Go To Sleep My Baby...

Today has been weird. It's been super foggy all day. At lunch I went to go get some Christmas shopping done. I went to a shopping center near by that has a Wal-Mart and Cost Plus World Market and Border's and a Post Office so right now the parking lot is, well crowded. So I find a primo spot. And in it, is a lady's shopping cart she's slowly... I mean, SLOWLY unloading and has recognized the fact I'm sitting there in my car staring at her... waiting. She moved the cart, a little. But proceeded to unload her 15-20 bags of stuff out of her cart with out being considerate and maybe moving it closer to her vehicle so I could park and not keep people waiting behind me. I wasn't giving up that spot. There were no others. I called her a poo-head. Driving back to work was like driving in a 3-ring circus. People cutting me off left and right... pulling in front of me and then going like 2 MPH. Or pulling in the lane next to me and then drifting in to mine almost hitting me... all the while going about 2 MPH too. When I got my food from this two story strip mall, a guy from up stairs started talking to me... FROM UPSTAIRS. He was yelling about this crazy weather and he should've stayed in Florida and I'm looking around trying to figure out if it was really ME he was talking to... I tell you what, 'tis the season for the crazies! Sheesh! And to top it off, the already nutty coworker of mine was EXTRA nutty today, on a Monday to say the least. I'm thinking I'll go to bed early tonight!
Lately Ben's been super opposed to going to bed. That's really unlike him. He's still a good sleeper it's just getting him to get in to bed and to go to sleep that's been "challenging"... I mean, as challenging as we make it and as much as he makes it. And it's usually only about a 15 minute stint, so I'm not complaining... it's just an adjustment and new rules to follow. I think, and I don't blame him, he just wants to play!
Last night for Sunday dinner us girls decided we needed to make it a Christmassy feeling night. So we had the lights turned on, we had chili and yummy cornbread, and then we made sugar cookies and used cookie cutters and then decorated them after they baked and cooled down and I made homemade hot chocolate and the guys watch a Christmas movie (and slept). It was so fun! Everything was so yummy, I ate SO much and my stomach hurt after it all! Overall, we had a VERY LAZY weekend, but I'm glad because we needed it. Can you believe Christmas is next week? YIKES! Where does the time go?
