Quick post

In the spirit of Halloween,,, I’ve changed the look of this blog for a while.  I tend to do that as the occasions come up.  I’ll no doubt do this again when Christmas is on the way.  But don’t worry, I won’t change it that early.  I’ll want till the middle of December for that.  There’s nothing worse then seeing Christmas decorations on people’s houses and yards right after Halloween.

It’s bad enough that the stores has it.  One isle is Halloween, and other is Christmas.  Yes, I like shopping early for Christmas just like the next person,,, but give it a couple of days at least.  I know that Christmas is just around the corner, I don’t need the stores reminding me every time I go in to pick up a couple of things.

I just as soon leave but I can’t.  It’s like everyone is so rushed to get it up and done with, there’s no joy in it anymore.

Anyway, before I go off on a rant,,, I better head off.  I do have things that I need to get done.

Until next time,

A New Year with New Beginnings

So, we are 3 days into the a new year and it’s looking pretty good.  We’ve got snow on the ground, there’s a chill in the air (ok, more then a chill,, enough to freeze the balls off a brace monkey), and I’m enjoying my semi-quiet day.

It’s 1:20 in the afternoon as I type this, though, not sure what time it will be when I end it, LOL.

It will soon be time to start taking down the tree and putting away all the Christmas decorations until next time.  Some people took theirs down the day after Boxing day.  Mainly because they’ve had things decorated since NOVEMBER!!!  Make no friggen wonder you want to take it down right after Christmas.  I’d be bored with it too.  I don’t get why people have to put it up so early.  I mean really???  December 1st is bad enough, but November???

Usually I put ours up after my hubby’s Christmas party at his hotel.  But this year I stuck it out until close to my birthday.  If I had to wait for hubby’s Christmas party, the tree wouldn’t be up until tomorrow.  Yes, I said TOMORROW!!  The hotel’s party is TONIGHT!!  January 3rd.  I’m sorry,, THAT’S NOT A CHRISTMAS PARTY when you’re having it AFTER Christmas is long over.  What’s the friggen point to having a party now to celebrate all the work they’ve done all year???

So needless to say, we won’t be going,, at least I won’t be.  If hubby wants to go for the sake of making an appearance, then he can, but I won’t be.

Anyway, on to much lighter thoughts,,, 🙂

I want to take this time to thank more of my friends for being there when I need them.  Sandra and Angie.  You girls are awesome and I hope to meet you both some day, ❤ .  Melinda, what can I say that I haven’t already said? ❤ ya girlie.  Brian, you are the best non-boyfriend a girl could ask for, LOL.  Roddy, you’ve been such an awesome supporter throughout 2014 and I thank you with all my heart.  Jan, I wish you much success this year and hope that all your dreams come true.

Let go of all the negative things weighing you down, and reach for all the positive things.  That’s what will make you shine.

❤
