It's that week again...Dennis is off to Indy until Thursday night. It is also that time of year I start to get anxious. I am realizing that Christmas is around the corner and while I love Christmas I always start to get anxious around this time thinking of all the shopping I have to do. In the beginning of the season it is so overwhelming, especially to someone like me who doesn't like shopping. Don't get me wrong I love giving people gifts and I love receiving gifts (who wouldn't), but the process of actually deciding what to get and searching around for the right gift is something I dread. Well, I am realizing that a lot of people have already started and are way ahead of me. I haven't bought a single gift yet, or even have a single thought yet as far as what I am going to buy. This years count...23 people to shop for, and that doesn't include stockings, teacher gifts, and other holiday party gifts....UGH!!! I better get to work!
Well, I spent the day searching on the internet looking for inspiration of what to buy the boys and came up empty. When I wasn't doing that I was spending time with Logan and doing some more studying for the home study course I am taking.
I then got very brave and took the boys out for Chick-fil-A spirit night to benefit Colin's school. This could have been a disaster, just the 3 boys and I, but it was a surprisingly calm dinner. No tears, no fighting, no tantrums...I will call that a success!
