Random Thoughts...

It's way too quiet this morning.  Let's post random thoughts....

Re: Random Thoughts...

  • I'm baking two pecan pies tonight, and I'm wondering whether both of them should go in the oven at the same time or I should bake them separately.
  • I can't believe I've done 99% of my Christmas shopping online.  I love the stores all decorated and I haven't even been in one yet.  And now I'm done with my shopping.

  • I wish I could just call a truce with my friends and family... so I wouldn't have to buy them presents and they wouldn't have to buy me presents.  I am getting away with it for my step-brothers who I'm not going to actually see in person, but I wish I could do it for everybody.  I can't afford Christmas this year.

  • I already finished the work I have to do and just agreed to take on another project at work (which is good), except that it's going to be a really annoyingly boring task. Oh well, it's a job.

    Oh, and we do all our shopping online too. It's easier that way and I don't get sidetracked buying stuff for myself.

  • I absolutely love coming out of 8:00 meetings with more work to do than when I went in. I'm only posting right now because I'm in denial about everything that I have to get done.

  • We're being very frugal and a bit lazy with our gifts this year- most of our family members are getting framed family pics from the wedding, as well as a bunch of loose prints we thought they'd like.  We ordered a ton of prints from mpix for around $70 and I bought all of the frames from Michaels last week when they were 50% off.  For the younger ones in the family they are getting giftcards purchased with DH's credit cards, ie free giftcards. We already gave DH's family theirs at Thanksgiving since we won't see them at Christmas and they loved them.

    Another random thought... DH and I are wondering how BIL is going to do on the GMAT later this month.  Not to be cruel, but he is kind of a moron and I wonder if he'll have to retake it. I just can't picture him making it in an MBA program.

  • I have to work today going in earlier then I was going to. Hopefully this is my last day staying there till 9pm. I hate being at work till that late!! Lets hope the other girl decided to take my 2 shifts so I can work earlier and get off earlier guess I will find out in 2 hours.
  • I wonder if our landlords will be nice and grant us a 6-month or month-to-month lease when it comes up for renewal in February. We want to move to SF in June, so hopefully our 4 years of being good tenants who always pay the rent on time and take great care of the place will work in our favor. Fingers crossed!

  • I think it's pretty fantastic that it's December and I can wear flip flops and quarter length sleeves and not freeze!

     Karen- every time I bake two things at once they never turn out right.

     

  • Here's a random rant... ordered holiday cards last night thru VistaPrint and they were 50% off. Just checked my email and now they're free. Grrr.
