Hump Day!

What what!!! 

No final for me today. I'm going to campus to get my psych test from last Thursday to see how badly I did. I know I didn't do as well as I normally would. Last week was not the week for tests for me! Then I have to come back and study study study!!!! My psych final is tomorrow and it's a real, cumulative final. It's going to be awful! 

DH decided we should get a real tree this year, which is fine, except we still haven't gotten it!! I almost don't see the point in getting one at this time because we'll only enjoy it for a little over a week before we go home for Christmas, so why not just put up our tiny fake one again? It worked fine last year. 

Do you guys send out Christmas cards?! I've been sending them the past couple years, but we've  been getting fewer and fewer back. I always loved seeing all the Christmas cards my mom would get when we were little.

Re: Hump Day!

  • Good Morning! I went home sick yesterday. I am sttill sick! But I am feeling better. We are having your Christmas get together today at work. I brought in chilli. Hopefully it is good! I am looking forward to all the goodies people brought in.

    We are getting our tree this weekend. We would normally have it up already but do to Mexico things are delayed. I still send out Christmas cards. They are waiting for me at Walgreens right now to pick. I have recieved 7 so far I think. I dislike when family send photo cards with just kids on it. They should send a family shot. I know the kids are the cute part but it still bugs me.

    JLQ: Good Luck on your exams!! You are going to kick butt I know it!

  • You would hate us degrea. Although we've only had ds one Christmas but we did just shots with him. We'll see this year. We didn't send cards before having ds.

    My sil is over helping with the daycare today. She has a 16 month old son who is a bit cranky so it's been fun. 4 babies under 2!!
  • Degrea - Glad you are feeling better! have fun at your work Christmas party! That sounds like a good time. 

    I don't think I'll be sending photo cards. That means having to get pictures taken each year, and I hate having pictures taken. Plus I kind of agree with Degrea - a family includes the parents also, not just the kids.

    Echo - Have fun with all the babies!! Sounds like a crazy day!

  • I want us in the pics this year but were not paying for professional ones and getting someone over to take them is too much organization. Maybe well include one of each of us with ds.
  • And 9.5 more work days till I'm closed for a week for Christmas!! Ya!!
  • I just use the pictures through out the year. So there is one in Vegas, Zion, Arches and Mexico this year. It is easier than dressing up in red and green and getting someone to take our picture. Plus it lets people know what we were up to this year.

  • Mine aren't fancy picture cards. I only did those the Christmas right after we got married because I used a wedding picture.

    I wouldn't call mine fancy, walgreeens isn't exactly fancy! They are lazy.. I don't have to sign anything. If fact I print out labels so I don't need a pen at all to do my cards, Super lazy!!! I use to buy cards and send real cards but than I got lazy.

  • I bought cards last year right after Christmas when they were all on sale and hoarded them for this year. So I have to write them all out and address the envelopes. I did order return address labels, so at least I can just slap those one.
    I just write a generic "Happy Holidays! Love, Jess and Jason" in all of them. hahaha!
