Yard Sales, Lumpiness, and Stuffing.

My mom is doing a yard sale on Saturday, and I am joining her. The only problem is, as I go around my house....instead of finding treasures, I am finding garbage. I thought about it, if I had wonderful things lying around unused, then why would I be living in garbage??? But, there is good here. As I look for things to sell, I am going through boxes and piles around the house. And the piles are going away, because I am throwing most of this stuff out. I may not get any money, but I am getting all kinds of freed space in my house. And just in time for Christmas

I still feel kind of lumpy today. I did some scrapping yesterday and that felt good. I did a little cleaning too. But I feel lumpy. I think it is because my sleep schedules are all screwed up. Either I am sleeping too much, or not enough every night. I may just take a nap today.

I still need to get Cory's birthday presents. He wants beanbag chairs. Do you know how much a stupid sack with some pellets in it costs these days? Yikes! To get a decent size and reasonably full chair, it costs $100+ dollars. I have found a few cheaper at Target, so I am going to check these out. There are some that are really cheap,$29, but I wonder about durability and comfort in them.

Does it feel like Christmas to you yet? I am not feeling it. I can't even blame the weather this year because we are having a cold snap. It's getting down into the 60's during the day! BRRRRRRR!! We had to put away our shorts! And our flip-flops! And the heater is on! But, no Christmas spirit. I wrapped gifts yesterday. Still nothing. Maybe tomorrow. I will begin reading from the Christmas book. It's a book filled with a different Christmas story, song and scripture for every night from December 1 to December 24. We made them at church years ago. I covered my book with fabric, and I used to give them out as gifts each year. Now....too much trouble :) I give out frames and cookies and popcorn. Bah HUMBUG!!!
