8 Days!

Only 8 more days until Black Friday!!!! Woo hoo! I'm beyond excited! I don't really have a desire really to go to the galleria this year. I'm not thrilled w/ the KB sale so I don't need to go there first. I'm thinking we need to be lined up at Circuit City or Best Buy first. Which ever one Lee doesn't go to we should. I'm thinking Circuit City since it's next to the galleria. I also have to go to Toys R Us. There are 4 things that are dirt cheap that I need to get the kids for Christmas. There is only one of me so it's going to be hard to make it everywhere all at once. Too bad Mackenzie can't drive or I'd have her out at the stores too.

I am just loving the Christmas season. I went to Target today for the first time in a while and I looked at all of the decorations. It gives me such a warm feeling. I get all warm and tingly inside. The holidays reminds me of family. I only wish everyone was around me and could surround me. If only I could have a huge gathering of family at the house and could show everyone our decorations and the tree once it gets put up. It's so hard not having family around. And now I have even more family and not one single person out of the entire dysfunctional family tree live near me. Not even within 3 hours. I've got 4 1/2 hours, 7 hours to GA, 12 hours to Texas, 12 hours to Charlotte, 15 hours to Ohio. There are homes behind our house for sale. Anyone want to move down here? ... I figured as much.

Grey's Anatomy was on tonight and was fabulous as always. I can't believe they're going to have a new episode on Thanksgiving. I know I won't be able to watch it but I'll be sure to DVR it here. The songs are always so perfect and go right along with the story line. It can make you really feel the emotions of what's going on. The show always leaves me feeling wistful. I don't know why.

Tomorrow is Mackenzie's Thanksgiving lunch at Golden Corral. Lee and I are going to eat lunch with her. She is so excited about us coming. She wanted us to bring Jackson with us but we politely declined. On Tuesday they are having a pajama party. They'll be eating snacks and watching movies. Man how I wish I could watch movies all day long for a day. How nice that would be.

I wish I could bottle up what all I've felt and gone through since I met Bobbi and Brad. I hope I can forever remember what all of this has felt like. I do so wish that we have at least 26 more years to get to know each other. I am the happiest have been in such a long time. I want both of them to know how much job they have brought me. I love both of you very much for the sacrifices you made, for loving me then, for loving me now and for allowing me to build beautiful relationships. Neither of you will every know how deeply you have both touched my hear.
