The ULTIMATE CHRISTMAS / HOLIDAY THREAD.......

**iwannabeminnie** · 12-07-2006, 07:10 AM

I spent three hours last night wrapping gifts and I'm not even half way through them. Mr. iwbm assured me that if I didn't buy so many I wouldn't have to wrap so many. I'm wondering if he would like to be the first person struck from my list?

Hmmm, great idea

but, 1) I have no time to do that and 2) my DW wants us to have one of our wedding pics for our Christmas cards

As long as I'm not the first person struck from the list I don't care!

I want that spoon rest!

At least you have 3 hours worth of presents bought to wrap!

I'm so far behind it's ridiculous!

I agree with Jen!

hmm let's see...There my house is not decorated at all..nahhh ..rather than the trees outside with the other gargantuan decorations, my house is covered in plastic trees, decorations of presents, christmas cookies and candy, santas, reindeer, snowmen, snowflakes, mistletoe, lights..did i mention trees? Yeah..not into the decorating mood at all..

Now I'm just wondering when we are gonna put the REAL Christmas Decorations up..

**mini-V** · 12-10-2006, 05:56 PM

House is decorated. Cards are in the mail. The two gifts I have purchased here are wrapped. The two gifts I sent to my daughter have arrived there. I made one batch of shortbread cookies. We've attended 2 parties last week, and have 2 more this week. The turkey and the ham are in the freezer. But, the house is a disaster!!!!!!!

If I'm close enough to you, I'll drive up to 3 hours to meet you. hehehe And I'll bring my axe.

Three hours from Abilene would put you somewhere on the east side of Dallas. I can do that.

**SnwhtNdwrfs** · 12-10-2006, 10:39 PM

We can meet at a steak house but I"m not using the A1! I know what you do!

Maybe this can work out-- It would be fun to meet you in person.

**PumpkinJack81** · 12-11-2006, 08:23 AM

We received our wedding pictures in the mail on Friday!!!!

Which means after work today I'm going to make copies so we can start sending out our Christmas cards, yay!

I just can't get caught up. The tree is up, the outside lights are done, the village houses are out, but no lights in them. Man, and some of you are wrapping gifts already!?
