well today on the way to work, one of my carpoolers said that we only have to work 2 1/2 more days this entire year and then we dont return back to work until january 5th. and it dawned on me that i did not send out christmas cards and i am really sorry to anyone reading this that did not get a card from me. i hate ecards mostly because they are sort of impersonal and all that but that is what everyone will be getting this year. i am busy planning out how next year i am going to be good and get everything done that i want to do and have it ready to all go in the mail for the day after thanksgiving! so while everyone is out on black friday at the mall, i will be a step ahead of them and mailing my gifts out at the post office.
my granddaughters are not getting their presents til sometime around new years eve and that is just alright. i am sure their other grandparents got them enough stuff to fill a toyrus and my stuff can come in just in time for the after christmas excitement is over let down day. anyone else every have those? christmas letdown has nothing to do with how many presents you get, it is like the suspense and waiting is over and the adrenaline stops pumping and everything gets back to normal and there is not this huge exciting anticipation of the visit from santa and all that...
well this year there will be something to look forward too after normal people are back to their everyday lives, because my gifts will be arriving late.
ok i know i am not kidding any of you and the truth is i got so busy worrying about dogs, that i forgot about my humans. i know insane. but true. i swear i am going to create a list of achievable goals for the upcoming year and stick to them. in fact i will blog them here in a future blog, so i will know what i did with the list when i am done!
i am off to clean the house and get ready to wrap damiens presents and get them ready to go with his papa bill to go see him on christmas day. i was going to make pictures to add here of all the stuff laying around here that should have been mailed last week, but i cant find what someone did with the memory card for my camera...grrrrrrrrrrrrr this mess is a PLACE!

I know what you mean! We need more space between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Maybe you'll start a new tradition of sending New Year's gifts instead of Christmas gifts. :) I think it's fun to receive something after Christmas when you think it's all over. Start a new tradition, plus think of all the sales you can hit!
