Happy Monday

Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving!

Fingers crossed this week goes by fast as its hard to be back after being off for a few days.

Hope you ladies have a great day and I get the feeling I will be on here a lot today. haha

Re: Happy Monday

  • Happy Monday!

    I sure hope it goes by fast, I had the whole week off and it was amazing!!!!

    Ps does anyone know where I can find real evergreen garland????? I can?t find it anywhere??!

  • Have you checked at any of the live Christmas tree stands?

    I know you can get the fake stuff at Bed Bath and Beyond and it comes pre-lit.

    Since we are asking for help, does anyone know where I can get "cheap" clear cylinder vases? I want to put three of them on my dining room table with Christmas balls in the vases.

    In Brandon on Bloomingdale there is a huge Christmas tree stand (it's way overpriced for trees though!) I'm pretty sure I saw some there. 

    If not maybe you can ask the place you buy your tree from for their trimming and DIY?

  • Hopefully this week goes by quickly! It's always hard going back to work after a long break :-) We did get a ton done this weekend though for the holidays. We put our new tree up and decorations around the house and DH put up all our lights outside(we may have gone a little overboard but oh well haha!) It's also my last week of Fall classes so I'm excited to be done!

  • Boo Monday. Our weekend was SO busy I need the day off to recover! We had a really great weekend though.

    It was super nice to spend time w/ Chris. We've both been insanely busy and we got to just relax(not really), but we got to spend the whole weekend together. I was kind of @ a stand still w/ school since I forgot to order the book for my next class so I didn't have to worry about school until last night. It was awesomeness.

    We put up our Christmas tree, and put lights up outside. Chris was SO excited to put lights up outside. I was a nervous wreck. He was freaking me out the way he started out putting them up. Then he got on the roof and that was much, much better.

    We also bought a few decorations for the house. Yay!

    I will definitely check this place! 

    Where on Bloomingdale??  I live in Riverview :)

  • I work Monday, Thursday, and Friday this week. Bleck. I hate my job. But, on Friday and Saturday night I had an awesome patient and he had a really sweet family, so that helps. A LOT.  I only have 1 night off this weekend (Sat) and then I work next Sun/Mon/Thurs. I am so excited because my mom and sister are coming Dec 10th-13th and we are going to do baby stuff!  YAY!!!

    This Wednesday H and I start our labor and birthing classes at the hospital. I can't believe we're at this point already! :)

    Right past Winthrop plaza on the right hand side if you're heading west.

  • This week really needs to go by fast.  I am so tired!  I didn't really have a great weekend off considering I was sick!
  • Joanna- If the Christmas tree place doesn't have it, you should check with local florists. They usually sell it by the foot. (Or at least all the flower shops I've worked in have.) If they don't have it in stock, they should be able to get it in within a couple days.

    Make it? Wink Its pretty easy. I saw a girl who works at walmart carrying a bag of branches to her car last night. I think she had the same thing in mind. They got in their shipment and trimmed them up before placing them in the water buckets.

    Thanks ladies!
    It may be cheaper for you to buy a small tree and make it yourself? I think Walmart sells them for like $30..... or you could do  what I used to in MD, to the guys selling on the side of the road...."All these trees are so expensive, all I have is $30....I guess we aren't having a tree this year"...lol

  • Lowes has little trees for $14.99 .. but they are pretty little.. maybe 2ft high, maybe 3. I don't know, i'm not a good judge of height, but they are small.
