Brief Update

Nothing exciting has been happening around here. We got a couple inches of snow the other day. Our road was completely covered but the main road was fine when I went to work. Our road is still covered in spots today. D's been having fun making his car slide around on it (men!).

We hung some garland on the front porch today. Its lighted but we haven't figured out how we're going to plug everything in yet. There aren't any outlets outside so we'll probably have to run an extention cord inside (but we do have an old phone jack on the porch; go figure). I got the tree up Saturday night and put one strand of lights on it tonight. I need to put one more strand on and tie the tree to the wall before we start decorating it. The cats are already messing with the tree so I hope the tree can last until after Christmas. Boots demolished my first Christmas tree by himself. Now he has 3 partners in crime to help him.

I can't get into the holiday spirit anymore. I used to love decorating for Christmas and now it seems like such a chore. Last year, I didn't do any decorating at all. I got a little more excited about it this year since we have the house and all but I think the excitment lasted a day or so. Just call me the Grinch.
