Its the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

So here I am, wrapping presents in the comfort of my room (which is absolutely freezing!!) welcome Tbay winters..ugh so cold, but anyway I'm wrapping presents and listening to christmas music and I couldnt ask for a better night:)

I have been horrible this year! Why is it I just can't seem to get into the Spirit of things yet, we have no decorations up at my house yet which is SO not NORMAL for us! We always have our stuff up within the first week. Busy lives make enjoying the hoidays soo difficult! I have no time to do anything between work and school and exams, I barely find time to see family friends let alone spend a WHOLE evening at home putting up christmas stuff! But I have made a goal and I am going to sssssslllloooooooowwwwwww down and begin to enjoy the holidays as of ToDaY!

My favourite part of the holidays so far have been my Sunday night shows going Christmas. For any of you who don't know me my favourite reality show on the face of this earth is Extreme Home makeover and just this past weekend they started the holiday editions and they were awesome! For any of you who don't want to forget what the true meaning of Christmas is please watch next Sunday 8pm central and tune in for the new holiday Extreme Home Makeover. I saw the previews and I couldnt keep the tears out of my eyes! One little boy shows us that even when you think your life is hard to handle, there is always someone who is worse off then you, and he does his best to help out those less fortunate when he is struggling with a disability himself (insert corny sigh here) *sigh* :)

Anywhoo I hope everyone is enjoying their holidays so far! Fa la la la la! Merry Christmas and everyone, and remember, take my advice, slow down and really enjoy spending time with the people you love this season it goes by way too fast!

Twas the Month Before Christmas...

Well ladies and gentlemen its here! The official start to the Christmas season is upon us! Its Decemeber 1st and that means in 24 shorts days it will be christmas...where the heck did 2010 go!?  Anywho I look forward to this month every year because Christmas truly is the greatest season of all!

Spending time with family, buying gifts, decorating the house, watching Christmas movies, volunteering, I LOVE it all! Even the way people act during this season is different, I find people are often friendlier, you can strike up a conversation with a stranger in the store and it's comfortable.... I love walking through the decorated malls packed with people, arms loaded with bags, I love the rush and commotion of it all!

This christmas season I have vowed to make it extra special, as my last FULL Christmas season in Tbay I have a lot to pack into 24 days but I'll do it! I wish everyone a season full of holly and happiness!
