i so do not like Mondays.

especially Mondays that i have to work.

which is pretty much every Monday.

Husband spent all of yesterday doing homework. i did laundry, two loads in the dishwasher, fixed a clock i altered for a friend AND did some shopping, while wondering what i'm getting a friend i work with.

and no, i still have no idea.

Christmas is such a wonderful season. the only time when the world seems united by the feeling of joy, peace and love that always feels palatable this time of year.

it's just the freaking shopping that drives me up a stinking wall.

everyone has people on their list that are hard to buy for. some of my friends are dang near impossible.
and it's not as if she doesn't give hints. oh noooooo.

we can go shopping for someone else (or something else) and she will walk the aisle ooohing and awwwing over stuff she likes. she will ask for gift ideas for you, and then turn around and tell you what she wants as well.

it's a little annoying to me, and i'm not sure why.

i'm trying to get over it. after all, this is the Season of Giving, not the Season of Getting an Ulcer.

although sometimes the two walk hand in hand.

happy shopping.
