89 more sleeps - why does that seems soooooo far away and yet like not enough time already? I just started planning my birthday party, which is two weeks before Christmas, and have to start planning...

Rainy, windy and 11 C.

I have two worst gifts.

One was the dreaded kitten sweater that I recieved from my ex-husband's grandparents when we were first married. It was hideous, and as I believe that the only pets...

I love putting up the tree. My son and I usually do it all in one day. We do it together and really take our time oohing and aahing over all the ornaments and decorations and reminsicing about...

What I'm really excited for is a ceramic tree I was given last year. In the 60s and 70s housewives made these ceramic Christmas trees as crafts. They have little holes in them for coloured glass or...

I can't stand the upside down trees and the non-Christmas decorations too.

I have to admit though that in my downstairs powder room I usually have a small pink feather tree and a pink rose...

We always have a White Christmas, well, almost always a white Christmas. A few years ago we had our first green Christmas, that just happened to be the year my son got his first "big boy" toboggan...

We have cool nights and hot days now - plus I saw some leaves already changing colours.

The family that lives across the street from us are Muslime, and they put up lights this month for Ramadan - I love it!!! It's like Christmas in the summer, but, you know, Ramadan instead.

taking a break from the Christmas cards - one benefit of seperating from my husband is that I am no longer obligated to send cards to his family, it's cut my costs by almost a third :yahoo:

One of my girlfriend's is having the same problem so what what her and her husband have done this year is to make reservation at the resturant of one of our city's best hotels. Neither one of them...

My entire apartment is already decorated. Our Thanksgiving Day is in October so we wait until after Remeberance Day (Nov. 11) to start decorating. But I brought my 8 year old to see Santa yesterday...

I only send out paper cards. I send one to everyone in my family and all my close friends. I just think of how excited I get everytime I open the mail box and find Christmas cards in there. I hope...

Okay, the the christmas boxes are all up from the storage room - this weekend is all about getting the lights and decorations done for the balcony - I know it's just a balcony, but we like to...

I decorate m bathroom too! And I'm Canadian too! But very confused - is it a Canadian thing to decorate bathrooms for Christmas? I thought it was just me 'cause I go a bit over board when...

We open eachgift one by one and takethe time to appreciate what each person got and to thank the person who gave it to them. We really try to draw out the present opening.

Well every year since I was three I've asked for a pony or a horse. I started leasing one this year and if someone bought him outright for me that would be the best present. I've also asked for a...

My favourite part is when the house is decorated, all the shopping and baking is done and it's only a few days before Christmas Eve. This is when my little guy and I cuddle on the couch watching...

My little guy is home sick today and we are watching Bah Humduck - the Bugs Buny spin on a Christmas Carol. Poor kid. :sad elf: But he's just like his mom, when he's feeling crummy, he likes to...

Usually I spend about $1200, but as this year is the first since I split from my husband I'm bugeting for half of that. The hard part will be to not go over board shopping for my son - I want...

I love Dylan as much as the next person and I'm curious to hear his Christmas album, but it's kinda striking me as a little on the weird side that BOB DYLAN is releasing a Christmas album - am I the...

I got:

You Are a Fruitcake!
You taste like nothing else in this world.
And get ready, you're about to get tossed!


I think I'm the first one lol!

I have always loved Rudolph. It will always have a special place in my heart - but when I was little I was terrified of the Abominable Snowman - I used to run from the living room and hide in the...

Well, today at lunch we started talking about the work Christmas party - so exciting!!! I'm planning it this year as I usually do and I get so excited about it. My co-workers must think I'm nuts...

Next week I start shopping...I usually wait until November, because I kinda like the crowds at the mall, but this is my first ear as a single mom and I want to make sure I spread the money around a...
