Getting Ready For Christmas

I'm not really ready for Christmas, but the holiday will come whether or not I have the halls decked or the cookies baked. I have almost all my Christmas cards sent out and only one package left to mail. I guess I'm not as far behind as I thought....



I'm working this Saturday day shift with Mellissa anda Kristy, our new operator. It's been a fairly quiet day, as work goes. Duane is home...he's either putting up Christmas lights or sleeping in....50%-50% as to which he's doing.....



We'll be at Ann and Brian's house for Christmas Eve and Day...except for the hours I'll be back here at work. Brian's Mom will be there too so the house will be full. Aceley will be 3 this year so hopefully she will be up and excited early.



I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and A great New Year!!!

I am probably the WORST blogger ever- 6 months between posts....sorry!


I LOVE the Christmas holidays... the Carols, the lights, the trees, the cookies, the colors...everything about it. I also like to see is going to send me the first Christmas card of the year. It used to Du's aunt but she's now in a nursing home so I need to get her address and be sure to cheer her up this year. I'll be getting on my cards soon. I'm also sending as many as I can to soliders in Irag and Afghanistan...I need to get those mailed this week...


I worked on the hospital Switchboard for 10 hours on Thanksgiving so I'll be off for Christmas this year. 5 lovely days in a row off. I'm really looking forward to that.... I also got to spend time with my teenage niece after Thanksgiving- she really helped me out with a computer project I'm working hard on. I'm so glad one of us was paying attention in Computer Class...


Another project I'm working on is a fundraiser for a family who's 10 month daughter has been diagnosed with retinal blastoma. Kelsey K. is the cutest baby, and her smiles will light up your day. There will be a movie fundraiser at Cinefour Theatre in Logan. It's Saturday, December 12th at 10 a.m. (doors open at 9:30!!!). The cost will be $5 and there will be a special concession deal that will benefit Kelsey and family. We're also going to have some donation jars set about for those who want to contribute their spare change to the cause. If you can join the family (and see a movie or send the kids) please do...It's for an awesome cause...
