I do love the holidays even when time is a bit crazy. My shopping is done but I am wondering about cooking cookies and such. I would just bring them to mom's or work (both of course would love it). Cooking has become an expensive habit. Pecan Pie Bars are probably a $20-25 effort.
Decorating is done and I did take a trip to an old favorite to save $$, Pic n' Save (now known as Big Lots). It is fun to dig around.
It will be so much fun to have the kids home. I have already had 2 very eventful parties. API had a big bash at the Dana. Food was great (always choose vegetarian at these things, meat loses a lot when it sits) It was fun to see folks out of their scrubs and all dolled up. The party at my house was fabulous. I had a few of those moments when I sit back and smile inside at how much fun my friends have in my house. the rush I get is better than any drug, booze or other indulgence.
We really flooded out yesterday and it is still wet today. Time to hit the shower and get ready for another night of (barely) controlled insanity!

About Me
- sammie96
- I am entering the midlife term with my elderly mother in tow. I left my eastern hometown for a reason but all my brothers and my sister died before me so now I have mom. I put myself through nurse's training first as an LVN and then as an RN. I did this while being a single parent of a lovely, educated and kind daughter. I learned that there would be no one ther to kill spiders for me and that I had best learn to do it for myself. I can do plumbing but I hate it. I enjoy light electrical, painting, acid staining concrete and many other home improvement projects. I am also a really good cook. My friend Pat gave me the best compliment, she said "sometimes you must get disappointed when you go to a restaurant".
