    Are Lego advent calendars real? Or did make that up? When Henry is older I think those would be fun. 

    If there's not already, you should invent this.  I like the idea!

    Seriously.  I'll pay you to you make up a Duplos one.  Hehe.  ;)

  • Happy Friday everyone! I have to work tonight and tomorrow from 3-9. Other than that, not much going on here. D&M, I answered your question really late yesterday. Yes, we are landlords, but not by choice. When we got married we both owned houses. So mine is being rented out in GR.

  • Love the Lego Advent idea. I also think a Christmas puzzle with a piece in each day would be fun. Not starting a calendar until at least next year.

    Ah, I see.  Did you jump straight into renting it, or did you try to sell it first?  How long have you been renting it?   Is it something you want to do forever, or are you waiting for the right time to sell?  :)

  • Work is bringing in a "cash cube" today during lunch.

    Wish me luck that I get picked to go in it.  Ahahahaha.  This is going to be funny.

    Straight to renting. Knew it would not sell for anything close to what I owe. It has been rented out since July of 2010. Ideally, we would like to sell it when the time is right. But goodness knows when that will be! Good luck with the cash cube. If you get picked we must see a video or pics. MUST! Haha

    Awesome!  I won a $30 gift card to Darden restaurants (Red Lobster, Olive Garden, Longhorn Steakhouse) in our gift wrapping contest.

    What was your gift wrapping contest? Based on speed or creativity? That sounds like fun!  

  • Half the office is out today.  I'm hoping that we'll be able to leave at 3:00 today.

  • Warning:  bodily function story below...but is a short comment.

     

     

     

    So we are sitting in the LV RM and DH gets up to look out the front door and this happens...."Sneeze, burp, sneeze burp". We both looked at each other and burst out laughing.

    You had a partner, and you could only use one hand each to wrap the present in 2 minutes.  Basically what we did was lock arms, me using my right arm, and my partner using her left.  We had the least crappy looking present.  LOL.

    Congrats on your gift card too!

    It's slow here today, I would looooove to leave early.

  • Outdoor decor....Done! Inside to start and finish tomorrow. I'm glad I did decorate it helped lift my spirits.  

  • I feel like I don't have any positive comments today. I think this on and off cold is taking it's toll on me.

    Really well! She woke up at 6am, took some meds then went back to sleep till we woke her up. My mom said she did have a break down today though. :o(  The doctor said she should be doing better by the end of the weekend.

    It's not looking good.  My boss is super busy and frazzled, and the big boss is in the office now.  Darn.  I was hoping I could hit Target for eggnog and Christmas lights before 5:00.
