Holiday Decor

It is that time of year when everyone is going crazy trying to decorate, bake cookies, shop and wrap presents.  Oh and don't forget the Christmas cards. I have found that if you want to enjoy the holidays just do the one thing that makes you happiest. I have decorated the mantel and the outside with the bare minimum this year and yet it has surely made me happy.  It makes me feel a little Christmasier. I do miss the white tree with the pink ornaments but it is not what makes the holidays. It is spending time with the ones I love. SO Merry Christmas to you and yours!!!!

Naval burial

Well our fish Berta died. Hubby was kind enough to take care of the burial so that I didn't have to worry about it.He flushed it down the commode. He called it a naval burial.  I cried because we had that fish for over a year and a half.  It was a female beta.  Most beta fish don't live that long. At least the neighbor kids beta's didn't live that long. We won't be getting anymore fish for a while. Fair well Berta....

I am my mother's daughter

I couldn't wait to open a present and I have already used it. The Dyson vacuum is the BEST!!! It pulls the wear areas up and makes it look like new. Holy Cow. I wish I could have gotten one earlier. I think anyone who has even one room with carpet needs one of these babies!!! It only took half the time to clean the carpets and they are so much better than with my old vacuum. It weighs less and does such a good job.  I give it a 5 out of 5 stars *****!!!! I kinda want to vacuum again tonight....

christmas in the mail

I got both of my gifts from hubby today.  I got an air purifier. (for his allergies....ha ha) I also got a new Dyson vacum cleaner!!!! I can't tell you how excited I am. I am also thinking of wrapping my gift to open later but I really want to open it and use it. Hubby didn't know I would be here when it got delivered. He is still sleeping so I hope he isn't disappointed  that I know what my gift is. I think I will wrap it so he is surprised. I have been complaining about the vacum cleaner that I have and have always said that I wanted the Dyson but thought they were to expensive. Guess he was listening and thinks I am worth it!! YIPPEE!!!! Happy cleaning.....

Lions andTigers and BEAR!!! OH MY!

What's that you say Bear?  I have the cutest little fur ball visiting.  He is a shadow following me around. He likes his morning belly rub and chase the neighbor dog. He likes his chicken cold as well as his wet dog food. He doesn't like it when I leave the house or when hubby puts him down so he actually has to walk.  Go figure. I wouldn't like to walk either... I am enjoying my time with the best dog ever!!!
