YAY, DECORATING! :)

Sooo... today we were in Walmart buying stuff the kids need for school (and a desk for my bedroom... since my office does not have a door, it can't block out kids and/or noise..... so, I'm going to try having my room set up as a study area. :-) ). Anyway, while wandering thru Wally-World, I noticed all these fall decorations they have already set out. It suddenly dawned on me...."Heeeeyyyyyyyyyyy............. I have a HOUSE now! I'm "allowed" to actually...*gasp!*DECORATE!!!" :-) So, I bought one pack of fake fall leaves, and have scattered them throughout the house on end-tables and such, and taped them to the door frames between the living room & the kitchen, and the living room & the hall to the kids' rooms. It looks like they are "falling" down the door frames. Or at least, that's the idea. :-) Next (sometime in late september or early October) I wanna get a couple of the little scarecrow guys (they are like $6.97 each) to put on my front porch - one on either side of the door. And I saw some other neat fall decoration things, too. :-)

I know, you're over there going, "Hey, it's still summer - it's AUGUST!" (not to mention, it's 100 degrees here in GA, still) BUT...the kids went back to school on August 1, and I start college tomorrow night, 8/20. If we are all back in school, that can only mean one thing: IT'S FALL, DARN IT! :) Regardless of what the calendar or the temps say - school = fall. :) So there. :)

oh goody...and after fall... CHRISTMAS! I get to decorate our very own real house for CHRISTMAS!!!!

Where should we put the tree? HMMMMMMMMM.........

Happy Rainy New Year's Eve

Well, it's raining & pouring here in Loganville-land... somehow, today doesn't seem like Sunday. Of course, we all totally overslept today and didn't make it to church, oops, so that probably has something to do with it.

No big new year's plans this year... we might stay up and watch the new year's show, or we might not, remains to be seen.

No grand resolutions here that I can think of -- just, as always, to somehow manage to get through another year. :)
