Two nights in a row!!

Wow, two nights in a row...I haven't done that for ages!! Today was a busy day, as paydays always seem to be. The day started out less than joyful with Mercedes not wanting to go to school. Finally 5 minutes before school started she agreed to go rather than have to spend the day in her bedroom. After I dropped her off at school I went to the video store to get some movies for the weekend. The only way to get any new movies on a Friday is if you go right after they open. From there I went and picked up Brad for lunch and then drove him around from place to place. After taking him back to work I went down to the craft store to get some crackle medium and ribbon for an altered clipboard that I'm making. By then it was time to get Mercedes. Luckily she had a great day at school so she was glad that she went.

Spent the rest of the afternoon doing other running around. This evening I finally went and laid down because I had been feeling naseaous all day with a bad headache all week long. I think it might be a side effect from one of my meds. I've also been getting really shaky lately. Sometimes it's so bad I can't even roll a smoke. I have to remember to bring it up with the dr. next time I see him.

Nothing too exciting planned for the rest of the weekend. I'm almost done the dvd slideshow, so hopefully I can buy some blank dvds, and decorate the cases so they'll be done. I love gifts that I can give to multiple people! We've decided to get Brad's parents a dvd player for Christmas so that they can play their Mercedes slideshow. lol I just can't believe that I'm being so organized this year. I usually leave everything until the last minute, but so far so good. I should have at least half done by the end of November. Maybe I'll even get a chance to do a little baking this year.

Back on the horse...

Decided it was time to start keeping up with my blog again. It'll be a good way to monitor my moods and my creativity. The weather here is freezing this last week, with lots of snow. I really dislike winter!

Last night I finished a 16 x 20 canvas that I made for my inlaws for Christmas. I also started a dvd slideshow of Mercedes pictures that I plan to make lots of copies of and give to extended family. Last year I waited until the week before Christmas so I was up all night for a couple days before the 25th last year. With the way things are going this year, I could have everything done before Dec!! I have never in my life been ready for Christmas before December. :)

Been really tired this week and had no energy with a bad headache everyday. Don't see my dr again until the beginning of Dec, so hopefully things get better before then. Well, the head is aching so I can't think of anything else right now. I'll try to be much more diligent in writing from now on.
