It feels a little bit like Christmas....

Post by Jamie.S

Only 7 more working days left until Christmas day,Yay, I am so excited. Unfortunelty i am in retail so i work Christmas eve and boxing day. One day is just not enough to properly celebrate, but i will take what i can get. At least i get that one day. 

My husband works Christmas eve and Christmas day this year, only 7am to 7pm. So he still gets to spend the evening with us, And open his prezzies. He is also Gluten Intolerant (he swells up when ever he eats even a little bit of it. And it seems to be getting worse) so as he will not be joining us for the Christmas dinner my family does not have to worry about cooking a whole bunch of different meals for him. 

We just put our Christmas tree up early this year, like the first week of November. I love a decorated house, and always find the house to feel so naked after the holidays are over and the decorations are taken down.

Here is my tree feeling much more like Christmas now it has presents overflowing from underneath. 

I have now officially finished my shopping. And i can now sit back and relax. aaaahhhh

Let the countdown begin!!!!!

Busy Bees

Hey, so it has been quite some time since myself (jamie) or my sister amber have actually posted anything on this blog. We have been rather busy, and i have always forgotten to take pictures of the few craft projects i actually get round to making. 

Amber has been better than me, she has started her own blog that covers everything she loves, she shares her inspirations, recipes, tutorials, fashion, beauty and thoughts. And if you haven't  checked it out yet, you probably should skip on over there right now and have a read.

You may be wondering why we have been so busy, Well many things have happened. Amber and her fiance Rich have moved into my basement. They are getting married next summer...Yay!! and they need to save up as much money as possible  For the wedding, and for there dream house. So pumped for there wedding!! I am the maid of honor. 

        And about 8 weeks ago our mum (sally) had a black out and fell down the stairs in her house. Luckily my dad was home and was able to call an ambulance right away. She was in alot of pain. Turns out she shattered her hip and had to have a full hip and joint replacement OUCH and she broke her right elbow, Double OUCH! She was in hospital for a full 2 weeks and just had her cast removed 3 days ago. She is still in alot of pain. 

If anybody has broken their elbow before and has any tips, advice or stories please share with us, as my mum would love to be able to hear from other people who have gone through the same experience. 

        I have also signed up for distance education. I have decided to take the institute of booking course at red river. I have 9 courses to complete in total until i can get my certificate. I am only on #1 & 2 out of 9. Word 2007 (super easy), and financial accounting 1 (which i am strangely enough really enjoying).

But we are going to really make an effort from now on, to keep the blogging up. Well at least Amber will for sure. lol
