I wanted to write this blog yesterday but was to tired to do it. So I will just add it to today's activities. Not a big deal. I was pretty excited yesterday. I went to work and then was able to get a few things crossed off my to-do list. I stopped at Walgreens and picked up the pictures I had developed. After Walgreens, I went to the Dollar Store and got some Christmas mugs and Christmas cards. The mugs are for the guys that I work with at Metro and the cards are for sending out to family and friends.
I got to the School Board Office and while I was in the front office I was able to get all of the envelopes addressed. I was so excited. When I got home I signed all of them and put our picture inside. I then sat at my computer and wrote a little note that I was going to print out on some Christmas paper and put into the cards. But my printer went all nuts and wouldn't print. So needless to say, the cards have no letters in them. Oh well. No big deal. So everything was sealed and ready to go.
Today I went to Metro and did what I needed to do there. Then I went to the mall. OMG I really dislike going there. It wasn't too bad though. There weren't too many people. My first stop was Hallmark for a keepsake ornament for my son. I wanted one that said son and '08 but couldn't find one. They had ones with '08 but none with son. The son ornament for this year I didn't like at all. So I found this little dog one that was so adorable and decided to get that one. At least it had the year on it and it was really cute. So after that I ended up going to Spencer's just to see what they had. OMG I was so excited because they had Bob Marley fleece thows. Everyone who knows me knows that I like Bob Marley but my dad LOVES him. So I called my mom just to let her know that I found them and she asked if I get it for her and she would pay me back. So that is what I did. The blanket is called "One Love" and that is one of my dad's favorite Bob Marley album. So I can't wait to hear about his reaction on Christmas Day.
After Spencer's, I went in search of some perfume that my mom has been wanting. She wants Liz by Liz Claiborne. Well when I got to Macy's I found out that they don't carry that scent anymore. I was a bit upset. So I will have to let my dad know that and we will come up with a new gameplan for that gift. After I left Macy's I stopped by Gamestop to see my friend who works there Seth. I needed some advise on some games that I am thinking about getting my boys anyway. Seeing Seth was really great. Haven't seen him in forever so it was nice getting to talk to him for a bit. So then I had to leave to get back to work at the School Board.
While I was there I made some lables for my Christmas cards. Got all the lables on and also got to put them through the postage machine. So I didn't have to pay for postage...how freaking cook is that??!! Yes I did do some actual work for the school board too...lol. I did a lot of filing and sorting. I also got to help a teacher that was using the big copy machine because it got jammed. That was fun. But we got it unjammed and working again. So that was good.
I got my cards in the mail tonight too. I am so excited about that. I have one that I haven't sent yet but I have to put a few more things inside the card. It is for my son's 8th grade buddy Ross. I want to get him a little something for christmas. Maybe a gift card to Wal-Mart. I don't know. Decisions decisions.
Tomorrow is going to be fun. Deuce has pajama day at school. They are wearing their pajamas and will be watching the movie "The Polar Express" and having hot chocolate and other christmas things. He is so excited. Then tomorrow night is the Christmas play. Deuce's class is singing a song. He is so funny and can't wait for that. I can't wait to see it either. I am so bringing the video camera!!!
Wow that was a long blog. Sorry it was so long. But I have been productive and I am happy about that. Anyway, I am going to try and get some sleep. Have a big day tomorrow!!!
