Looking Ahead to 2008

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. I am writing out a list of goals for 2008...not resolutions but goals. That seems to work a bit better for me. We had a great 2007 and many of our goals and wishes came true. I know 2008 is going to be even better. When Dave gets home from work, yes he had to work today, we are going to Mom and Aunt Lynn's to ring in the New Year with them. Love to all of you!!!

We had a terrific day at Mom and Aunt Lynn's house. Here are some of the presents they gave us before we unwrapped them.

Christmas Countdown

Hustle and Bustle

My hubby and I finally finished our Christmas shopping. We did a lot of online shopping but had some gifts to get at certain stores. Now we just have to finish wrapping. Next year our goal is to be organized and finish most of our shopping in October. It would be so nice to sit back and enjoy the month of December instead of running around and stressing. Another thing about last minute Christmas shopping is that people on the road at this time of year seem to forget how to drive. The courtsey of drivers is at all time low. So here's to Christmas shopping in October.

No Gold Star For Me

I have been a bad, bad blogger. I just noticed I haven't blogged in over a week. Shame on me. Like I have said before I'm going to try harder to post more often. We will see how that works out. I have been writing out our Christmas cards this evening. I know some people hate the task but I don't. I think of each and every person as I write out their card and about past and present memories. It helps if you have Christmas music on or a good Christmas movie on tv. That makes it feel all the more Christmasy.

Shopping and Mail

I love, love online shopping! It's so easy to sit in front of your computer and browse and buy. You can be in your jammies, all comfy and drinking a nice, hot cup of coffee. What could be better? The other great part of shopping online is when you get the boxes delivered to your door or somewhere near it, hehe. I am a mail, UPS and Fedex junkie. It gives me a natural high to get stuff in the mail. It's a thrill to order things and I also love getting surprises. Well, I'm off to do some online Christmas shopping. Ah, no standing in line.
