I’m a little late

I forgot to tell everyone Happy Memorial Day. I was so busy this past weekend, that I was barely even home. We were on the go from morning to night all three days. By the time we were done, we were all exhausted and it took this long to recuperate. I hope everyone had as great a weekend as we did.

Better late then never

I just wanted to say a late Happy Mothers Day to all of the mom’s out there. I had a wonderful day with my kids and was very busy. They made me breakfast in bed and then we left the house to spend time at the park having fun. It was a beautiful day, with a lovely breeze and we had a great time.

Shopping

Well Easter is well on it’s way and the time has come to stock up on the supplies I will need for Easter Sunday. I have to make baskets, and dye eggs with the kids as well as prep every thing for Easter dinner. I have so much to do and want to get a head start in it so I don’t have to run crazy later. Sometimes that happens and then I am stuck running around like achicken with it’s head cut off. (eww) Bad analogy, but you certainly understand my reasoning. Why are some of the oldest analogies so gross? Oh well, gotta go. Talk to you guys later.

Glad that’s over

I hope everyone had a great holiday season. I know that we still have the New Years celebration to do yet, but I don’t really count that as part of the holiday. After all I am back to work before then and it’s just another day. Fortunately for me I am not in retail or service and don’t have to worry about being inundated with customers because of it. I really feel sorry for those who work in the industries previously mentioned. They get so busy they barely have time to breath.

Once New Years passes, we can officially get back to normal life. That will be a good thing. I am so tired of the holiday season already. People just act too angry during the holidays now. It get really annoying. I remember the days when people used to be happy and sing carols and such, but not anymore. It has become so commercialized that everyone is just running in place to keep up. Enough ranting about that though. I have a lot of work to do and very little time to get it done.

Florida Gators Like Santa, Too

I just couldn’t resist posting this as it was too funny. I have a feeling all of the football fans that like the Florida Gators football team really like it too. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year. I know that we are going to have an awesome holiday ourselves.

Almost over

Well this year is almost over and there is so much yet to do. I have a ton of Christmas presents to buy and a list as long as my arm. I know that I should have gotten some of it done sooner, if not all of it. I can’t help it, I always wait for the good sales to hit. They always run from Thanksgiving to Christmas and are a great money saver for me. Occasionally, I will shop right after Christmas and get those sales, but I usually use those things that I buy for birthday’s and such. Oh well, time to get cracking on that list. Later Gators!

Back to work

Well I am back to work and the kids are back in school after a well deserved holiday. We went to my sisters for dinner on Thanksgiving day and really enjoyed spending time with the family. Now I have to start really working on my Christmas shopping list. I don’t have much time left, plus this weekend we will put up the Christmas decorations and tree. I am going to be so busy over the next month, it is already making me tired just thinking about it. I love the holiday’s, but I can’t wait till they are over.

So much to do

There is always so much to do as the holidays begin to arrive. Starting with Halloween, there is decorations to go up and then back down. Toss some stuff out for Thanksgiving and bring it down as well. Then of course the major decorating for Christmas immediately following Thanksgiving. Lights to put up, picking the perfect tree and decorating it. This is a lot of work. In between each one, as you remove decoration, there is the cleaning process as well. By the time New Years gets here, I am usually exhausted. Then again, so is everyone else I know.

Happy Halloween

I just wanted to tell everyone Happy Halloween! Have a great time tonight and whatever you do, DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE! I hope all the little kids out there have an amazing time Trick or Treating. Don’t forget to save me some candy afterwards. Now go have fun and be careful.

Halloween party

Halloween is my favorite holiday. I love to dress up each year as something different and original. One year I went as a cereal killer. I wore regular clothes with a mask and held a box of cereal with a fake knife stuck through it. People loved it. This year, I am going all out with some major makeup. I found a tutorial on YouTube that shows you how to make a unzipped-zipper face. It looks amazingly cool and I have already bought all of the stuff to do it. I can’t wait for my friends to see it.
