Hi Wendy,
Christmas pared was great but I didn`t get to see all the floats, we where on teh Noelville Rental one, so it had snowmachine that was decorated on it and 2 X-mas trees with lots of ligths all over it. Didn`t get any pics because it was at night and it was snowing too like crazy. Other people said that whole thing was awsome, teir was over 20 floats in parade and that is lots for small place like ours. Santa float was realy nice so was the fire departments, they where pulling train engine float behind the like in the movie Polar Express, it was lots of fun. We are going to have some of the family here but not all, mine are in Hamilton and they have their own thing, Daves kids will be staying in Sudbury with in-laws for Christmas, they don`t want to travel because we had lots of snow storms in our area and it`s not safe on the hwys. One of mine daugthers is comming up with her fiance on Boxing day, her son is staying with us for X-mas break, she will only stay for a day and go back, we will bring him back after New Years to Hamilton since I have doctors appointments on 5th & 6th of January. They are just my regular check ups. Haven`t done no shopping yet, kids usualy get cards with money in them, Dave has got his already from me, he needed some things for his work, so will be just picking up stocking stuffers this weekend. Dave will get me something for sure, it is also our wedding anneversary.
Hope your sister makes it.

your so wellcome, artsee... yes I am done for most of it... gotta be ready for my kids xmas is on Sunday Dec 21st.. just have to get my hubby some stocking stuffers... I wish you & your family a Merry Christmas & Happy New Years..

Take Care
Cindy

Congrats on your win..I finally got the area rug I won..looks great..now I have to really take care of it as it`s worth $759. Let`s see how long that lasts. lol My parenting class gave me a cute knitted pink outfit for the baby at our quarterly baby birthday party(for all the babies that have been born) . Little things like that start to make me emotional. Haven`t cried yet though.
My husband gets in his moments wondering who I`m chatting to as well when I`m on divine. I think that worry is in all of us.
No where near ready for Christmas. I think I`m unfortunately going to be a last minute shopper again! Hope you enjoy your Holidays:o)

Hi Wendy happy to hear that you are into the holiday spirit...Frank used to be like Larry at one time...seems his ex used to go behind his back and buy buy buy without even telling him,,so he always felt left out..well when we got together we decided we would talk about what we wanted to buy for the girls and go from there...it`s worked out well although he does seem to spoil Tina somewhat more,,,maybe because shes the youngest and also he feels closest to her.We still have his 2 girls and their children all 7 of them and then Barb ,,my oldest and her son ..my grandson Nathan to buy for...but its going to be a little tough seeing we don`t know what will happen to our furnace now...Frank has to work the whole Holidays right through till new Years..so it will just be tina and I ..guess I`ll be taking him dinner to work..well do what you can for the girls and make sure you`re NICE to yourself too..hopefully things will come together here with all the stupid house expenses now ..but I will make sure everyone has a little something and of course dinner and I will do my full Traditional Hungarian Christmas dinner..so glad to hear things are going good for you...just remember you`re #1 and your girls too...even though we love our men they can be silly at times ..so worry about yourself and the girls first...enjoy yourself with the family and tell Larry we all just live once ...dead for a long time...I know what it can be like with Frank ,,I keep having to remind him I`m not his ex...Glad your all feeling better..and look forward to chatting again soon..TAKE GOOD CARE and i hope I will talk to you before Christmas....
Your pal
Annie

hi wendy, i am glad that you are feeling better, cold fx is a herb that you can get at walmart or any where , it helps you fight that cold and flu , you might want to ask your dr first because of your health , my mom will not take anything and she took this so that has to be pretty bad if my mother took this stuff. hope you are feeling better , it is -25 here and we have been getting the odd snow and i have had to break trail so that has not been to bad yet maybe 5 inches to the most at one time , it is supose to snow again this weekend so we will see , heidi is doing ok she likes the snow , she puts it in her mouth and looks at you , see it melts it is cute , she has a warm dog house we have put a heater pad for her and banked up the sides with snow , she has a blanket and she does not like to be in the house for very long time she gets to hot . have a great evening and take care and talk to you soon.

Everything`s good thanks!! And you? Done my upgrading classes at school until mid January so that gives me a bit of a break to get the house organized. It`s difficult since we have no storage space and only 1 small closet in the entire place. We are trying to throw out things. A couple of boxes and bags I hadn`t unpacked yet of older clothes, decorations etc I told my husband to throw out before I see it and change my mind. lol I started to feel better about 3 weeks ago after the Dr. prescribed me some heartburn meds since that is what was getting me ill. Baby is going to be a girl if you didn`t read so we are pretty excited:)

Hey Wendy,,,gosh glad your feeling better,,,and what a time to be sick,,how are you cooping,,hope all is OK,,,
Me shop...LOL I actually did a lot online, and had it shipped right to Ashlee`s house in Alberta which ended up saving me lots of money,,,shipping to an Alberta address got me outta paying the PST..
I didn`t really get much yet,,,cause the girls know I hate shopping and know I also hate wasting money,,,so will buy them what they need when I get there,,,David and I are hoping to leave for Alberta around the 20-21st ,,and stay until the 28-29th...I gotta work on the 30th...
Anyhow,,,my day off and I have some chores I gotta get done,,You take care and get lots of rest,,,(((HUGS)))
