As if one holiday at a time isn't enough, I got a mailer from Costco yesterday featuring Christmas gifts. On the back of the mailer was a large ad reminding me to get ready for Valentine's Day! I think the merchants are probably worrying that our future economy, including the rise in prices we are already experiencing, is going to lead to a change in spending habits very soon. Get it while you can seems to be their motto.
Ara arrived in Sacramento yesterday to celebrate Auti's 13th birthday, and she will remain here through the Christmas season. She brought her puppy over in the afternoon, and it's going to be exactly as I suspected. The dogs were having a grand old time, although they didn't want to be having it out in the backyard. They chased each other around in the living room where we were sitting. I have a bad feeling about Christmas Day, but I've reached the point of not caring. I also have the feeling that my dog is going to get the biggest share of the blame for anything that happens.
On a happier note, I'm looking forward to a trip to Barnes & Noble with Auti, where she can pick out a book or two (my birthday prsent to her). She and I are so much alike in the way we love actual books over the electronic kind. Nothing beats the look and feel and smell of a new book!
With tons of things I should be doing to get the house ready for Christmas company, I don't feel like doing a thing and will probably be lazy the entire day.
See ya later!

Nope, I don't pay attention to ads anymore. I may miss the deals but I don't care. I buy when I want. My sister tells me when she had a baby, I bought a night gown set for a 12 year old. She said I told her she'll go into it LOL What was I thinking?!! The same sister told her teenage girls, their auntie had finally lost her wits when they got Christmas cards in July Lmao! Actually, I had told my son to mail a bunch of Christmas cards but he put them up high on entertainment center and forgot them. I was doing deep cleaning when I discovered the cards with stamps on them. So, I mailed them out.
ReplyDeleteRita, you are my kind of person! Except that I can't remember when I last did any deep cleaning.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can slip Ara's pooch one of Rocky's pills and put them both to sleep LOL
ReplyDeleteI might just try that, haha.
DeleteLol, I think JO has the right idea :D
ReplyDeleteIn Del Rio as soon as Christmas is over the Valentine stuff is immediately on the shelves.
Glad Ara is back in California I know how much you enjoy her visits as well as that of your other grandchildren. Maybe Rocky and the other pooches will surprise you and behave themselves.
Jeannie, Ara, and the two younger girls came over this evening. Rocky was pretty good, mostly. He loves to see them. Ara left her puppy with Donald when they came over, so I think it was a lot easier to control Rocky.
