okay, okay, I'll write in here already...

I know it has been a week since I last wrote. I also know that those of you who attempt to read this would like it if there was some consistency to my blogging. And even though it is the Christmas season, to those of you I say Bah Humbug.

Now it's not that I am anti-Christmas. I am just so exhausted from trying to get ready for Christmas. I have been up til midnight or later every day since at least Thursday. That is just wrong. But there is so much that I need to get done. Of course, one of the biggest things for me to get done is to finish the present for my parents that I have been working on. (I am pretty sure that they don't read my blog since they don't use the computer often. But just in case, I won't mention what it is.) The next biggest task is wrapping gifts. Now I started on Friday night, I think. I wrapped 12 that night. Then the next night I wrapped 10. Yesterday I think I wrapped about 5 or 6 (not as many) and I still have the main gifts for my family and Amanda and our drawn names left to wrap. Although, I think that Carin said that they were going to keep Lukin overnight tonight after we do Christmas with them. That way she can be home around 8 am when her father stops by. That would be great because then I can wrap some more gifts and get some decent sleep.

Of course, there is a certain amount of cooking that needs to be done too. Tonight, I have to make some bars for work tomorrow. I am going to make Oatmeal Carmelitas. They are really good. I hope the staff likes them as well. And not that making those bars will take a long time but I also need to make some more baby food before we go to North Dakota. We have Broccoli, Cauliflower, Carrots, and Parsnips in the fridge for veggies to make and apples and pears for fruit to make. I want them all done by Wednesday (fat chance) so that if we leave Thursday after work, everything will be ready.

So, this weekend I colored my hair again. It is very red. Of course, that's what the box said it would be, but usually they are not so vibrant. Maybe it's because I have been posing as a redhead for so long that the red really takes in my hair. I was worried about the color though because the stuff was coming out the bottle, when I first started applying it, as a Kool-Aid orange color. Yikes!

Well, I am going to go. I don't have any work to work on, except for my post-observation worksheet and I could work on stuff for my other school, but I am too tired to try to think that hard today.
