I Bought My 2008 Calendar

I bought my 2008 calendar today. Last year I saw the 2007 calendars and thought, 'Hmmm, I should get one.....but it is only October and I don't think I need it yet.' Well about February I started looking for some 2007 calendars. I had trauma. They were nowhere to be found at any of the stores I went and even online the only kind they had available were Dilbert or Far Side.
I went to the BYU bookstore thinking that FOR SURE they would have some there. They did. And they were 90% off. And there was no selection. I had to get one because I had refinished a calendar frame that my aunt gave us for our wedding and it was hanging in the entry way. So I got the best one they had. It was a Mormon themed 'Anne Geddes' calendar. It was terrible. But it was only 2 dollars and I had such bad luck looking for them I decided I had to get something.

I hung it in our entry way for about a month until my mom gave me a nice botanical calendar she had bought that didn't fit in her calendar frame. It saved us from explaining our calendar trauma every time someone saw a swaddled baby holding a long horn looking like angel Moroni.

So yeah, I saw some calendars today and I bought one. 3 months early. I'm glad to have it. :)
(And no, I didn't get an Anne Geddes calendar.....it is a nice scenic outdoorsy one.)

Michelle, I'm so glad you didn't get Anne Geddes. I was going to have to reprimand you. :)

Nature--now THAT'S a calendar.

I was going to buy a calendar for a dollar at Michael's, but I couldn't decide between cats and M&Ms.
