Took the kids to the mall today, guess I have a death-wish or I really am a martyr We got up there at 8:45 a.m. so all the good stuff was gone. We really only wanted one thing, a giant star wars lego set at Target on sale for $59 instead of $99.
Nathan wanted to buy it for his dad for his birthday in 3 weeks. We always buy Dan some kind of kid-centered gift, last year it was some transformers...he likes it though, makes it special for him and Nate especially to play with Dan's birthday presents
As I said it was sold out so instead we got some Christmas decor. Got a string of lights to put up in the kids' bedroom window, with a remote-control outlet device. The one outlet in their room (grr....older houses!) is behind their dresser, so to plug in the lights each night you'd have to move the dresser. So I got the remote control so the kids can turn the lights on/off themselves. Also got each kid a Disney ornament to add to their "Disney Tree"--a 3 foot tree we put up in the play room that is entirely disney ornaments.
Bought some gifts for my nieces for Christmas at Toys R Us. It was a pretty productive morning but it is already one, just got home, and need to clean up!
That is the one good thing about not going with Dan to his family Thanksgiving tomorrow--I will have 12 uninterrupted hours to clean and organize the house and work on the project for my night class. Sounds boring but I am sooo looking forward to it!
Guess this is more journaling than anything...let's see H did call me twice today. First time to tell me his mom offered to look for that Star Wars Lego set for us. I missed the call, ok I ignored the call while at the mall, but when I called him back that is what he said he had called for. I told him we were already out at the mall and it was sold out. Then H called about 2 hours later, I was messing with my ringtone settings when he called, I thought I pushed his ringtone button on accident so I turned it off, then realized I had actually just hung up on H! Oops...He called back though. Said "Thanks for hanging up on me!" I told him it was an accident, he said his mom was out shopping now and would look for that Lego.
Gee, isn't that what he told me the FIRST time he called?
