…or planning to get organized…
I`m ready for Christmas. Yes I am. My house is clean – I`m ready. What ever I do from now on and until Christmas – I do it because I want to. Gifts? Maybe I will buy gifts or maybe I won`t. There is nothing I dislike more than buying presents. It`s okay if someone tells me what they want or what they need, but I really don`t like buying things for people. Things they don`t want or things they don`t like. I really admire people who have the ability to give the perfect gift, but I am not one of them.
I must have been traumatized as a kid because I do remember the first gift I bought on my own. (With money my mother gave me). I got a wallet for my big brother. That evening my brother teased me saying that he knew what I was giving him. Of course he knew, we lived in a small community:) I never enjoyed giving gifts after that. I wonder if my brother have bad memories about this too, because for years he never owned a wallet.
As a reward for myself half way through cleaning the house I took the time to make a digital layout.
Elin Marie on a break during her fieldtrip with her grandparents. Her boots were too small. At least grandma ment they were too small. Makes me wonder if that is a grandma thing? But, the girl was a trooper and she still had a great adventure.

I would like to join Anna Aspnes`s Album Magic at Renee Pearson. The class start today and maybe this is just the thing for my “Christmas Journal”. Still havn`t decided how I want to do my album this year. But I did get an online delivery with some beautiful Christmas paper from SEI. Lovely red with glitter. I want to start making pages now! What about you? Are you making a December album?
