So I set up my Christmas tree on Sunday (I will post pictures of that later). I enjoyed every minute of it. My husband actually volunteered to put Christmas music on so it would be more festive for me. The favorite part of all this is not only spending time with my husband but also opening one special box. In this box is tacky little ornaments. But they are special. 95% o them were made by Curtis' Great-Grandma. They consist of many crocheted items dipped in wax to make them firm. Little angels, fans, teddy bears glued to washboards, you get the picture. But without theses decorations, it would not be OUR tree. And I love OUR tree.... tackiness and all.

I have been to curves a total of 5 times since I got the membership. How sad is that. I once again make excuses for myself that I just dont have the time. Yet months ago I was challenged by a personal trainer friend of mine that she knows people who work 50 hrs a week and still have time for the gym so I have no excuse. So rewind, I dont go to the gym because I am lazy! But I have been eating better and am getting more inspired to go to the gym as I had to do my belt up one notch skinnier which is always encouraging.

I am super excited for my 3rd Annual Christmas Extravaganze is a party that I traditionally now do for all of my friends since I do not see a lot of them through the Christmas season. THis year we are doing a "bring an appetizer/dessert and a christmas item to exchange" thing. I am excited. Lot less work and a lot less clean up for me and Curtis.

Anyways, other than that nothing else is new. We are dog-sitting right now. Some moments it makes Curtis was a dog, others it does not. I want a dog. PPPLLLEEASSSE Hunny.... his reply... silence.

So... I have been going to Curves for the last week. ITs alright. Not exactly what I would chose for a gym due to the lack of options but its definitely a routine kind of place. A lot of ladies need to learn what a sports bra is. There is nothing like seeing an oversized woman's breasts flopping around everywhere. It is somewhat revolting actually. I have been going with my friend Patti who lives upstairs. She is awesome to go with. Although the 6:30 am thing has a little to be desired.

Been looking at houses online. Kinda fun. Find a few I like and then they sell or get taken off the market. It is kind of sad when that happens. My dream, and I dont care what anything else really looks like, is to have a nice kitchen with an island. Always wanted an island in my kitchen. The place we are renting now would have been perfect for one. I want my kitchen bright and sunny.
I guess I do care what other things look like as well. I am lying. I want a nice sized bedroom where all our stuff can fit in the bedroom and not have to put something in the living room. Im tired of being squished and always bruising my leg on the footboard of our bed. UGH!
AndI would like to have somewhat of a back yard. One where one day when we have kids they can run and play all in the safety and comfort of their back yard.
I want a living room that is cozy and inviting. The kind of place where you just want to snuggle under a blanket by the fire with a hot chocolate.
Then Curtis wants his "media" room. Basically a place where he can blare music without anyone getting mad... what he doesnt realize is I probably still would be made if I came home to a house with blaring music. Can't stand it.

Anyways, I really did not have much to say. I live a pretty boring repetative life.... work... sleep... eat....work....sleep....eat.....pull my hair out.... work.... sleep...zzzzzzz
