Hmmmm

I happened to get in a car accident in mid December..Not Hurt Just mad!!!! My wonderful Subaru smashed front and back!! All because a stupid girl decided not to stop.....Anyway, I could not wait to get my car back. I got a rental but HATED it. Just about the time my car was being fixed it started to snow and didn't stop. Christmas Eve my car is ready..let me tell you I couldn't finish work fast enough. I go get coffee it's nice out... no worries. I go out the next day it's snowing like crazy so lucky me I have a rear window windsheild wiper! I turn it on and what the hell...It is cleaning my license plate and not the window!!!! It's on backwards! I started to laugh and drove right to the collision place and talk to the "guy". He starts laughing and fixes it with a "well, now you have a really clean license plate!" I LOVE my car!

The Village

Another fun thing at Christmas is putting up my Dept 56 Snow Village.
Every year I HATE lugging all the boxes from the basement and vow we can do without the "village". Every year I (and whoever is nice enough to help) spend a couple of hours putting it together. Every year when it is done I LOVE it until I have to get the boxes...and always ask can't we just leave it up??????? Thank you to my helpers.
We hide a flamingo...Can you find it???? I'ts not the Big one by the motel! Take a peek
p.s. it might help if you click on the pictures to enlarge them

Christmas Cards

I love this time of year. You don't always keep in touch with people but at Christmas I usually get a card, email, letter or phone call from them. This year I decided to make my own cards. I think if you receive a card it is extra special.Just an I was thinking of you moment.I won't show the mess I made just a few of the results.The more wine I had the more creative....:0)
