Notions

Happy Monday! I finally have an antibiotic and have begun to feel a wee bit better. I know you must all think by now that I live in an infirmary with how long we've had ailing residents. But there's 6 of us so one after the other the bug hit and I am the last of the brood so perhaps we'll all be well now for the holidays =)

While I was at the clinic yesterday, hubby went to Big Lots. I need to be on a leash when I go to that store so it's good that I wasn't there =) We must have a faux Christmas tree due to all the kidlets allergies and our tree was well worn out. So... off to find an inexpensive tree the man went. We got a pre-lit tree and even though it's not out of the box yet, I'm sure that it won't make my favorites list!

Then came Melissa from The Inspired Room riding on a Christmas horse to save the day! She posted about a wonderful assortment of lights. I don't know that I'd use the tools but they're unique! Maybe this year, since we have a different tree, the kids will let me get away with not having gaudy lights and ornaments.

The French General has some sweet inspiring holiday notions kits. I'd like to have a few just to look at =)

Or, I could do what I always do and make one of my own.

p.s. Don't forget about Natasha's Virtual Prom tomorrow!

p.p.s. I was just pondering... should I put together a little blogger recipe book? We could all add to it... Imagine all the holiday favorites! Whatc'ya think?
