Happy beginning-of-the-holiday season! I love Christmas! I love the songs, decorations, gifts, traditions, church service, and so on. I like to put my tree up the weekend after Thanksgiving. This year, it has taken longer. We're using the artificial tree this year. My son helped me put it up last Monday. I did the lights two days later, and I did the ornaments this past weekend. I'm waiting for my husband to put the treetop on.
We used to have an angel on top of the tree. Well, actually, we still have it, but we started using a star two years ago. I think the tree we used when I was growing up was a glass finial. What do you use at the top of your tree, if you have one?
New topic... Friday as I was about to leave work, I felt something in my mouth. Turns out a crown had fallen off. Yep. My luck. Friday evening. I tried to put it back in, but it's the very back tooth, and I couldn't do it, and I dropped it. I spent about half an hour looking for it. I went to the dentist Saturday, and of course, they have a huge treatment plan for me which I can't afford right now. I had to ask them to please put the original one back on. It fell out again before I was even out of the chair. Finally, she did it right. It's been 72 hours, and it's still there. I hate going to the dentist! Does anyone else?
My student intern will only be with me through the end of the week. She's going to be a great teacher, and she has a job taking over for a teacher who is retiring in another district. I'm going to miss her!
So, what's at the top of your wish list this year... or your child(ren)'s wish list? (Remember looking through the wish book when you were little?) I'm having a hard time coming up with anything. I just bought myself some new clothes and shoes. I also had a birthday 3 months ago, so I really don't need anything. Of course, there are a few little things I would like. Some bubble bath, for example.
I sure am enjoying some of these Hallmark Christmas movies. Are you watching any?
And to make you smile, here's a cat video you might like. Be sure to watch number 3 (reverse order)!

So sorry you lost the crown, i hope it stays put now. It's not that i hate going to the dentist, it's that the cost is prohibitive and no insurance to help out.
ReplyDeleteWe don't put up a tree as i have no desire to be hauling it upright after a cat attack several times a day. If i can find the green bookshelf that's shaped like a pirogue, i will use it.
My Christmas wish list is for the cars to stop breaking down.
Good luck to your intern, and happy decorating!
Love those cat videos! I'm petrified of the dentist. I almost always have to have the gas when I go in there. I wish your intern all the best.
