Shipping off the cards |
Last night I went to my company Holiday Party. It was fun. I sat with friends and ate good food and had a nice pomegranate cocktail. I was convinced I was going to win a door prize. I didn't but two of the people I met up with did. I got over the disappointment by reliving the IU-UK game in my head. (You can do it for reals
through this link.)
I also watched two Christmas movies this weekend (Love Actually and Four Christmases) AND the Lifetime Christmas movie (
12 Men of Christmas starring Kristin Chenoweth). So this is what I've gotten marked off my list thus far:
|
Yes, that's tape holding it. |
- Listen to nothing but Christmas music on one commute home. (did it twice, actually)
- Give a gift to a stranger. (bought Christmas dinner for a family at our local Ralph's)
- Make a Gingerbread house. (pictures to prove it!)
- Put out at least one holiday decoration. (IU Santa is now a lucky charm)
- Buy something tacky just because its seasonal. (Snooki. That's all)
- Watch a Christmas movie. (Love Actually --totally counts--and Four Christmases)
- Send holiday cards. (In the mail)
- Give a gift to someone without expecting one in return. (Donated a toy to our local CASA)
- Read The Santaland Diaries by David Sedaris. (Technically listened to it on audiobook but I realized while listening that I had actually already read this.)
- Attend a Holiday Party. (Last night's work party).
- Watch a Lifetime or Hallmark Holiday movie (counts separately from one above). (12 Men of Christmas--it was. . .predictable)
- Make puppy chow (and give most of it away).
- Buy something that smells like Christmas. (Peppermint Holidays candle--not exactly peppermint but much better).

No. A Child did not make this. It was a grown adult, but it was my first time, so lay off. |
Chef and I are wondering how long the Gingerbread House will last with the cats around. At least I have photographic evidence that I did it.
