Stayed home to work





What a busy week that was! I pulled a few 13 hour days last week between the office and home trying to get all of our employees enrolled in benefits. There were a lot of hiccups along the way and despite the fact that Friday was the deadline, we have several clients who are still enrolling through next week. By Friday I was absolutely exhausted! I'm trying to catch up on some things today.

Yesterday we did a little bit of last minute Christmas shopping, got haircuts, cleaned up around the house and worked on some of the last minute projects I had to finish. I got some done, but not enough. We were suppose to go skiing today at Beaver Creek, but I opted to stay home to try and get it finished. I'm not so sure that will happen, but I can definitely try! So Dan and a bunch of friends are off having fun on the slopes (although probably freezing their butts off!) and Melanie is at her cousins house having fun! And here I am.....

These are some of the cards I made up for Marcy, my Dad's girlfriend for Christmas. The pictures aren't that great, but at least you can see what I was working on these past few weeks. I hope she'll like them!

Christmas is just 4 days away! On Christmas Eve we will join Dan's family down in Colorado Springs for the traditional Polish dinner of pierogi and stuffed cabbage (can't spell the Polish word)! That's our favorite meal of the year! Then on Christmas day, we'll stay home in our jammies, open presents and just hang out together! I can't wait for a day like that!!

How will you spend your holidays?! Hope they are happy and bright!!!

Hey there! Wow, you have definitely been busy! I hope you get some well-earned rest over the next couple of weeks!

The cards you've been working on are absolutely beautiful! Enjoy your day at home in the peace and quiet :)

Sue! Those cards are B-E-A-Utiful! I mean it, I've never seen anything so remarkable. I admire the fact that you still take you time to do something you enjoy.

Merry Christmas~
