Not a bad week.

I came back as promised to update you on my week. I stuck to one goal. How about that?

I started a new diet on Monday. That lasted for 2 days and the rest of the week was shot. I will be starting fresh on Monday morning so hopefully I will have better things to report about that next week.

Wednesday we got out of the office early. A bunch of the girls wanted to go for drinks. How do you refuse that especially when you don't have to work the next day. I proceeded to eat too much and not care about how that would affect my diet.

Thanksgiving was uneventful. The phone was ringing at 11:00 AM and I was woken up by that. I don't get to sleep in too often so that was nice. It was my niece asking when I was heading to my Mom's. At that point all I wanted to know was what time I needed to be there. They wanted my to come over right then and there but I finally got them to tell me that we didn't need to be there until 3:00. We ended up getting there at about 3:15. We never seem to make it anywhere on time. It was cozy. It was me and my husband, my Mom, My Aunt, My Brother and his wife and daughter, and my sister-in-law's brother and mother. My other Brother's girlfriend was supposed to come with my 2 other nieces but she never showed. That wasn't a big surprise but a bit disappointing to not be able to see the girls. We did all eat too much but we had a pretty good time. After dinner we played a few games that had us laughing pretty good.

I didn't get to bed until about 11:30 last night but we managed to get up at 3:30 AM to head out for some shopping. Nothing was a super good deal but it is a tradition for me and my husband to brave the early morning shopping the day after Thanksgiving. We usually get about 95% of our shoppig done by 5:30 AM. Today we got about 75% of our gifts bought and were home eating breakfast by 6:00 AM. I did have to go into work today so I couldn't brave more than one store so we couldn't even go out and look for anymore bargains. Before I went to work I did go to Michael's but there were too many people so I wouldn't have had time to buy anything and wait in line and still make it to work on time. They have coupons that are good for tomorrow too so I might head there and to JoAnn's tomorrow. That all depeneds on if we get more snow tonight.

We got about 2 inches of snow today. I started when I was leaving the office and snowed pretty good for a few hours. The weatherman says we will get 2-4 inches and that the rest of the weekend it should warm up and be melted. If that's the case it should make for a nice weekend of shopping. Maybe I can get the other 25% of our gifts bought. I do need to get the wrapping paper so I can get all these gifts wrapped before the weekend is done. I also will be addressing and mailing out my Christmas cards this weekend. I made the cards myself so I can't wait to see what people think of them. I think after everyone receives them I will post a picture so you all can see.

I am heading off to sleepy land pretty soon so I will leave you with a goodnight until next week. :)
