Update

This should, in theory, be a very long update, but I doubt it will bee, as I have so many other things to do, and my hands are shaking so it’s hard to type, and my wrist hurts which makes it even more difficult.

I’ve almost got the Christmas shopping done, and most everything is wrapped. I am looking forward to Christmas, and am also rather sad that it has to come while we are not in our own house. I always found Christmas more enjoyable when I had my own things around me, and could set the rules on how I wanted it to work. The girls would help me decorate the house, the busy preparations for our Christmas dinner, but it is not to be this year. Really it’s okay though, as I have my girls with me, and that is the most important thing!!

The girls have a Christmas party at school tomorrow, and they will get out early, then they will be on vacation until after the 1st. It will be nice to have them home, and have some time to relax and just enjoy each other’s company. We also have several things going on while they have a break from school, including a shopping trip after Christmas.

Well anyway, I think I’m going to finish up my entries on my other blog, and call it a day. Who knows when I will have time to get back on here. Merry Christmas to you all!!!!

Toronto Hotels

Staying in one of the Toronto hotels does have some appeal at the moment, but then I don’t see much difference in that compared to what we are doing now. What I would really like to do is have my own house again, my own space, my own things around me…..I know the time will come, and soon, when that will happen, but as the days pass it’s harder and harder to wait.

Hair Vitamins

For several months or longer I have been looking for the right kind of shampoo and conditioner for the girls and I. Something with the right balance of hair vitamins, that would leave our hair clean and shiny. I think I’ve finally found a shampoo and conditioner that will do that for us. In fact the entire brand line seems to work for us, regardless of the specific type of shampoo or conditioner that we use, as long as it’s that brand, we seem to have good luck.

Office Furniture

I thought I was done Christmas shopping, but no…Dad called and told me to go get something else. I have fun shopping, but really liked the idea of being done. Oh well, guess I’m off to buy some wrenches…Not something as nice as office furniture but useful anyway.

I like buying useful things. For myself for Christmas I bought a skein of yarn, so that I can crochet myself a hat. Dad laughed at me when I told him.

Virgin Island Vacations

I wonder if virgin islands vacations are quiet. I long for some quiet peaceful moments! Things haven’t really been that hectic lately. The girls haven’t really been driving me nuts or anything, but for some reason I just feel like I need to get away. To go somewhere quiet, and peaceful and just bask for a bit.

Somehow I don’t see that happening for awhile, so I’m off for now, to curl up with my book.

Social Security Disability

My brain is fried at the moment. Can’t help but think of my back hurting, and after doing so much work in the last hour or so, well, I just can’t seem to think anymore!! Thankfully I only have this entry on social security disability to finish, and then one more, and then I’ll be done. None too soon, as I’m ready for a drink, a cigarette, a snack, and to curl up to finish the book that I’m reading.

Florida

I’ve never had any real desire to go to Florida, except to take the girls to Disney World…I’m just not much of a people person, and it seems to me that Florida is nothing but people…too many people for my liking. It is the same in other places I know, I guess that’s why when I dream, I dream of far away, lonely places that most people would never dream of, nor want to visit.

Free Web Directory

Searching through the free web directory had proved to be a bigger task than she had anticipated. Hour after hour she continued her search. Knowing in her heart that she would find what she was looking for, if she just kept searching.

Searching was something she had been doing since she was a young child, always searching, though in many instances searching for different things.

Anti Wrinkle Treatment

I took the girls to do their Christmas shopping acouple of weeks ago. They are of an age now that not only do they want to be buying gifts for each other, but they also want to be able to get Mom a gift. I don’t really see the need, as they are my gift every day, and they know that, but they also know that it’s nice to get Mom something. I just hope the day never comes when they decide that they need to get me some anti wrinkle treatment…*LOL*..I’d rather them get me a book or puzzle or something.

Insurance Marketing

I can’t say I know exactly what insurance marketing is, but sounds to me it’s when the insurance companies and agents try to convince you that you need their insurance. Oh don’t get me wrong, I see nothing wrong with people having insurance of different types, I support it in fact, or at least the life insurance so that your family and loved ones are taken care of if something were to happen. However the different types of insurance is what always confuses me.
