Last Day of Work

Today is my last official day of work for the year!! Although I may come in over the break to scan some course evaluations... Christmas is one week from today! I've got 90% of my shopping done! Just have to wrap the prezzies!

There is lots of snow out there and more is on it's way tomorrow! So, I'm thinking we are going to have a White Christmas!!! We are not heading down to FL this Christmas to see Scott's parents - flights were insanely expensive - but we will see them in February in Palm Desert, CA - so we will have a late Christmas with them then. So, we will be spending xmas in Bowmanville and in Peterborough with family and friends. Then we may drive down to NY to visit John & Alix!!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone if I don't get a chance to see you during the holidays!

Christmas Time is Here!!!

I know it's Christmas time because...Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is on tv tonight and more importantly, my neighbours down the street have erected their neon PEACE ONLY Dove Sign!! I love it!! (see my old post http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/500/574/1600/IMG_0087.jpg)

My Christmas shopping is well underway!! I've got over half of it done! Just a few more to go and it's only December 3rd! This Christmas we are staying put in Ontario - we will not be seeing Scott's parents this year - but will see them in Palm Desert, CA in February! Flights to FL are stupidly expensive during the holidays! ugh....

My dad's surgery went well, he got to go home last Thursday and next Thursday I am taking him to get his staples removed. He seems to be on his way to a full recovery. Hopefully, he has quit smoking for good - although last night I had a dream that he was smoking again already!!

This weekend we are hosting our Annual JSP Holiday Open House...so I've been busy getting ready for that - will post some pics from it next week!! Pic Wood will not be in attendance this year, so my remaining garden gnome is safe for another year!!!
