted to make a snowman and discovered that I don't know how. We opened our lovely package from elyssa and stevieg--hooray! Now we are watching Sunshine ( Read more... )

It's time for some Christmas celebrating in our house! We're actually keeping it pretty low key this year, but I do have a few surprises in store for Rick--mostly food ones.

I'm shocked that I didn't update my LJ, but sometimes it just slips my mind. I've been more active on FaceBook lately, but LJ is my internet home. I can ( Read more... )

Today I completed all of my Christmas shopping for people at work. Next up is family shopping. I feel like I'm already behind ( Read more... )

Did a little bit of holiday shopping tonight. I am buying presents for everyone who works at my library. This is 42 people, so I had to find something affordable. I'm also trying to stay very close to a "winter" theme and not a "Christmas" theme, as I know there are some people who don't celebrate Christmas. Anyway, Walgreen's has some pretty ( Read more... )
