Day 16/17- Timing is Everything!

I made my lists (and checked them twice) yesterday. Usually I have everything bought and wrapped weeks before Christmas. This is not necessarily a good thing because then I have nothing to do but sit back and be...gasp...patient! I'm like a kid on Christmas Eve, unable to sleep with anticipation. Only I spend two weeks doing that because I've got nothing else to do but wait. This year I've gotten organized and spaced everything out. I have a to do list for our Christmas party, some presents bought and some left to buy. My list is finished as are the days everything will be accomplished. This will probably help in making the time fun as we're having flies.

Kat and I got tattoos on Sunday. I've been wanting to memorialize some of my lost angels for a while now. I got a cluster of forget-me-nots on my left shoulder. Six of them to be exact. One for my grandma, Abuela, my cousin Tricia and friends, Erik, Cindy, Janell and Ryan. It's beautiful but a little uncomfortable to have clothing rubbing on it. Especially since it's kind of a tight and bony area. I'm freezing my backside off in tank tops. Luckily, sitting in front of the fire helps and it's feeling better today. I'll post a picture when I can.
