OK, you get to have fun today. Yes, it is Monday. The US election campaign is supposed to get very ugly for the next month. The world economic news is not great. Christmas is still Christmas! And you still get to have fun today!!

I may read something Christmassy today. I really love reading about my MHH family finding terrific bargains!! And I love reading about them making delicious things to eat! And I love it when one of us hits a bad patch, and others rush to support her!

So, what will you do for fun today? Please share if you get a chance!

My friend and I are going out today to shop and decorate our houses for fall. Hay bales, pumpkins, scarecrows...you name it. We haven't gotten it done yet, and our front porches are screaming..."DECORATE ME !!!!!" She even said, "We'll take my car, and even if we have to make two trips, we'll get it done". I'm so excited. It really is beginning to feel like the holiday season is here. I know it's not Christmas, but it can't be far behind.

I will not let the economy change the family's enjoyment of the Holidays. Planning ahead prevents this from happening.

Off work today, going to take some things to Goodwill, and then go right in the store and shop some more! Looking for anything Christmasy and costume do-dads for DD...for fun will try to watch a Christmas movie, and catch up on my MHH reading! :grin:

The only Christmas fun I'll be getting today is checking in with all my loyal friends here at MHH, which is wonderful I feel cheated if I don't manage to visit here at least once a day. I may get my Christmas Notebook out later when my children have gone to bed, and see where I am up to. Have a wonderful day everyone!

Well, I thought I wouldn't get to have any Christmas fun today, because I had a meeting after work but was at work a couple of hours and came home. Sore throat and such an achy back. Told my boss I really didn't want to leave but she said you look pale and can't really talk so.......... Suppose I will do a few loads and pick up alittle and then craft. I am actually off on Thrusday so might get something done. We are closed next Monday!

Hi Everyone,
I'll be going to the library today to check out some Christmas novels. I tried to read a regular one and it just didn't hold my attention. Too much Christmas on the brain. :grin: I'll pick some books for my little ones as well. I think they are destined to be Christmas addicts, too :grin:

I found the movie, Polar Express in walmart. I thought it would be harder than that. I gave my dgd one for Christmas last year and she lost it. She told me the other day she wanted that so it's a relief I found it this early. :pink:

Today I went to Dollar Tree on my lunch break. I picked a few more photo ornaments for the office tree this year. I'm decorating the entire office this year. It's going to look great. Can't wait to get started.

aggy, I got some of those ornaments last Friday for my children. At DGS's b/d party on Sunday, I forgot to take them for my sons. Now they have to wait till Thanksgiving. :haha: But they are so cute! I got one of each of the three designs!! Love that store!!

Pam aren't they cute. Plus they have a nice weight to them. I got all six - bell, ornament, angel, Christmas tree, sleigh, Christmas sock. I had some already from last year and was hoping they would have more this year. When I saw them I immediately grabbed them because if I tried to go back for them later, they would be gone. :pink:

aggy, they ARE so cute!! But, I only saw three: sleigh, tree, ornament. I'm going back tonite after work to see if they have the others. I bought them for my children, but I think Mom needs them, too. :haha:
