My living room is turning into a freaking forest! More and more Christmas trees seem to be taking up residence there! First I bought an odd red cone-shaped tree and a spiral lighted tree at a WalMart post-Christmas sale, now "the estranged one" brought me a fiber optic tree that he found on sale somewhere, because he knew that I liked the one that his mother has. I find myself sitting here, being mesmerized by its pretty lights!
Have a peek at the forest...
It's a shame that the camera just can't seem to capture the pretty fiber optic lights.
I am still feelihg the love at work. I collected three more Christmas gifts today. Two of them had notes attached, apologizing for their lateness. Better late than never, I say. Besides, the true Christmas celebration lasts until the Feast of the Epiphany on January 6, so technically the gifts aren't late!
My pants are falling down! At first I thought that they might be an older pair, so I checked the size tag. They were not, they are a recently purchased pair of size 8s! I guess that the next pair of jeans that I buy will have to be a size 6. I can hardly believe it. I haven't worn a size that small since I was in junior high school. I think I'll celebrate with a cookie!
My friend, Pam, stopped by tonight. We ordered a pizza. While we waited for it to be delivered, she started cleaning my house. I can now see the top of my vanity. There's hope for this slob yet. We plan to do some more cleaning while I'm off work next week. It's so much better to do things like that with a friend. I love her, really, I do!
