Selfless life

Another pending snowstorm to arrive late Saturday. Changed plans to see an old girlfriend from Sunday to Saturday. Maybe we can go to the opening of a fabulous library renovation in the area. Apparently you can even play Wii games there. They want to make the place more appealing to teenagers (vending machines, large screen TV, etc.) I notice the town has a new by-law against idling your car for more than 3 minutes. That's a good thing.

I notice the January events are starting to come up, before you know it, the calendar will be full again. We live in a stressful age, (especially us introverts (-:). I've already pencilled in 3 events.
Have to get the kids to sign the teacher gift cards and finalize all the gifts, gift wrapping and gift distribution this coming week. There's always last minute stuff to get. I realize I shop for, wrap and distribute so many gifts at this time of year, make sure no one is forgotten and ironically I may get 1 or 2 back in return. The selfless life of a woman and mother that I lead!

Well, I'm off to check the mailbox, it's fun seeing what arrives this time of year.
