{365} 12.9.11 "O (naked) Christmas Tree"

Hi all,

Sorry that I have been MIA this week!!  I started my new job bright and early on Monday morning.  I now have to leave the house at 6am (which is an hour earlier than I am used to), so I am trying to get on a new morning routine.  Before (for my last job) I would get up earlier than I had to, so I could drink my coffee, check emails, and do my daily blog hopping before leaving for work.  But now that I have to leave a lot earlier, I don't have that extra hour to do my "fun" morning routine, instead I am sipping my coffee in a travel mug and listening to Christmas Carols on the radio.  

I finished the first week of training and I think I am really going to like my new job, which is always a plus!! right?  Thursday was the first night that I didn't feel like I wanted to go to bed at 8 pm, LOL!!  I think I am getting adjusted *smile*  But I sure am glad it is the weekend and I can sleep later than 4:30 a.m. tomorrow *woot*

Tonight when I got home, Mike and I (mostly  Mike), put up our Christmas tree.  We will decorate it Saturday or Sunday.  I am just happy it is up!!  For some reason I am having a hard time getting in the Christmas Spirit this year, not sure why.  Maybe because I still have so much to do???!!!

Here is our naked tree... (and if you look closely, you can see Dewey, sitting on the stairway landing~that is one of his favorite spots)
 

**And I want to thank Deb H for your sweet email today!! 
It made me smile!!  :)

Enjoy today!!
