For Christmas, Amber cross stitched me a lovely scroll that reads, “Don’t make me call my flying monkeys.” Today, while in GT Boutique, I found this tshirt. I’m crazy about it!

…if you’re from Casa Disco, that is. We celebrated Christmas in the Ottawa Valley. Tomorrow we embark on a Christmas/New Year at the in-laws, then on to my dad’s for some  more cheer. In August, we go back to the Ottawa Valley for a “Christmas in August”. I’m supposed to be wrapping, adding finishing touches to handmade items, having eggnog, finishing the laundry and packing. ha ha ha I guess I’m a little Christmaspooped. So is hubby. We’re all Christmaspooped in our house. We will all drag our pooped-out butts out of the house and excitement and anticipation will hit once again when we hit the magical 401.

Merry New Christmas Year everyone! lol

This year, since I didn’t really have much of a wish list, hubby was kind of on his own to figure out what to get me this year. He bought me a Citizen Eco Drive (this is the watch). The watch that is powered by light. Natural or not. It never needs a battery. It’s water resistant. It’s casual, yet dressy. I’m awful with watches. The battery runs out – then I just never wear it again. I’m not one for changing batteries. lol I now have the perfect watch. I love it.

Other items that I received this year include:

Mason Dixon Knitting

Son of a Witch by Gregory Maguire

Fiskars Wire Jig Kit (it’s so awesome! I’ll post pictures of it soon.) The Fiskars website doesn’t show the kit, but on their wire tools page you can see what is in the kit. In it is everything from Wired Pliers down. Mom and Amber also got one! So exciting!

silky jammies

5 pairs of warm/Christmas socks
