10 days to Christmas

So last night I was sitting down to read a bit in my book when my sweetheart asked if I was going to mail out Christmas cards this year. I am thinking in my head that I have plenty of time. Then he lets me know it is only 10 days away. I am like "WHAT?" Then it hit me. Christmas is only 10 days away. So last evening I prepared half of the Christmas cards. Wow! This year has gone by way too fast. I had to thank him for reminding me because I truly thought I had a lot more time to go.

Patchy Pants

I have a pair of pants that I use for gardening. They are old and soft and the denim is worn so that they are finally feeling comfortable. You know, where they are like an old friend. I LOVE MY PATCHY PANTS. I would wear them everywhere except that I would embarrass everyone I know. Well. The bottom on these patchy pants has worn out. Holes huge holes. So I took some fabric that I love from my fabric drawer and put patches on my bottom. Hence the name Patchy Pants. They are adorable. How many people can say that they have butterflies, Christmas angels, Christmas teddy bears, and more butterflies on their rear end.

Patchy Pants rule!

Family Talk Plan

So this last week has been filled with a family talk plan.

On Monday, December 6, 2010 Little Dude called and we talked and laughed for over 1 hour. It was fun and I hope he calls every week like we discussed. I have missed talking to him. He is doing very well and enjoying the job corp. Learning painting of roads and taking paint off etc.

Talked with Lil Sister and family and had the pleasant opportunity to talk to each of the children. I love that!

Talked with Mom and Dad on Saturday and enjoyed a fun conversation.

Talk talk talk. I might be all talked out but then again is that really possible for me. Um, I don't think so.
