Entry for November 24, 2006

Thanksgiving is over.  I hope everyone ate only what they wanted and enough of what they wanted. We had a good meal. John went and picked up Alex athe airport cus i was still asleep when he woke up.  We flew him in from Oklahoma for the holiday. When they finally got home, I grabbed him and hung on to him for too long. I cant beleive how much i miss him when he is gone. I miss both of my boys so much.  Its funny how they grow up, move out, and then we just cant seem to stop missing them. I dont especially want him right here in my house living all the time, but i do want to be able to see them when I want to.  OK, nuff of that.

I knew i would be waking up at o too early. I even thought about going out to the hoards and getting in my little bit of christmas shopping. The only add i took out was from Beverlies. That is a local craft/fabric store and they are having 33% off your entire purchase from 8 to 10. I need fabric for the back of two quilts and maybe more.  they have coupons for the whole day. I can get 40% a single peice of fabric at any time of the day. If i stay in there all day, I can just keep on using my coupons. 

 I will pretty much be doing the gift card thing this year, since my kids are both out of state.  Its probably easier and more practical to send gift cards than pay for the gift, then pay for postage and handling. I dont know, but that is how i am doing it this year.  Everyone close to me is getting a bunch of some kind of home made goodies.

I will be having surgery on my foot again. the neuroma i had cut out last year grew back and with a vengence. It feels like I am walking on a marble right under my middle toe. It kinda hurts. I will be off 3 to 6 weeks. this is happening Dec 6. I cant wait. I wont be able to walk on  my foot for three weeks, so I will be doing the cruthches thing again. That really hurts. I hate those things.  I hate the hurt in my foot more though. 

I have to work tonight. It will be ot for me, and i dont want to do it. I am hoping they call and tell me i dont have to come in. We worked Wednesday night/thursday mornign, but i got off at 430. I finally went to take a power nap at 630 and slept till 9:30. I felt good for most of the day. I sure wish i could sleep in the night like I sleep in the day. OK, Im rambling, signing off now. Have a great day.
