St. Paddy's Day

I don't even think I OWN any green clothes, other than my camoflage pants, so I guess I'll have to wear those. I just wore them yesterday, but I wasn't thinking about St. Paddy's Day, so I'll have to wear them again and hope I don't see any of the same people.

Greg still isn't home. Not coming until tomorrow, looks like. They're going somewhere to eat and to see the movie 300 today. It'll be alright. That'll just give me more time to get the house cleaned up before he gets home. He hates a mess.

I have to go back to Wal-Mart and return some stuff I bought yesterday. I brought it home and it just isn't going to work for what I wanted. I need a new way to file my cross stitch patterns and such, but that box isn't going to do. It's not big enough for the folders. I'll have to think of something else.

Bah Freakin' Humbug

I'm not a fan of Christmas. I think I've said that before. But, I really don't like it. There are 16 days left and I haven't even started shopping! I take that back...I have gotten some of Alyssa's stocking stuffers. I managed that. All my grandparents want is an answering machine, so that'll be easy. My sister wants some Mary Kay brushes, and I already have those, so that's one that I won't have to shop for.

Speaking of my sister, I'm hoping I get to go visit her next week. I've never been to her place before. I've never even been to Hattiesburg before, so it should be big fun! She said we could go do some karaoke, which will be a blast! I love karaoke! I wanted a karaoke machine for Christmas, but I need a hair straightener, so I suppose I'll ask for THAT instead! I intend to leave Alyssa here with her daddy if I get to go, though. I love her more than life, but Mommy needs a break!! I'll miss her, but the vacation is well deserved, in my opinion! Just have to hope that neither of us get sick, cause I can't go if we're sick.

The Stockings Will Be Stuffed

I went shopping tonight and began my "stocking stuffers". I'm still not QUITE finished, but I made a great start! I want this Christmas to be great for my little girl, because her birthday wasn't so fabulous. Next year, mark my words, will be the BEST birthday and Christmas of, what will be, her five years...because Mommy is going to start early and have all kinda of things bought for her before this time! I say that every year, but I'm really going to commit myself to it! My Christmases as a child were wonderful and I want my daughter to experience the same thing. I don't think it's too much to strive for.
