THE HOLIDAYS ARE OFFICIALLY HERE!

It is crazy to think there is less than a month till Christmas when I am really not in the Christmas mood yet - probably because we went on our yearly vacation in October which messed up the whole year going on your vacation in the fall, anyway. I listened to classic rock while putting up my Christmas tree (is that weird ha! ha!) I have my work Christmas party this Tuesday, which again it doesn't feel right. I am excited for Christmas this year because it could be a Christmas like no other - my parents are coming out and if the weather is good we are planning on going to Malibu to visit my brother Joe & his wife. Christmas always feels different when you are not home (but much doesn't go on when you don't have kids - just a cat to give presents to) I guess we will just have to open presents early. It will be nice to get away from the cold for awhile - I am not enjoying the cold this year and it hasn't even gotten the coldest it will. I am also stumped about what to get for Christmas this year everything I thought we could use has gotten nixed by Nick who says we can't afford it - Pool Table (Can't Afford It), Surround Sound System (Can't Afford It), besides that I have no idea what we could want or use - so it doesn't matter we won't be in town for Christmas ;)
