Whoever picked November 15 in the first snow contest has won themselves a new snowblower. We got our first snow today. And I don't have the plastic over my windows yet. I lacked feeling cold air as I held my hand next to the windows and sliding door, maybe I'm ok. The weather kept warming up everytime it got cold so I never taped up the plastic. I love winter, less sneezing.
I started my Christmas shopping last night. I got some miniature stockings for my pen pals and nieces. I planned on writing their names on them, but then thinking I have long names to write; like Jennifer, Annika, Alexandria, Victoria. Then I got some pink and yellow rubber bracelets from the Breast Cancer Society. I sent out an email asking for ideas on Christmas gifts, since certain people must complain what crappy gifts I hand out on Christmas day. Ideas are good to have.
I keep reading in magazines how it is not necessary to give bosses or coworkers Christmas presents. Well at my jobs, I have always given out Christmas cards to everyone I know the name to and a small ornament I made or pencil with it. Giving a boss a gift may seem like sucking up to higher authority to others, but if one is giving every coworker, janitor, mail delivery person, etc. a card and gift it seems rude to exclude the boss. My current boss has said he admires my enthusiasm for special days when I emailed him a Happy Birthday greeting after eating a piece of his birthday cake. Though, this year I can't find any craft ornaments to make for 40 people. Maybe this year I'll make cookies to pass out instead. I don't think anyone will complain about that. Besides that, any recipe makes several dozen so it would take me forever to eat 4 dozen cookies. Post later. Bye!
