My Day

I started out the day by going shopping. I didn't think it would take as long as it did. I left the apartment at 9:30 am and didn't get home till about 6pm. I did get some shopping done though. It just took a lot longer than anticipated. I actually enjoyed it though. Going from store to store to find the right thing. I really won't say I enjoyed the traffic or rude people though. But most were very pleasant and I got to meet some nice people too. I did manage to get one wrapped for Skittles and I hope she likes it.

She isn't as easy as I am to shop for. I'm like a little kid, almost anything makes me happy. I'm not saying that Skittles is picky, just that she is more secretive about her wants. She does drop hints, I just have to remember what they are lol. I think we pretty much have all of our shopping done with the exception of maybe one or two items. This makes me happy. The year seemed to fly by and we kind of put off shopping for things a bit too long.

I'm really looking forward to Christmas this year. I love seeing the grandkids open their presents and the ooooohhhs and ahhhhs they give. I'll be taking pictures too.

Speaking of pictures, there's something I don't really understand about getting together with Skittles family. No one else brings a camera! How can this be? They all have one, I've seen them. But at birthday parties and such it seems that I am the only one taking pictures. I'm not saying I mind, it's just I don't understand why others wouldn't do it also.

Oh well. I have one more week of work then I get a week off. WoooHooo. I guess that's about all I have for now. Till next time BYE!!

It's not so much that I'm secretive, it's that I know once I get something I then have to find a place to put it! ;)

In our family people even haul cameras to take pictures at funerals. In every photo album is pictures of people in caskets. Most of them looking awfully pasty. Not really a photo op for most families. Then again...

Cameras? We just forget them. Plus we always know that Mike will bring his.
