9 more days? i cant wait!

did anybody else read this book growing up? it was one of my favorites! i wish i could find it in stores now, but sadly its been out of print for quite some time Y_Y
well ive mailed all my cards, ive decorated the house and the tree, im almost done with gifts, most of them are ready to ship, all i really have left to do is bake cookies and wrap mitchs gift! ive watched all the christmas specials - the grinch, rudolph, frosty, mickeys christmas carol - and ive been listening to the nonstop christmas music station back in ohio online. i even got mitch to wear a santa hat! (see how thrilled the kitties are to be a part of this? lol)

i wish like crazy mitch and i could be home for christmas with our families, but we have to take what we can get, and at least he isnt working on christmas anymore. we will be able to have a nice relaxing christmas as a couple, and im looking forward to it :)
