I put my office tree up today.



BTW, yes, that is a typewriter behind it.  Yes, my office is stuc kin the 80s.
No, they won't let me chuck it out of my office, "Just in case."

Do you have a favorite Christmas decoration?
-I have a ceramic Santa setting on a bench that has not been put away since I won it in a White Elephant switch 5 years ago. (Besides moving.)
Favorite Theme? 
-I have stuffed gingerbread dolls at my house.
Do you decorate at work?.

    I have a mother and baby elephant ornament that I love.
    Favorite Theme? 
    I like snowflakes.
    Do you decorate at work?
    I stay at home, so I guess technically, yes.

    I haven't decorated my office yet. I have an awesome fiber optic tree that I need to bring in. They are putting up the decor in the lobby today (the main building lobby--there are multiple companies here).

    I got most of my house done on Sunday, but it's nothing compared to the amount of decorating my mom does. I do have an inflatable penguin on my balcony.

    Do you have a favorite Christmas decoration?
    My Great grandmothers 2 silver ornaments from the 40s.

    Favorite Theme? 
    Red and green plaid just screams Christmas to me.

    Do you decorate at work?
    I don't have a job yet but on my desk here at school I have a snowglobe

    I have to share my Christmas fail. I tried to make a gingerbread house kit and I ended up adding too much water to the icing... after fighting with it for 30 minuets I gave up and went crazy with the decorations, here is the end result...

    A Ginger Crack-house

    Audgie she is so cute!!!!!


    Do you have a favorite Christmas decoration?
    -     Not really. I am really into Christmas so it would be really hard to pick just one.
    Favorite Theme? 
    -Disney. What can I say FI and I are REALLY big Disney people
    Do you decorate at work?.
    - Yes I do. I have my home made garland up and my awesome Disney fiber optics tree. My supervisor asked me to make garland for the rest of my team so I will get to decorate the rest of my team's desks as well.

    What is the "just in case" that you would need the typewriter for? I was going to say incase the power goes out and you really need a typed document but I think most "recent" typewriters require power.

    Anyone who wants to replicate the ginger house just needs to give up hope on your own and throw everything on it at once. =)

    Bummer @where, i hope my future employer lets us have a little something

    We have floppy disks for this very reason. I don't think anyone has a computer with a floppy drive anymore. I asked me boss and he said we might need hem one day. Yep, when cds and flash drives are suddenly obsolete and hard to find, I will be SO GLAD we kept the floppies.

    Do you have a favorite Christmas decoration? I bought an engagement ornament this year :)
    Favorite Theme?  FGMIL's penguins
    Do you decorate at work? Not really. I'll probably hang my cards on my cubicle once I start getting some.

    Loopy, one of my co-workers uses it about twice a year.  She'll get the little 3 X 5 cards that she needs to type something on.
    I'm not even sure what those cards are for...

    But it HAS to stay in MY office.  It's on a smaller desk that makes it really hard to get out of my L-shaped desk.  So I have bruises where I hit my hips on the corners where the two meet.  In the almost two years that I've worked here, I've never been without a bruise on one of my hips. 

    ML, you win on obsolete technology.  At least mine is used 1 or 2 times a year.  But yours takes up less space, so I'll gladly trade.

    Whereyat- Thank you!

    Lei- I did not cut the pieces out myself. They are pre-cut, glittery, foam shapes that I bought at Jo Ann Fabrics. I bought some ribbon that I liked and used a hole punch to put two holes in the tress so I could string the ribbon through. The snowflakes already had holes in the center to I didn't have to do anything to them. I then just strung them all together and hung them up. It took like 15-20 min total to make it.
