Snow, snow, and yes, more snow!!

In my almost 29 years of life, I have never seen this much snow on the ground in this area! At least not that I can remember. It's crazy!! It's like a foot deep walking out to my car. I ventured out today for only the 2nd time in the past couple days. My dentist appointment was canceled but I met Mom Vanessa for lunch and did some shopping. I bought myself some boots so now I can walk somewhere if I have to and I LOVE them!! Mom gave me a Christmas ornament that said "daughter" on it which totally almost made me cry! She knew my Mom always gave us ornaments and thought I should have one. When I showed my ornaments to my kids at school I told them how special they were to me and how I wouldn't be getting any more. So this meant a LOT to me!

It's right up there with Shelley taking over the Advent calendar tradition and her and her sister are also going to get me a stocking every year. *sigh* I feel loved!!

On a down note, my Dad will NOT be making it home for Christmas. He's stuck in Arizona and said he's going to try to get a flight next Monday. BAH HUMBUG!!! That's what I say to that! But now that I've had a day or so to prepare for that possibility, I'm not as crabby. I'm trying to decide where I want to go since I've had so many invites.

I'm going to just hang with Shelley and her sister on Christmas Eve I think cause it's close and nothing fancy.

I'm thinking we'll do our family thing on New Year's Eve maybe, but my brother might be busy. I just called him and he's being as ass...SHOCKER! He said if we could do a late brunch and our dinner on New Years Day, that would work for him. Yeah, right...I'm not cooking 2 meals in one day. And then he hung up on me. He expects us to cater to him because he's the least flexible. And he never does anything besides show up. He won't do dishes and wouldn't be early enough to help cook. WTF!?! After he hung up I texted him "real mature" and then he wrote back "fuck off." Well happy holidays to you too! :P
