Christmas

Well today I decided to write something..........I always want to post something, but I get so consumed in my work and just everyday life that I hardly take time for myself.Anyway, I cannot believe that Christmas is almost here. Like every year, I still am not finished with my shopping :( Other than my kids, I have other family members to buy for , and I never know what to get them. Gift cards just seem so lame, lol. I just hate the thought of buying a gift that will sit way back in the closet or get "recycled",LOL! These people that I have such a hard time buying for are the ones saying "I don't care, get me whatever"? So I'd rather not give money or gift card , because then there's an issue about that, so I'd rather just buy something I think they'll like. This way they don't know how much I paid,lol. Kids are so much easier to buy for. Seriously, you can buy them anything and they're the happiest kid in the world:) I have the kids lists already, and it's so much easier knowing what I'm shopping for. As of today I have 14 shopping days , so that makes my stress level rise. Once it's here, I really am grateful that I have a home in which I can open up to my family. I love that we can all be there sitting around watching the kids open their gifts and spend the day together. I think about the men and women that are serving our country that can't be home with their families this time of year. I also think about the homeless people that don't have families or a warm cozy home. I hope that everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year. I'm hoping now that I know alittle more about this blogger thing that I'll be able to make more time to write. I enjoy reading your blogs, so it's only fair that I give you guys something to enjoy too;)
