A few things I must do today...

I can't believe that I didn't make a post at all yesterday! I promise, one is coming, it's on my to-do list, right after loading all of the pictures I took of the Christmas tree onto the computer. Once I have the pictures, I'll make the post. But I have a lot to do today. First of all, I need to get some wire, some branch cutters, and some ribbon and make our family's Christmas wreath out of the branches my Dad cut off of the Christmas tree. Second, I need do some house cleaning - we spent all day yesterday moving furniture around, and then getting the tree set up, decorating the tree, and now the tree looks great but the house could use some tidying. Third, I have a few presents to wrap and make pretty so the person I'm giving them to will be distracted by the pretty-wrapping job and won't notice how lame the gifts are. Fourth, I have to go shopping with Becca and Rob to buy a present from the three of us to our parents. We know what we are going to get, we just have to find it and hopefully we'll have enough money between the three of us to get it. Fifth, I have to get my Mom a present. I know what I am getting her, it's just a long process of finding the main part of the gift, bringing it home, choosing the things to put in it, and then taking those things somewhere to get them printed, and then bringing them all back, putting it together, and wrapping it. Have I confused you enough? Good. Sixth, I have to finish decorating the house - and I have to put bows on the driveway gate and on us kids' doors. Somewhere in all of that I have to take a shower and take some tylenol because my head won't quit throbbing. Boo hiss. Oh, yeah, and I have to make the post about the Christmas tree, with pictures and all. Excellent. Talk to you then!
