Santa's Lil' Helper

Busy, busy, busy working on pulling Christmas together. I went shopping again last night, this time at the mall. Whew.

The best part of the night was making a stop at Spencer's. I was looking for a funny key chain- but I didn't realize just how LEWD this store has become. Oh my gosh. It's terrible. And there I am, with a big 7 month pregnant belly. I felt ridiculous. I nearly laughed out loud when one guy looked at me like I was an alien with fourteen heads. I felt like an alien. I definitely did not belong in that store. So I hightailed it out, no purchase made, and ducked into the nearest restroom to scald the heebie jeebies away. Ew. What a gross store.

Anyway- I got a lot done, but I was absolutely exhausted by the time I got home. That disturbs me. Two and a half hours of shopping shouldn't wear me out that much. It makes me realize just how out of shape I am! I am starting to miss my running days. I miss my body. I miss eating and not getting heartburn. I miss walking without wanting to rip out my sciatic nerve. I miss sleeping through the night without a bathroom break at 4 am. -Sigh-

Not to complain, though. Those things are all minor and I truly am enjoying this pregnancy. I am in the home stretch now, and I haven't lost my good humor yet. Two more months. That's barely a blink and a nod. I can hang in there. Right? Um, somebody?

Since I had my Christmas mojo going so well last night, I decided to follow through today with putting the finishing touches on some gifts I've been working on. So basically, this means we're playing hooky from school. Czarina is busy with her own Christmas project, and I've been tackling mine. Later, I'm going to wrap some gifts, too.

I'm awesome. At least according to Czarina, who enjoys Teacher Work Day like any other kid. Whoopee!

Well, that's it for now. Break's over. Man, they work us elves hard.

Not to mention how uncomfortable these pointy shoes are.

Yeah, what you said: Spencer's is downright disgusting. Amazing how my perspective of Spencer's changed once I had kids...
