Susie's Notes and Pictures
Well, it’s two days before Christmas. I’m getting ready to leave out of town and I am not dreading the family time this holiday around. I can’t wait to walk into my mother’s house and to be welcomed by Christmas music and the smell of holiday treats! The family time on this in particular holiday is splendid. It’s time to be cozy warm by the fireplace, watch Christmas movies, and drink hot chocolate!
I have almost finished my Christmas shopping! I’m sure my credit card companies love me, along with my family. They have all gotten some pretty sweet gifts this year. My family and I have decided for me not to cook. I love to cook but this year I get a break. So as long as I bring the gifts and the cookies I will be a hero! Bring it on, Christmas!
So my friends have been asking me what I want for Christmas. After much deliberation I have decided that I want anything Elvis. Ever since I was a child I have always loved him. So of course I got online to see what new Elvis merchandise was available and I found a wonderful Elvis alarm clock. So now I know what I want. Maybe Santa will bring it for me.
As we all know, Christmas is a time for cookies! Sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, and gingerbread men! Every season I do tons of baking, my favorite food, cookies! So far I have made six dozens of cookies and I am just starting the second week in December. I think I might start a business.
Now that I have started the shopping for Christmas I have found some great things like the Wii in red. I was going to buy it for someone I knew but now I think I want one too! I may just keep this one. They are moderately priced so I think it will be enjoyed by a lot of people this year!
Soon after I put all the decorations for Christmas up my prelit tree decided to stop working! So I had to find a new one and fast! I jumped online to see if I could find one. I had been in the Bass Pro Shop earlier and saw a tree that was great! I had to have it! I found the tree and bought it right away. Not long after that I had my tree. So now it’s up and prettier than the last one!
Okay, I decided that decoration was first on my list. So I pulled out the old decorations from last year and I realized that my stockings were missing! Decoration for Christmas require stockings! So, it took me two days to find just the right ones! Now the house is beautiful and I can get back to the other stuff.
So Christmas is coming up now and I just can’t wait to get in the hustle of the holiday! I have three weeks to complete a long list of things. Should be fun, wish me luck!
