Back to School

Oh what fun I am having today :-) I am in school! I have had a piece of software at work for months that I had no idea how to use. I had tried.......but to no avail. It was so different from what any of us were used to that we (really that means me) just didn't use it. So here I am.......for two very long days.......sitting in a room with people I have never met staring at a computer screen and a projector screen watching an instructor while he very quickly moves his mouse around the screen and while talking very quickly. Talk about brain overload.

I was already in overload mode before I ever got here. We only just got our tree up on Saturday. (I usually have it up right after Thanksgiving.) And I have only gotten three presents wrapped so far . As for Christmas cards........................I usually make mine. I finally started them last night......I have about 8 done...............and I don't like them. I may just end up buying cards this year. But on the plus side.............I am almost done with my shopping. Yippee!!!! I have to say, that if it wasn't for Emma I probably would not even mess with a tree, decorating or cards this year. But I really don't think that there is anything that would keep me from buying presents. That is one of my favorite parts of the holiday season. Besides loving to shop and buy things, I love to give presents!!!! Yippee!!! I really can't wait for Miss Emma to open her gifts. She is so excited about Santa coming.

Well, I guess I need to go pay attention. Maybe while I am sitting her "learning" I can come up with a new idea for some quick holiday cards.

I found a lady who scrapbooks locally on the blog world. Her url is http://aprilfoster.blogspot.com/. Also click on Studio Calico. Maybe they'll have some holiday card ideas.

Won't it be a great Christmas for our girls as they are realizing what fun Christmas can be. Allison is so into the holiday season. Yesterday in the car she told me she wanted to hear Holly Jolly Christmas (song). Too funny!

YUCK to the school! I am surprised that as talent as you are, I would have thought your Christmas card would have been done and ready to be mailed the day after Thanksgiving. I am sure that with your creativity you can come up with something wonderful. Good Luck and Merry Christmas!
