Almost Christmas and I've purchased exactly one gift (not including Josh's gift for his work gift exchange). This is typical of me waiting til the last minute, but we won't be doing much more gift buying due to finances, but that doesn't matter too much to me. I'm not big on presents anyway.

We got our Christmas cards in the mail yesterday, just a few for relatives that really don't get to see the kids. Got those addressed and mailed out last night. This is the first year I've done cards and I think I'll try to do it every year.

I cut Michael's hair last night, first time I've done it solely by myself. It didn't turn out too bad, but of course their are those bad patches cause he moved. Oh well, thankfully his hair grows quickly!!

I have an abcessed tooth which hurts like the dickens. We don't have any insurance until after January 1, so waiting for that to get it fixed. In the meantime, I suffer. Some days it hurts, some days it doesn't. The thing that kills the most is when one of the boys unknowlingly whacks their head against this particular cheek and hits my abcess. OUCH!!!

We now have our itty bitty Christmas tree up, along with some lights around our window and door on the inside. mostly because the lights burnt out in the light fixture in our dining area and we just keep forgetting to buy new light bulbs. ooops! but at least it looks pretty, right?
