Surprise, Surprise!!! I’m posting and it hasn’t been a week or more since my last post! See, Christmas miracles can happen. I don’t have a lot to report. As of today, I am officially almost finished shopping for everyone and only have to pick up 1 or 2 tiny little gifts…you know…stocking stuffers for the husband, and a couple of gift certificates to complete the gifts for others. It feels good to be finished, but I must admit that I really do love the thrill of picking out the perfect gift. I hate it when people want really crappy stuff that isn’t fun to buy. My brother for instance told me that he wanted an ironing board. ?#$&%#?? What’s that all about?

Speaking of Scuba Steve, he’s been working on his degree by taking night classes and he had a paper due a few weeks back and had paid (yep, he’s awesome) me to type it for him. Well, he got his grade back yesterday and he made 100%!! I was really impressed. Of course I would like to think that it was my stellar typing skills that were the main cause for the grade, but I know better than that. LOL!

We have a busy month planned already. I was making out a calendar for the fridge since I know I’ll have a hard time keeping everything straight and WOW!! Tonight, Rudolph on TV (yippee…more for me than LittleMan, but don’t tell), tomorrow is Christmas at LuckyHusband’s job, Friday night is the Christmas Express Train in town with Santa and everything, Saturday is visiting Santa with LittleMan’s friend Hunter at the local Wal Mart (I know…cheesy, but fun…it’s the same Santa that I saw when I was little), and Sunday is the Christening of our photographer’s baby. And the rest of the month is shaping up to look exactly the same as this week!! I’ll be so exhausted when Christmas gets here!! I’m having my LASIK touched up on the 22^nd, so at least I’ll get a little rest then.

Until my next rambling post….

Melissa
Melissa-Mom to LittleMan (4/04); wife to LuckyHusband; full-time toxicologist; full-time housekeeper; full-time domestic laundromat manager (washes all the clothes); full-time domestic finance manager (pays all the bills and yells at husband for spending too much money on fishing stuff); and Keeper of the Cheerios. Lives in a tiny town; spends tons of time with family; reads; enjoys crafts. Can change a diaper, fill a sippy cup, and put on a toddler's shoes in 15.4 seconds flat, all while calculating the impact of petroleum hydrocarbons to a nearby surface water body (watch for me in the Toddler Olympics on CBS this fall). Addicted to Dr. Pepper; Kit Kats; and pasta. To spot me in a crowd: I'm the one with frizzy messed-up hair, smeared graham crackers on my shirt; huge purse with a diaper peeking out, toddler on her hip, and camera in hand at all times.
