* It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in my world…because there is no more money in my bank   You gotta love it!  There are a ton of little ones in my life and they need toys   (I asked Santa for good football and he gave it to me early!  Yay!)

* Other than gift buying all over town, I have been buying items to make special treats for everyone.  I am mostly making rum cakes this year.  I might squeeze in a boxed brownie or two though  

* It’s not too cold where I am, but it is cold enough.  This brings a good feeling to a lady who sweats 90% of the year (shhhh, we’ll keep that fact to ourselves).

* My lights are up and Miss Lextra Dirty gave me a pre-lit tree I put up outside the house.  I have yet to put my tree up inside but I will shortly.

* Well, i’m off to wrap, sort, and enjoy the holiday season.  I’ll post a pic of the rum cake when it’s done!  Happy holidays everyone!

* Oh! And I’m watching Elf right now…Again…Happy Holidays!

We have a pumpkin carving contest at work today.  Since I work in the internet technology department (and we are hated ) I submitted one for IT that is eating other departments.  It’s a stereotypical IT nerd with glasses.  I think it’s cute and funny.

The second picture is of the IT pumpkin and my other house pumpkin.  The IT pumpkin actually looks nice compared to the alien.  Scuuurrry!

Happy Halloween Everyone!
