I'm backtracking to the weekend before Christmas.....
Oh boy, Christmas shopping ..... Ugh!!!! Each year, I find it as nerve wracking as the previous ones. It seems like every body's impatience to get their own shopping finished brings out their thoughtlessness, insensitivities. Patience goes a long way. I know I wrote about it last year about this time but just like last year mine is wearing a little thin. I try to keep my shopping trips short and at the less than busier times to avoid my stress levels peaking. Unfortunately, I was not able to do that yesterday. My mother does not like driving in heavier traffic. She's prone to panic attacks. Can't say as I blame her. The place we live has more than our fair share of idiots when it comes to driving. It can be a constant see-saw of driving offensively and defensively. You see my point.
But getting back on topic. She hates shopping at night. It seems to throw her whole schedule off....so I was forced to delve into the chaos that is only unique to Christmas shopping. Added to the mix which was unavoidable was my three year old. I give him mountains of credit. He was alot more patient than any toddler has a right too.
But thank goodness its over. I think.....
