But I know that it will come together so I'm not too worried about it yet. I'm saving that for NEXT WEEKEND!!!!!!!

Diana - your post is funny!

Janet - after I sent this thread I remembered you trying to get out but unable to due to bad weather every weekend. I also thought of you when I was eating at Red Lobster because I remember it being one of your favorite places to eat. I believe it was your hubby who gave you a gift to go there one day for your Birthday?

Judy - Toys R Us today was an absolute mad house. So much NOT the place I wanted to be today. I suggest you wear full body armor when you go cuz those insane folks will knock you down.

Tink - I think a good Christmas present for you this year would be a quiet weekend in a cabin tucked away in the woods, all quiet and stuff!

I was wondering when you were gonna finish. None of us here have seen your Christmas deco pics yet. All waiting very very patiently! LOL

I know, I know! I tell you we have had things we've HAD to go to like you wouldn't believe!! Last week I had play practice for 2 days, performed the play for 2 days, on Sunday night we had a cast party, had the school's Christmas pageant last Thursday, had little kid's play practice yesterday, their performance today, and a Christmas party at church tonight. Besides Christmas stuff my daughter decided to go to the Christmas dance at the last minute so we borrowed a gown and I'm trying to turn it into a size 4 from a size 9-10....which I've done but I have to do some work on the hem to make it shorter. I'm hosting Glen's family party here at the house on the 29th and my family on Jan. 5th. And........I still have to figure in some shopping time if I can keep my sanity!!!!! And then, hubby wants to "cut back on Christmas gifts"!!!!!! Great idea.........WHERE? Anyway the pictures are coming!!! Honest I'll find time somewhere!!!

BTW--Has anyone found any marbles? I'm losing mine!!!!! And if you hear something that sounds like a really loud scream............don't worry.............it's just me letting off steam!!!!!! OMG--I think that the panic is setting in!!!!

My goodness Diana you are really busy!!! I bet those pageants are really great though aren't they??

I don't know where you find the time but it sure sounds like you are doing a great job at accomplishing it all!!!

Ok, so when I hear a scream I will raise my wine glass and drink a toast of relaxation for you! Hang in there, it will all be over soon.

The pagents and plays were great and I have pictures, if I ever find time to post them. And I realized later that I forgot a couple of things from my list. You would think that living in a small town we would just be sitting around with nothing going on but that's not so. Our church is a very active church and we keep really busy with activities there.

I'm calming down a little bit today. My husband and I are going to Wichita to work on our Christmas lists!! I won't be home until Tuesday night. Wednesday I HAVE to get Jaci's dress done!!!

Have fun in Wichita Diana and drive safely!!
