The tree is up...and uh, there are a few presents under it...mostly from Grandma and Pawpaw. Hurray! So, yes, I looked around and realized that Christmas is in 5 days, and I hadn't bought a single thing for my boys. Not one. Do I suck? Just a little. To be sure, I have a list of some big stuff for Brad to pick up when he goes to Walmart...hopefully soon. But I've been so busy buying presents to ship out on time and then buying gifts for my wonderful brother to haul down to the family for me, that well, I've not been thinking about the presents that will be staying here. Plus, well, I'm a procrastinator. I'll just never be the person who has all her presents bought before December rolls around. You people, I both envy and hate you! You know who you are.
Anyway, I've been so busy lately, and the cold weather has been affecting my arthritis. I couldn't wait for winter to set in, and now I can't stop aching. But wah, wah, wah. Not about me, is it? So I sucked it up, and with a splitting headache, hauled my kids to Target today. At lunch time, no less. We went to the drive through at Wendy's first, and then we munched on french fries and nuggets as we wondered around the toy aisles. I let the kids play with toys, and then as they wandered off to look at something else, I threw some of them into the cart. I'm going to wrap them up! They'll never know!
