i think they meant santa punch bowls, not santa punching balls....

tomorrow is going to go by quickly and i still have a lot to get done! i shouldn't, but it seems like it always happens this way around the holidays. boo.

i actually have some things that i can do tonight-like a thank you card to our brookhaven college for coming to visit, but that's just a drop in the bucket and more of a fun thing than a task...as i was flipping through the channels, the boys made me stop on charlie brown Christmas. (they actually had charlie brown Christmas trees on sale in a box at tom thumb).

when school let out, one of my students' mothers found me and yes, i will be purchasing two dozen tamales tomorrow-i am such a sucker for fresh tamales!

this morning i stopped and got some spray at walmart because it was very close to the spray my mom had so long ago (you may remember i mentioned it back in november) it is called winter wonderland, but i just call it Christmas in a can. and while i was there, i may have come across this Christmas novelty, which i think is a flop-whoever invested money in this must live in a country that doesn't know who santa is or why it might not be a good idea to punch him.

and not only that, they call him a critter...coal for you

we had a little  exchange amongst co-workers today at work, and i was blessed with some fun and thoughtful gifts! which i will be able to put to use right away, thank you very much! then when i got home, i had a note to pick up a package! i went in and i had a package from david and hollie-love it! yes bakerella cake pops!

no excuses now!

almost all of my students have finished their books! one of them wrote a dedication that was more of an academy awards speech...she even dedicated it to beyonce and her fiance. hmm....


countdown is in full swing!!
