It's Over (boo hoo) **sob, sob** my Christmas vacation is over. Tomorrow I go back to work and I wanna stay home with the kids and the husband. Not fair (stomping foot).

I had such a nice Christmas with my family and enjoyed reading about my cyber-friends holidays, as well. We had so much fun on the 25th (it was a morning full of surprises for each family member). Everyone got something they weren't expecting so I feel that the only thing left for next year is sticks and coal in the stockings.

I completed the gift for my friend in N. Dakota. I will get pictures when it is done drying (yes, it is felted--I said felted, not fulled so purests can have something to bitch about. It is felted to me; it sounds better and makes more sense, so that is the term I use). I started on a little sweater for a charity and I picked another charity to make a couple of scarves for. I also got a box together to send off full of 4 hats and 10 scarves for some kids in Arkansas. So my 25 things is adding up.

We hit a few shopping malls yesterday and I must say it wasn't near as crowded as I thought it would be. We had to return a game that was full of many deep scratches and it didn't hurt that along the way Hot Topic was having a killer sale and so was Michael's. I also picked up a book for $1.99 full of nice photos for some postcards I'm making for PostCrossing (see sidebar if interested).

Okay, till the weekend, my friends. Have fun, stay safe and brace yourselves for 2006!!!!
