Approximately how many hours per week do you spend watching television?

depends on what is on...and what I'm doing couldn't give an amount

The kids put up the tree on Sunday... while I was sleeping on the couch... they left the star for me to do... (its a new star) turns out that it wouldn't fit on anyways... when we first got the tree the top of our tree was way long...so we bent it over...the angel kept wobbling about on the long prong ;)

sooo we tried to straighten it.... well Dave did anyway..but the best we could get it was at an angle and the star looked like a shooting star..it was funny...so Dave bent the top of the tree back down and i modified the star with a bit of transparncy and glue and silver glitter.. now it fits and doesn't look too bad..

This year we've gone blue and silver...just need to get some more silver tinsel and maybe one more pack of balls.. you can never have enough balls I guess..

Bought some nice christmas tea towels at Harris Scarfe the other day... they were marked at $8 but scanned at $4 ..and a nice silver bowl for about $3 in Lincraft...bought some christmas lollies to go into the advent calendar and some to go into Mrs clause's apron (mrs clause is something I decorated when I was into ceramics, she's about 2 foot hight) and some into the new silver bowl..

ohhh and we got The DVD the other day...and yes our ugly head are on it..luckily I'm short and you can only see me a little bit..but the back of my head is in it quite a bit..lol

bleah

I feel like crap...my throat is all sore and feels gross and my nose is runny and I just want to go back to bed.... thanks Em !
