They Who Shall Not Be Named (Twisnibbins) IV (Page 58)

haha if the ones I made in preschool still exist I dont know about it!

When we moved OS when I was 10 we didnt take that kind of thing with us so we started from scratch and each christmas my mum and I would go looking for new things for the tree...

Nothing is colour matched or anything but it always looks fantastic!

I don't color match either...just have a thing for angels.  Got gazillions of them all over the tree in many shapes, sizes, styles...lots of cats too (hmm, wonder why? ) and a few bears for good measure.  I try to buy a few new ornaments each year since you always wind up throwing some out for breakage

Oh well Dee's sig line already says Im a bad kitty

So, here's what my house looks like after today

So, here's what my house looks like after today

you ARE a bad Kitty - why do you think we love you so much!

Better than all over the bedroom and bathroom floors

I can deal with a mess if there's a purpose to it (ie school project or one of my half done cross stitch things) because these are usually self limited and evenually get completed (okay so I have a cross stitch project I started when the kids were toddlers  but its on a shelf) It's the inability to throw away every scrap of paper or junk food wrapper on the floor that I can't deal with--and the assorted dirty dishes in the bedroom that don't belong there in the first place.  Now my assorted race numbers need a permanent home.

Quick poll-What do the Nibbins do with race numbers?

A) Save for ummmm interesting pics

B) Toss it cause you have race pics from a friend/S.O. coming

C) Use it in a scrapbook for yur races

D) Make acollage of the seasons race numbers, take a picture of the collage and toss 'em  or not take a pic but keep the collage

good point!

haha not many christmases at home... and when I have had them and then moved Ive generally left my stuff with other people...

How hard can it be to start from scratch?

I wouldn't think it should be too hard - hey, this way you get exactly what you want :-)

my kids didn't want me to hang the ones they made in preschool.  NO WAY those things are special, cute little ornaments covered in glitter with preschool pics of my girls when they were cute!!Now they're just teenagers in need of attitude adjustment.  I still keep nonbreakable ornaments, somethig to do with Mocha climbing the tree and knocking them down.  Oscar chews up the soft ones, Copy doesn't care as long as she has a lap of choice once in a while

you are welcome any time!

Thanks - Im not sure how I would cope with a cold christmas... could be a nice change though....

Things like santa in a big hot suit, snowflakes as decorations, a hot roast meal for lunch and hanging up stockings would definatley make more sense if I had cristmas in winter

LOL

I can see that for sure!

Well keeping in mind i share my place with a b-o-y AND Im on a budget Oh yeah and Im a christmas freak....

ok, so your day will come! ;-)

haha yeah, and if im paying for it Ive only committed to one thing so far... making sure there is a packet of cocoa pops wrapped up for breakfast..

Oh and making a pavlova... but I would be doing that anyway

Oh My

I lost all of my stars and got one back and I didn't even notice

LMAO
