snowy days again

Christmas times a'comin ! and it's snowing again! let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
but alas, i don't think any time off from work will come from this little snowfall, it appears it will be more of a nuisance than a blessed vacation. ah well, it's okay.

it seems that once again the weathermen have missed the boat on the forecast for winter. they predicted that we would only get 15'4 inches of total snowfall for the ENTIRE winter, and so far we have had 10 plus what will fall today into tomorrow, which should be another 4 inches or so. with that being 14 inches, i guess we are already near the target amount and the official winter solstice hasn't even arrived.

i have been Christmas shopping and i am excited and happy! everyone should be so happy opening their presents this year ! i still have a few gifts left to buy for a few people. i have no idea what to get for these last remaining people, that's what is making their shopping so difficult. i guess i'll figure it out. i have decided to stay away from gift cards and cash because i'm committed to having presents to open this year for everyone.

so our Christmas tradition is changing this year. normally we have a huge Christmas breakfast out somewhere then we come here and open all the gifts and then eat dinner at 12 noon. but with everyone having their own in law obligations and what not, "we" decided to have our gathering on Christmas eve. i'm not sure how i feel about that. it breaks up our tradition of having Christmas morning all together, but i know that it needs to be that way because everyone has their own obligations ...

ah well........... my boy is here!!!!!! so peace

post note yayyyyyyyyyy it's a beautiful day !!!!!!!!
