We have been promised some more definite information come next week. Keep your fingers crossed for me out there.

We have become quite close this past year and so. We have started eating lunch together most days and have gone out a few times after work on a more personal level, which has been fun. I don’t have a lot of friends here, I left all of my friends when I moved down here almost 7 years ago. It’s hard to make new friends when you are a mother and work full time, there isn’t a lot of time for me and my needs, so it works out well to have a good friend at work considering how much time we spend at work.

It was so cool to draw her name at out Christmas gift exchange this year since I knew what would really float her boat this year. So many times you get stuck with a name for someone you really don’t know or like and it can be tricky finding the perfect gift. I really hate just buying a generic gift for anyone, putting a little thought and consideration can go a long way when you buy a present for someone.

Today’s fur vests are cool also, something that I’ve been interested in checking out for some time so I’ve been looking at fur vests for sale as well on the good old World Wide Web tonight. We have had a very mild winter so far, but I just know that we will be paying for that later on down the road and I’d like to have nice warm outer clothing on to help keep me toasty warm. Cold weather and I just don’t see eye to eye these past couple of years so I’m grateful for the mild winter so far. But nothing good lasts forever, am I right?

Man I can’t wait for spring.

I just might call in some professionals, what with Christmas in less than two weeks I really have my hands full. I may have to go online and look for a place that can use activated charcoal for odor removal if the odor is too bad for me to stomach. I’ve used http://www.thesteamteam.com/austin-cleaning-services/  in the past and have been happy with them and what they have done for me in my previous times of need through out the years of home ownership. There is never a good thing for something like to happen but there certainly are worse times and right now is a pretty bad time, argg…

I have no intentions of going out to the local retail girl clothing stores at the mall, that is just not an option. I don’t deal well with crowds and from what I understand they have started to play Christmas music at most of the stores and the mall, gag me with a spoon. So I have to get busy and start really pounding the keyboard to find some good quality, but affordable girls clothing for my daughter that she will like and wear. This good be a challenge, she is getting to the age that she really would prefer to pick out her own clothes, but she has such expensive taste that it becomes a struggle and a power play that I’m just not up to dealing with these days.

I would really like to see games get back down to under $20. If they were more affordable I would be more inclined to buy them and have a larger collection.

The only guy in the family that I know what they have their wish list is my son who has been looking at some electric bb guns for some time now and pestering the crap out of me to buy for him for either his birthday, which is in December, or as a Christmas gift. I’ve discussed it with his Dad and we have decided that now would be an all right time to get him such a thing. He is a good kid and pretty responsible, but I still get a bit anxious when I think of him with any type of gun, bb or not.
