Plans

Yup, I plan to get a tree today. I need to find a stand though. Everywhere you buy a tree here they nail a 4x4 stand to it and a water bowl. Thats right... they nail through the water bowl to attach it to the bottom of the tree. Needless to say... it doesn't work very well. Couldn't actually water the tree last year without it leaking out the bottom. Made for a dry brown tree. :-(

It's also impossible to find an actual stand here. I don't think they exist. Maybe I'll go hunting for one today (which I did last year and found nothing).

My friend Stephanie is going to have an xmas eve turkey! Her boyfriend is a chef. So that should be fun, and delicious. And for xmas... I dunno... Maybe I'll invite people here for board games! hahaha. They might think I'm crazy.

Gift giving will probably be light. My friend Tanya has two kids. I'll buy them something. And our cleaner has a couple kids I'll probably buy something little for. I know he doesn't make much money here and would probably appreciate a little help at xmas.

At some point on Xmas I plan to head to the beach... just because I can. :-)

You guys? Trees? Turkey? Whats going on?
