Come listen to the ramblings and assorted babblings of a crazed mother and newbie author. It might not always be helpful, but it should be amusing.

Spent!

That's what I am, and that's what I did, hahahaha

I went shopping yesterday and GOT ALL MY CHRISTMAS SHOPPING DONE IN ONE DAY!!!
I spent money like they were going to stop printing it if I didn't spend it all at once, but I'm done. Now I just have to wrap them all. If I start right now I might be done by Christmas...2006.

As a Christmas present to myself I had lunch with my best friend. We split a pitcher of Sangria and talked and laughed and had a great time. I'm really doing my best to ENJOY the traditions of Christmas instead of sweating the small stuff.

This is not as easy as it sounds. I have PMS and have run into some rough patches recently, but I'm trying to focus on the positives.

One very positive thing is that I have a lot of great friends. Thank you all so much for listening to me babble and even commenting on my ramblings! We've been so busy that I haven't been on line as much lately so I haven't done my usual blog hopping, but boy do I think about y'all!!!

Well, I had better get to the wrapping while the girls are at school, if I don't get back in the next two weeks, have a great Christmas everyone! Thanks for being my best presents!

    Awww, Ari. *sending a hug*

    You're right to not sweat the small stuff. Then remember that almost everything IS small stuff.

    Happy holidays!

    Since your post, I went to the mall and ended up with bags and bags of stuff, which I inturn stuffed into big giant bags. I looked like a double-bagged rather tall Santa's elf!
