[QUOTE="helpangel, post: 615803, member: 7170"] I'm having a much better time then you but in the exact same boat... well except with me is cats not dogs. At least you made it to church... will take my folks Sunday, but I really miss the candlelight service they do on Christmas eve. I made baked ziti tonight for all of us, 2 of them even said GRUNT "good" so I guess they liked it. Made most of the stuff my mom has me bringing tomorrow... I know I volunteered but mom's mind is going and the only thing she brought to Thanksgiving was her apple pie (which was wonderful 20 years ago) and I was sitting across from her with a chunk of rock hard pie crust in my mouth that had no apples anywhere in there. Still trying to figure how to transport the scallop potatoes & candied yams without someone getting burnt. So anyway excuse me if I get yappy but it's late and my son isn't very talkative but in his defense he's been running a temp over 101 for 2 days. On my 3rd glass of wine watching the kitty's having a riot with their stocking toys - I emptied and washed the old ones then restuffed with new catnip (they think they are all new). What ya gonna do? I had a budget of like nothing this year, had to get creative. Was really lucky found a electonics store guy who loves antique china plates... anyway got Rachel that netbook she has wanted and needed (been hurt fighting for computer time many times) and only had to give up a couple I could care less about. My topaz earrings & necklace I haven't worn in forever that Angel is gonna flip over (real jewelry & a cool color blue). Dumped $50 into the dollar store to go with and hey I'm more confident this year then years when started in August and spent a fortune. Anyway sorry your feeling lonely tonight, seems I'm alone besides the cat's most of the time; kids are here but don't interact with me much unless looking for food. Guess I just been doing this by myself so long got comfortable entertaining myself. Hopefully tomorrow will be better for you, gonna round up the cats and head to bed. Nancy [/QUOTE]
