Nativity Set

A few years ago, I came across this nativity set:

(via oliverfabel.de)

I loved it, but wasn't willing to spend the money on something so simple.

So I made a set of my own out of wood scraps from my mother-in-law, some stain and letter stamps.  Arranged artfully on the hutch in my dining room, this is what it looks like:

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happiness Shared by The Boy

I love, love, LOVE this song.

And the video makes me happy too.

QuickBooks

I have a question for you, Dear Readers. 

Do any of you have any experience with Quickbooks?

This program has become the bane of my existance. It is an accounting program that we use for work. Well, that I use for work, now that I am the one in the office, doing the majority of the accounting.

I seem to be having problems with the thing. Particuarly with reconciling.

If you or anyone you know has any experience with it, and think you can help, please leave a message in the comments.

Otherwise, please send Understanding and Patience Vibes my way.

I am very grateful.

I'm looking forward to going home for Thanksgiving for a nice, relaxing weekend. Possibly including the baking of Christmas cookies? We shall see.

Have a nice November, Dear Readers.
