Brrrrr! It's cold! Our low last night was around 17 degrees. (I know, Mom - you are a lot colder, but...I'm a valley girl now!) And I'm ringing the bell for Salvation Army tonight at Big Lots! I'm going to freeze! AJ was supposed to be helping me, but he is still sick. He really doesn't need to stand around for 2 hours in the freezing cold!

I have still been procrastinating about Christmas stuff! Because I am on vacation next week, I have put everything off (except the actual decorating) so I still need to do my cards, do the sewing projects, do my shopping, bake cookies for gifts, etc. I did start my Christmas Letter to put in my cards, but that is about as far as I got. Good thing I do have time off!
