Friday

I swear I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off. But then again it is the holiday season so of course it will get busy. I am writing what went on over the last few days on seperate entries cause if I did it all together it would be really way to long. LOL.

Friday was a busy for day for Deuce. They had a half day at school and they had a jam packed so many things into those four hours. They had the school mass that morning, then they had their Christmas parties. So when my parents went to pick him up he was so excited. They all went to the new Mexican place in town. It was really good from what I hear. So that is good.

I was working at the School Board office on Friday. I was covering the front office. Everyone was in great spirits because the Christmas Party was Friday afternoon at Crawfish Town in Henderson. I usually go to the party but this year I couldn't because I was covering the front desk. But it's all good. After everyone left for the party there were three people left in the whole building, me, Tiffany and Mr. Mike the janitor. We left at about 2:30 and I headed to the bank to get my check cashed. After my check was cashed I headed to Lafayette to begin my Christmas shopping. I had already finalized my list so I knew exactly what I needed and where I needed to go. I started at Bed Bath and Beyond. I swear if I didn't have to stand in line I would have been in and out of there in ten minutes. It was great. I walked in and grabbed the first item on my list. Then I went to the back of the store and got the second thing I needed to get and then found one other thing that I wasn't sure I could get there. So I was pretty happy. It really didn't take long in line. Anyway that I went to the Mall. I really was not looking forward to that but it wasn't as crowded as I though it would be. I went to the stores I needed and got exactly what I needed. I was so happy to be in and out and done with the Mall.

I was going to get something for Deuce at Michael's Craft Store but the traffic was way to bad. So I just went to Wal-Mart in Breaux Bridge. I got just about everything that remained on my list there and I was really happy. While I was there I decided that I am going to do a painting for my Mom. It won't take long for me to do it and she is going to love it so a little less for me to spend. LOL. The main thing I wanted was for my hubby. I am getting him a new phone. He know's he is getting one but he just doesn't know which one. He needs a new one so bad. He can barely hear anything from the one he has. Anyway, I was in line for like twenty minutes waiting my turn and then realized that they didn't have the phone I wanted to get him. I was really irritated. So I got out of line and picked up a few more things that we needed for our house and then went to check out. I don't understand this and maybe someone can explain it to me. It is Christmas time and therefore the stores are busy and have lots of people in line. Why do they not open up more lanes? There are like thirty lanes and only like eight or ten are opened. I don't understand that. But anyway, it didn't take long for me checking out there either so I was happy about that.

When I left Wal-Mart, I went down the road and stopped at Family Dollar and was going to pick up a few things. I got some gift bags and gift tags and some really cute cardinal figures for my aunt and my mom. We have a thing for cardinals in our family. They remind us of my Uncle Ricky who passed away two years ago. Anyway, I finally got home and was looking forward to having a hamburger that my hubby made. So I get home and find out that he only made hamburgers for him and Deuce. He thought I was going to eat in Lafayette or something. I was so irritated because I was looking forward to eating a burger. I told Hubby on Thursday night that I didn't care what he cooked just as long as they saved a little for me. Of course they didn't so I went to Arby's and got some food from there. Oh just for the record, the mint chocolate swirl shake from Arby's.....not very good. I was very disappointed in that. It looked so good on TV.

So after I ate, I got ready for bed and passed out. I was so tired but in a good way. So now all I had left to do was get a few gifts from my list and then wrap everything. That was my plan for Saturday morning.
