White Christmas
So it looks like we will be having a white Christmas. Which is great! This means I get to take Novalí to do all the fun winter activities. Sledding, building a snow man, and maybe even ice skating if we get a chance (I doubt the lake up north will be frozen, but maybe at Hoyt Park).

I have been getting into the Christmas mode... which is not usual for me. I am not a big present buyer, but I managed to find something for everyone which I think they will enjoy. I even got most of the them wrapped as well which is always fun for me. This afternoon I will finish that up before heading to Saginaw. No cards though people... you know how I feel about cards. Not a big fan...

This week was a good week to get things cleaned up at the office and wrap up my first semester at Albion. It was a good semester, and I ended it with a good thorough cleaning of my office... and man it was a lot of work.

This huge filing cabinet... towering in the corner... got sorted and emptied!

My nice little collection of Christmas cards had to get taken down.

With "Big Grey" empty... she went on to greener pastures (ie Not my Office). Thats me givin' her the BOOT!

Surprise! Under one of my shelves... a heal to a shoe! (Jen stepped on it while moving the shelf)

So now my office is how I want it... at least for now. I have more room, less junk, better wall space to hang stuff on, and space for when students come in to meet with me. This also means I have to find somethings to hang on the walls... hum...

For those who have yet to see my office, or seen it prior to the changes, here she is... this is gonna be a great year!

Well it is time for me to run... got to pick up a few more gifts, wrap some more presents, pack my car, and head to Saginaw!

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus, right down...
