Wonderful Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas with the family. We had a big brunch after the kids opened their gifts. They weren’t very happy about having to wait for the family arrived, but we had already agreed so they only pouted a little bit. I just laughed at them,because as I mentioned before they had agreed. Fortunately the family wasn’t late for a change and the second the last one arrived the kids dug into the presents like starving animals to food. It was hilarious.

The kids were happy though, they got pretty much everything they asked for and then some, so I am content. I wasn’t sure I would be able to pull it off, but I just barely managed to handle everything. I was shopping for that last present on Christmas eve, and wasn’t sure I would find it. I ended up paying more then I anticipated, but it was so worth it. Hope everyone had a great day too.

Four more days

Four more days and then life can go back to normal for a while. I am looking forward to Christmas day and seeing the family, but I will be glad the craziness of holiday shopping will be over. The malls are packed, as are all of the Walmart and other big store of that nature. People are short of time and patience and it is very telling. I was happy that I only had to pick up a couple of things when I went out today. Even still, the lines were unbelievable. It took me an hour to get in and out of the Walmart and I didn’t even have a cart full of stuff. I think I will have a nice soak tonight.

Keeping My Son From Losing His Things

I really love my child, but my son keeps losing his things. Somehow he managed to misplace his jacket at school, and this was not the first time that he did something like this either. He also managed to lose his shoes. How does a person lose their shoes? The answer to that question still escapes me to this day, and it really does not matter because it happened. What I need to do now is focus on trying to prevent him from losing his things. This is starting to get rather expensive!

I sat down and had a long drawn out talk with my son, but we all know how that goes. I am not even sure if he was listening to me. For some reason, kids seem to have this natural ability to tune their parents out. I don’t remember doing this to my parents, but I think I must have. It must be some kind of built in defense mechanism. Then it dawned on me. I needed to start using name labels for kids. This may not prevent my son from losing his things, but it certainly would make it a lot easier to find the items that he keeps losing.

With a label, I would not need to depend on my son to not lose his things. I could handle every single bit of it myself, and all I needed was something as simple as a label. So now it was up to me to find a label that I could use to label everything that my son owned. I had a plan.

Luckily I did not have to look very far. I found stuck on you and labelcity.com. They had a wide assortment of great labels that I could choose from. Now it was only a matter of getting a bunch of labels and adding the everything that my son owned.

DIY no sew dress

I found this awesome video that is a DIY for making a no sew off the shoulder dress. Not only can you make it yourself, but it costs under five dollars. I am going to start posting DIY videos to help everyone find these neat projects. I am going to buy some material and stuff to make myself this dress for the New Years celebration that is just over a week away. I know that it is going to look amazing. Hope you like this video.

Brrrrrr

Gosh it got cold really quick! The other day we didn’t even need a jacket or sweater, today it is so cold you need hats and gloves as well as your heavy winter coat. This is the reason I have come down with this cold. When the weather goes back and forth dramatically, it make it difficult for my body to keep up. The kids tend to have the same problem as well, more so then I do actually. It isn’t often that I get sick. I just hope that it stays the way it is now and doesn’t get any worse, or I will be laid up in bed for a few days.

Mine ~ Taylor Swift

I really like Taylor swift. She has nice wholesome music that isn’t full of sexual innuendo. My son really loves her as well. I hope that she comes to concert here sometime soon. I want to surprise him with tickets to the concert. I won’t even tell him where we are going either. I will just take him and he can be totally surprised when she walks out on stage, or at least until we get into the venue.

Well that didn’t happen

I have been laughing over the “end of the world” Mayan calendar thing people have been talking about. We today is the end of the calender and we are all still here. The dooms day stuff has been in the media all of my life. First it was 1984, from the Orwell novel that predicts a totalitarian society that no one likes at all. Then came the Y2K scare when the new millennium kicked in, and everyone thought that the world was going to end, or the computers and lights would all shut off. Now the Mayan calender thing. I wonder what will be next. I know that someone will come up with something new soon. Until then, I will just keep on laughing.

One thing left

I only have one thing left to buy for Christmas. I am very thankful for that, because I am tired of having to shop, shop, shop and wrap, wrap, wrap. I know that sounds horrible, but if you had to do as much I have done, you would feel the same way too. Sometimes I can get one of the older kids to help me but it is not always a good idea for them to know what everyone else is getting for Christmas. They have a tendency to blurt stuff out that you don’t want known. It’s a typical kid thing and there is nothing you can do for it, but not allow them to know what you don’t want known. Hehehe.

Running late today

Blah, I am running so late today. I haven’t gotten anything done that I wanted to before the kids got home and now it looks like I wont. I think I will just give up on it altogether and shoot for tomorrow. Since I don’t have to be up early every day, I can sleep in and hopefully get a good nights sleep. That will make all of the errands and stuff much easier to get done.

Now, I think I will go relax and watch a movie with the kids. I think they are watching a super hero movie. Something called Kick ass. I have never seen it, but it is definitely a kids type movie. Most of the super hero’s are all kids. I will let you know if I like it or not.

A Guide to Buying Fragrances for Your Loved One

Is your loved one a hard person to shop for when the holiday season comes around? When you go shopping with your partner, are they always undecided as to which products they should choose? If you are having a difficult time trying to shop for a gift for your loved one, then you need to consider buying Levata perfumes importados. If your loved one enjoys wearing perfume or cologne, then they will definitely like the gift that you choose from this perfume website. You cannot go wrong with a gift that smells good and makes them smell wonderful. There is a large selection of imported and popular colognes and perfumes that you can choose from on the internet and you can even get the product shipped to your doorstep before the holidays end. But first, you need to know a few guidelines on how to buy fragrances for your loved one.

Ask What Your Loved One is Wearing

One way to find out what type of perfume or cologne your loved one is wearing is to ask them what makes them smell so good. This is a quick and easy way to find out what type of perfume or cologne your loved one is wearing. The reason you need to know what type of fragrance they are wearing is that you can research it online and find out what type of fragrances that make up the perfume. Once you find out what type of fragrances make up the perfume that your loved one wears, you can search for imported perfumes with the same scents and undertones. That way, you’ll end up finding a perfume that your loved one will enjoy because it’ll be similar to the one that they are currently wearing. The only difference is that it is imported and exotic because you are buying it from a different country.

Look for Affordable Prices

You need to steer clear from local department stores and retailers that sell perfume and cologne because they will charge you the full retail price. These stores never place their fragrances on sale and you will end up overpaying for a product that you could buy at a decent discount online. You can find online perfume retailers that sell their products at wholesale discounted prices so you can save up to half off the regular retail price. Levata perfume’s website offers excellent discounts on all their imported perfumes and colognes.

Set the Scene

Now that you ordered the product online and you just received it in the mail today, you need to figure out how you want to give the gift to your loved one. If it is during the holiday season, you can wait until their entire family is crowded around them so they can all see the fantastic gift you bought them. Or you can create a romantic setting and hand their gift to them after you cook them dinner. These are a few ways you can give the wonderful gift of exotic and imported perfumes to your loved one.
