A week away
Two more days at work, then I get a week off! Yay! Darling daugher will be here until Christmas Eve, then she goes to her dad's for Christmas Day. We will be having our big thing on Christmas Eve. Mom and I planned the dinner last night ... I think we have it under controlChristmas shopping ... Ugh! NO I am NOT done! Thanks for NOT asking! I get hives just thinking about hurling myself into the mall madness. I did go out last Saturday and got a few things. I planned it carefully to be out during the dinner hour when most people would be home or at restaurants eating dinner. It wasn't too bad ... except for the nightmare in the Best Buy parking lot. But I did a lot of fruitless running around trying to find a particular gift for my daughter. I finally ordered it online. It hasn't shipped yet ... the freebie thingy it comes with is out of stock. I'm getting nervous.
We cleaned out a bunch of old junk last night, so I could get to the Christmas decoration stuff in the closet in my son's room. Two huge boxes went to the dumpster, now I need to call Goodwill to come pick up six ... yes, SIX trash can bags full of old clothes! And there's still plenty more! I just didn't want to dig that deep into the closet.
I got the tree up with the lights and bead garland. The kids are in charge of putting on the ornaments. Not much done there ... yet. I just ain't into the spirit this year. It's been several years since I really enjoyed the holidays. Maybe I am just getting old.
