usmcsis's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- what day did you say it is? how the hell is it december friggin twenty third already? i mean, just the other day it was august for crying out loud. i have to run a few errands this morning so i figured i'd get up instead of snoozing until ten. i'm going to miss those two hours though. but, i can always make time for a nap this afternoon. provided that i get everything done that my mom is going to want me to do. i think i have mentioned before but i'm not sure, on christmas eve, our family gathers at our house. my aunt and uncle, their two daughters and their husbands and their kids, their son when he's home, my dad's cousin and her husband and their kids and their husbands and their kids and some great aunts usually show as well. basically it's a hugely stressful day for my mom. hugely. thank god i got her prozac refilled this weekend. not to mention the fact that she has to work tomorrow until six thirty. i get off at two so i will be able to come home and take care of all of the last minute stuff and put out all of the food once everyone starts arriving. then basically when mama gets home i can force her to enjoy herself. i guess i should correct myself and say that today is a hugely stressful day for her. since today is the day that we are both off and it is the last chance to get everything done before tomorrow and she is going to be nuts. thank god i got my prescription filled today. i just have to avoid her until it's ready to be picked up. which shouldn't be a problem because she just got up, mumbled good morning in my general direction and is currently fast asleep under the covers cuddling with both of the puppies. she'll probably be out at least another hour or so, which will give me plenty of time to get showered and get out of the house and off to do my errands. oh, by the way, telemarketers that call at eight in the friggin morning should be shot. i'm not going to make a to do list for today because i know that mama will change her mind about a million times before the day is out so there's no point really. but i do intend to finish my list that i made sunday.
