Ok, my computer is smarter than me. Not like that was any big revelation, but I can't get my little christmas tree picture up there to align to the left. So, it will sit stupidly up there in the middle of the page. Booger, I mean, Blogger; it's a love/hate relationship. Though I am going to try the 'write the post on windows and post it' thing. I've heard it's good.Anyway, that's nothing related to a Christmas Idea. I would like to preface this idea by saying that just because I'm suggesting these activities does it mean that I have accomplished any of it. These ideas are just as much a push in the tush for me as anyone. If there is a completely formed plan for me, I'm more likely to do it. More likely. Not necessarily do it, but at least I thought about it. For the record, I have managed to put up the tree, get it half decorated and set out my Nativities. And pay some guys to hang my lights. The rest of the week has been spent cleaning up kid barf. But, we're all good now.
O-K! Christmas Idea #4:
Make a paper chain to count down to Christmas. Or till the party next week. Or till that present comes in the mail. Count down to Boxing day, or New Years; whatever floats your boat. You could take it one step further and glue a little 'thought of the day' inside. Or make the chain out of candies and have a sweet a day!

Oh that is a good one! Way too much work right now. Can you remind me of this next year? lol!
We got the tree up, and decorated today. I still want to make and paint some salt dough ornaments with the kids :)
As well as paper chains, I love making crackers, remembering to keep the empty loo roll is probably the hardest bit whilst remembering all those 'groan aloud' jokes is probably the most enjoyable.
