Back to the drawing board...

So, Saturday I was on the hunt for the boots Chelsey wants for Christmas....only option was to get them at Nordstrom and have them shipped store to store. The guy called....had the boots pulled, gave all info, paid for boots and shipping. Today he calls and it didn't happen...boots didn't get flagged. Someone else got them... So, we are now to Plan B, as soon as I figure out what is!

Again, is it January yet?

It's clean!!!

The old house is cleaned out!!!! Only thing left is 3 area rugs and my cleaning supplies. Good lord what a chore! Danny and Colby took two truck loads to storage. THEY still have a couple of items, but I am DONE with that house...

Colby is cooking a pie. Half blueberry half peach. Chelsey made potatoes. Danny and I ate out. LOL. Nothing wrong with that sentence....

Just gave Tank and Lily a bath. House is a mess....the kids can clean tomorrow, since they are out for two weeks. Chelsey couldn't wait for Thomas to get home (he and his Mom flew to Florida for the Bucs/Cowboys game. He is a Bucs fan and his Mom is died hard Cowboys according to Chelsey. I may just have to meet her one day... His plane got in late, so their movies and dinner have to wait. She is kinda stopped up, so I do not think she is too disappointed. He's taking her to see Alvin and the Chipmunks. I think that speaks volumes about this guy!

Back to work tomorrow and then count down the days until Christmas!

Have a good week all!

Just a moment of panic....

Up and out this morning to finish up Chelsey and Colby's Christmas gifts...Frisco bound. Had my list. Knew exactly where I needed to go and even had it kinda planned in my mind, so I would only have to make one trip around the mall. First and second stop were for really small gifts, so to keep from having to drag around multiple sacks, I got one larger sack at my first stop, then added to it as I progressed thru the mall. After a couple more stops, i had to add another sack Went upstairs for a couple of items, got them really quick and started toward the last store. As I am walking I realize that I left the first sack at my last stop. Panic set in....I almost ran back and luckily, my sack was still sitting there. Thank goodness, was so relieved. Went to Champs, grasping my two sacks, and while looking around, I saw a lady looking at t-shirts. She was in decision mode, you could just tell. I walked around then headed back to the tshirts once more....on top of the shirts, was a Coach bag. I realized that the woman left it....so I stood by it, looking for her. Finally she went up to the register and I picked up the purse and said "I think you forgot this". She looked at me in shock and said OMG thank you!!! She didn't even realize that she had laid it down and walked away. I said Merry Christmas and continued shopping. So....some strange lady is probably happy that someone honest saw her purse and I am glad that someone dishonest missed out on my sack. Whew....we were both lucky!

After I got home, I snuck everything to our bedroom and wrapped...all under the tree. Chelsey and Colby will have to spend the next week trying to figure out which gift belongs to who...no name tags. LOL. Keeps them on their toes...

Cowboys are winning...better go savor that statement and hope like heck they do not blow this lead!

Making cookies...

Chelsey spent her Friday night with me making peanut clusters and pretzel cookies. Becca came buy as well. Fun night with the girls!

Planning on just a couple more things for Christmas during my shopping tomorrow. No, Chelsey is NOT getting her entire list.... Then I am done January yet?

Least it didn't rain today...

Wellie Socks...

What are Welle socks? Google it.....I am going to make some! Made a trip to Goodwill in Lewisville today. Bought 7 sweaters to cut up and make the socks. $30 for 7 sweaters to make 7 pair of socks....the socks are $30 a pair on line. Winner winner! When I got home, I was all excited to show my idea to Chelsey. She was not impressed....why am I not surprised? YES I got the idea from Pinterest.com. Addictive....

Tired of the rain...will it ever end?

Glad tomorrow is Friday!
