Time is running out for shopping

Christmas will be here soon and I am so not ready! Jim is a sweetie and so patient while I run around in circles lamenting and stressing. The Trees are in there stands in the Den and in the living room but they are not yet decorated. Jim did put together the porch decoration -three lighted gift boxes. Our very first Christmas card of the season was from The Crow Family in Hawaii. David is assigned there as Navy intelligence and we hope they will be back stateside soon. I hope to write our annual Christmas letter soon. It will be more difficult this year because we all blog about what is happening throughout the year so there isn't much left to write about. I guess I have to remember that lots of my friends and family don't read the blog so to those who do I hope the letter won't be too repetitious.

Victoria and Michael celebrated their anniversary and that always reminds me of the snow & ice storm the day of their reception. It was such a wonderful day and so many friends and family braved the weather to come and celebrate with us. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

It really pays to buy the extended warranties sometime (I know that Clark Howard might disagree). The PT Cruiser was in for service and I am so happy I didn't have to pay for it.

Saturday my friends Melinda, Carol, and Cathy enjoyed the Heavenly music of The Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols at Emory and Sunday we traveled to UGA in Athens for the Irish Christmas with Eileen Ivers, fiddler. We all were definitely in the Christmas Spirit after those events.

More later, be kind, Sue

"Christmas is coming...my mom is getting stressed! Please to put a penny on her Visa account. Please to put a penny on her Visa account!"

Great news that you didn't have to fork out a lot of money for repairs.

I'm glad the music was fantabulous and Eve is looking forward to decorating your trees.

I think you have made good choices on what you have done. The other stuff will get done in time.
