Cleaning day

Got up later than I should have and spent the morning getting ready for the cleaners. Took my laundry down, did the dishes, moved stuff around, things like that.

The cleaners came around 2:30. They did a good jjob, though truthfully I don't think as good as last time. But it looks nice.

After they left I texted mashfanficchick and she said they were going out to the Tanger Outlet Mall and did I want to come along for more last minute shopping? So we went to the Tanger Mall and ate there. I had shrimp scampi linguine. It was delicious.

Then we went to the Christmas Tree Shop and I got some stuff including two holiday pillows for the couch with pictures of penguins on sleds on them. Then we went to a candy store, i didn't get anything there.

After that we went to Barnes and Noble and I got something for Oldest Brother, and something for mashfanficchick's mother, and except for a gift card for Denise, that finishes my shopping. Well, unless I see something tomorrow.

Came home, and that's all there is to that.

Day before Christmas Eve

Spent most of it shopping with Oldest Brother for last minute presents and stuff for tomorrow. Most of our time was spent in Target, but we also hit the drug store for my prescriptions, Home Depot, Shop Rite, and picked up my laundry.

Came home and Skyped the FWiB while Oldest brother took a nap. Then had pizza for dinner.

Since he left I've been wrapping presents.

The Kid called this morning with some questions about Christmas things, and mashfanficchick did too, this evening.

knock wood, all seems to be falling into place.
