Good Morning All,

Hope everyone had a good weekend.  Mine was all right.  I didn’t do a whole lot, but I did do some things.  I got my new countertop electric mixer so I had to try it and I made gingerbread cookies.  They came out really good.  This was the first time I had made them so it was an “experiment”.  I even decorated them to make them look like little gingerbread boys and girls.  It was so fun!  I also made this “Watergate Salad” it is so yummy.  My mom made it for Thanksgiving, it was so good, I got the recipe and made it too.  It’s kinda like a fruit salad.  I also made chicken taco/taquito things.  They are so good, you use a red sauce to drizzle/pour onto the top of them and then sprinkle cheese and guacamole and sour cream (if you so desire)…they rocked.  I brought some for lunch today.  I also did a little Christmas decorating around our house, worked on my cross-stitch ornaments and played pogo.com.  My boyfriend was on nights all weekend so I had to be quiet during the day while he was sleeping, hence I did most of the baking, decorating etc…at night while he was at work.  It was fun. 

Other than that, not a whole lot is going on.  We ordered a new bed – mattress, boxspring and frame – and that should be delivered today, I am super psyched about that.  Also hopefully some of my Christmas Presents that I ordered should be here too.  I bought my Christmas tree permit last week, so on my boyfriends’ next days off we are gonna go cut us a tree, that’s always fun, cuz then we get to decorate it!  YEAH!

Found out my co-worker’s husband may need to get a heart transplant…that sucks, but they won’t know for 2 weeks what is going on because they are waiting to hear back from the lab results.  She is a nervous wreck today, rightfully so.  Poor girl, she’s had a really tough year.  Hopefully all works out.  They could use a little Christmas miracle this year. 

Other than that, I have a pretty busy week ahead of me at work and home.  I have to finish my Christmas Cards and get them mailed out.  I also have my Christmas Party this Friday for work…that should be fun.   Plus other crap like paying bills and cleaning house…ewww. Well I better go so I will chat at ya’ll later.
