First bite of Christmas

This year I must admit, I haven't even started to feel the least bit Chrismas-sy.

Got most of my cards mailed, except for those I figure I'll see sometime soon. And we have gotten some shopping done. But we still don't have the tree up, and I'm starting to wonder if I even want to bother. I sound like such a scrooge.

I did buy something though...

I will admit, I'm a sentimental fool. Plus, I thought the snowflake was just to friggin' cute.

I decided we needed a tree ornament to commemorate our "first married Chrismtas".

Hubby asked how much it cost. I smiled sweetly and said the secret to our happy marriage is him not knowing how much things cost, lol. This is a line he had already used last weekend, when we were browsing for a new dining room set. Once we narrowed things down, he told me to drop him off at home first - saying the key to our happy marriage was him not knowing how much money I was spending. I did drop him off, but I went home without making a purchase. I saw some kitchen table & china cabinet sets I liked... I just don't know if I *loved* any of them. And for those prices... I really want to love it.

So that's about it for now really. Not very exciting!

Can't wait for holidays! Next week is my last work week! I have 5 days off in a row, go back for 1, then am off for 5 more. And then I start my new position when I get back!!!

Ok, that's really it for now...
