A scissor attack, Santa letters and a coffee sleeve.
So. Today. I was hummin’ along, clip, clip, clippin’ down the big parts offa the little branch things from a bundle of non-organic *shame* grapes, and out of NO. FLIPPIN’. WHERE. the scissors ATTACKED my poor, cute, innocent little finger tip. Now, I am left typing without my left ring finger! You have no idea how devoted I am… I am down A WHOLE FINGER and yet I post. For you. Just look at the carnage!
The scissors in question did not make bail… and will probably be banished to 4 rounds in an extra hot dishwasher – for punishment as well as disinfectation. That’s my new word — disinfectation. I know. I’ll submit it to Webster’s after the New Year.

The kids wrote Santa notes to place next to the cookie plate tonight:
Note: Joel was born in 1999. The boy knows how to work an angle.
But will she love her ONE present from Santa?

I mentioned in an earlier post that I recently attended a cookie exchange. I just have to share what Nikki made… She MADE… SEWED… *turning green with skillz envy* the most desperately adorable coffee sleeves EVER! Eh-Vah! She package up her little cookies, popped them in a paper coffee cup, slipped on the homemade sleeve and tied the cuteness up with clear cellophane and fun ribbon. Here’s that sleeve:
I. Know. I am so lucky to be friends with such a gifted woman.

Lastly, don’t forget to follow Santa on Norad tonight! Peace, love and all the stuff that peace and love are made of… to you and your families… Merry Christmas

I thought you were squeamish. Here you are posting bloody nasty finger meat on your blog. Ewwww.
That coffee sleeve is frickin’ awesome! I should attempt something like that…someday…maybe….probably not….ever.
Merry Christmas to you and the fam!
Merry Christmas Jenny! Congrats on nearly 1,000 posts…you rock girl. No more playing with scissors for you my friend. Just put them aside and walk away. Wrap all your presents in pretty bags instead.
Love the coffee sleeve…that girl is C.R.E.A.T.I.V.E.
We’ve had Santa on the Google Earth all day. That dude can truck it through some countries!
My oldest laid the smooth on Santa in his letter today, too, thanking him “for all the toys you’ve given me through all the years!”
Enjoy your Christmas!
Are you sure you weren’t RUNNING with the scissors? Because that kind of thing can happen….I’m just sayin’.
Merry Merry Christmas to you and yours, Beautiful Awesome Glittery Jenny! May all your days be merry and bright!
Yikes. That looks like it hurts.
I adore that coffee sleeve! How creative!!
Merry Christmas to you & yours!!!! I hope your day is as bright as you.
That is freakin’ awesome! How did you generate enough blood from that little cut to write two letters to Santa???? Your commitment is awe-inspiring.
