I posting way earlier than I exspected to; it's about 12:30 my time. But no guests have arrived and I'm enjoying this peaceful, full belly moment, before it gets all crazy. I gave mom and Ted their stocking stuffers, which I said Santa left and that's why I needed to run out yesterday and get Lamar... Sign in to see full entry.

My Eve!
I'm watching a Mystery Diagnosis marathon. I finished my shopping, ate one of my beloved Pennsylvania cheesesteaks, and help make two batches of cookies. Not a bad Eve! After I finish posting this, I'll wrap two gifts I just found (mom and Ted are getting so spoiled this year, just like they've done... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm hiding in the computer room of my parents house, feeling overstimulated and over-peopled and needing a little me time, so I'm getting it by posting here. I really tired so I'll probably nap at some point today. My eyes feel like they are full of sand. I finally figured out how to make my... Sign in to see full entry.

I am almost ready for my last day of shopping- 3 more gifts to go (Chuck, my brother's birthday- it the 23rd, his stepson, plus I need my brother's stocking gift and some lottery tickets). I really need to eat more vegetables because my bowels aren't acting well, but that's probably TMI. I got an... Sign in to see full entry.

Christmas
I'll be back in Pennsylvania tomorrow. I hope Blogit will work from parents' house. I should go to sleep soon; as I need to get up in six hours and 15 minutes. I'm feeling better. Cold medicine is a wonderful invention. I hope I'll have enough time in the morning to wrap some of the gifts. I also... Sign in to see full entry.

Bills and Filling Ill!
I cashed by check today. Paid four bills- $200 to Mike, $150 to electric company, $100 for Elaine, and $32 to ADAPT Utah. The biggest check I've ever gotten is nearly gone and will be once I've finished my shopping; I've got $114 left. I hope it's enough to buy everything and open an account at...

Presents...
I got my Disaboom check today. Tomorrow, I open a local account for despositing. I picked a present for Laura; I'm donating to DREDF in her honor. That's such a Laura present- doing good with no harmful environmental packaging. Tomorrow, it's the mall to finish shopping and maybe getting a new... Sign in to see full entry.

Story Idea!
It's going to snow- again- I'm excited to work on my Santa story about a little girl (who I think is named Chelsea) and her twin, but might change to older brother Charlie. Chelsea has CP and uses an electric wheelchair. She seems like a pretty happy kid, but can't always accept her disability. So,... Sign in to see full entry.

Tonight!!
I love Food Network. I'm waiting for more snow and ice and Lee and Laura to rescue me from my no PCA situation. I just poured myself a glass of iced tea and am much happier now. I was terribly thirsty. I traded some more books for two pictures (that I'm going to base stories on) and brought my first... Sign in to see full entry.

Debt, Shopping, and Gifts...
I made a tax appointment today. I'm so confused by all of this stuff and need some help. I still didn't get my Disaboom check- $600! I planned to repay $422 of debt ($200 for Mike, $200 for Elaine, and $22 for ADAPT Utah, less than I planned, but stuff happens). That'll leave me about $170 to shop... Sign in to see full entry.
