I had a horrible night sleep last night so my first day back to work after five days off was incredibly difficult. It happened to be a very busy day on top of no sleep too. It's always so amazing to me how you can have time off of work but it never seems like enough. Last night I thought I was more than ready to get back in the grind, but at 7am this morning I was not feeling ready at all. I didn't get out of work until around 4pm and the traffic was horrible. It always amazes me how noticeable the Holiday traffic starts showing a week before Christmas.
Unfortunately the big plans for tonight was that my boyfriend and I were going to go to the mall to do leftover Christmas shopping for his family. When I got home I knew I didn't have much time to piddle around so I got the sheets off of my bed and threw them in the laundry. I had been meaning to upgrade my bed blanket to my goose down comforter and I thought this week was a perfect week to do it. I really wanted to have clean sheets for the occasion so I put my spare set on. My boyfriend showed up to my house around 6:30pm and I was ready to get going. It was very busy at the mall and I am very upset to say that I didn't find half of what I needed. I really am running out of time and I'm horribly disappointed that I'm going to have to go back to the mall when all I want to do is stay home and watch Christmas movies. We ended up grabbing dinner at the mall which was good because we didn't have time to make anything since it was after 10:30pm when we got home.
I'm really not exaggerating about how little time I have left to go shopping. We are supposed to be heading to my boyfriends parents house Friday night and I don't even have a gift for his Brother yet....or his girlfriend. Tomorrow night I had planned to do my baking for the work Christmas party Friday and to bring to his parents house this weekend. I'm not sure when that will leave me to go back to the mall. Oh yeah, have I mentioned how I don't even have all of his presents yet? The only person I'm mad at is myself. I should have been a better planner and the other two times I went to the mall I should have been looking ahead. I just feel like such a failure. I guess my hands don't look that bad today really. I hardly had time to wash them because I wasn't home for most of the day. I guess that is the only positive thing about this blog tonight! I really need to start cheering up because this is usually my favorite time of year and I need to realize that I can try to do better with the presents next year and just do my best this year to be done. Alright, until next time.
