BABY IT'S COLD OUTSIDE!!!!!

Well, the update is that it is VERY cold outside! Winter is here. Right now it is snowing and we expect about 6 inches or more by 3:00AM. Luckily I have a vacation day tomorrow so I don't have to get up and drive in it (unless I decide to drive Susan to work so she doesn't have to drive in it!!!) That will all depend on whether or not Matt has school - if he has no school, I will drive Susan to work. We'll just have to see what happens.
Our tree is up! This is a record. We usually get it up a couple days before Christmas. I have MOST of my Christmas cards done --- just a few stragglers to finish up. I keep saying I may cut back on my Christmas cards, but then I look at the list of names and I don't ever get to see so many people who were important in my life and think it's the only time they hear from me, so I still send out about 50 cards or more. I just think it's important. I'd like to get so much done this weekend, but I always have good intentions!
What's new since my last post????? Chuck & Deb moved!!! Janet moved!!!! Linda moved out - but I don't think that is new! I guess it's been a month!
We have several birthdays in December
4th - HAPPY BIRTHDAY JANET!
5th - HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMMA!!
10th - HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRENDA!!
12th - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOM!!
28th - HAPPY BIRTHDAY DICK & BETH!!!
I don't have my "Important Dates" calendar in front of me, but I know Brigette's birthday was this week too! I am probably leaving someone else off . . . but my memory isn't as good as it used to be! I'll have to find my birthday sheet and update later!
This week seemed to bring some bad news too. I went to the funeral home for 3 different people this weekend! Mrs. Marge Ialungo who was our next door neighbor the entire time we lived on Garling Drive!!! A friend of mine's sister-in-law passed away - she was only 65! Lastly another friend of mine lost her father. It's never a good time to lose a loved one, but the holidays are the worst!
Other than all that, it's just work work work! We are going to have our yearly Christmas lunch with Katie (step-mother) on the 22nd. It is always nice to see Katie.
I think the rest of the year is going to be very very busy, so you probably won't be hearing back from me any time soon!!! Hopefully in January I'll have some quiet time to do some writing (assuming I have something to write about!).
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!!
