Goodbye to Meatball....

Well Meatball will be leaving for his new forever home tomorrow! I have such great satisfaction in knowing that we were able to save his life, and he got a second chance at life. I am so happy for him! I will not however miss the barking day and night from Guapo who absolutely hated having a new dog in the house. I hope that we will again some day be able to foster and save another dogs life.

I went to the Dr's today and got all my med refills. I'm very happy w/ my Dr and how easy they make appts available to me. I called yesterday and they were kind enough to work around my work schedule and make and opening for me before lunch. Most of all, I love that there is never a long wait. I'm always in and out of there within 30 mins. No waiting in the waiting room for 30 min, then getting back to room and then waiting another 30-45 min. I love small town Dr's!

Work has been so good this week. No complaints in that department. Everyone has been in a fairly good mood. I do however hate all the stupid drivers that I have to deal w/ to and from work. I can't believe how ignorant and inconsiderate they are. All I ask is that you do the speed limit and don't cut me off, or slam on your breaks in front of me for no given reason other than you and your friends think it is funny. I used words that I never used on a girl yesterday, who 7-8 times felt the need to cut me off, nearly clipping my front end and then slamming on her brakes in front of me all for the entertainment of her friends. That or she just wanted and or was hoping I would hit her so that she could get a new car. Sorry idiot girl, I have really good reflexes when I am driving. Husband would absolutely kill me if I wrecked my car, and probably not once ask if I was OK.

Christmas is so close and I am so not done shopping for it yet. I have no clue what to get my husband. Any ideas for me? I wanted to get him something for his Jeep that he just got a few weeks ago. He wants seat covers, but when we were looking at them they were like $400. Sorry honey, I just don't have that kind of money, though I wish I did. I don't know what to buy the man who has everything. He doesn't say "I want" w/ out going out and buying it after finding the best price. Bless you husband for leaving me nothing to buy you. I do have one idea of what to get him for Christmas from the kids. I am going to take them out and take pictures and get a calendar made for him. What do you think? Is that a good idea, or is it something only a woman would like? Hmmmm...what about one of those digital photo frames? Is that maybe something a man would like, or is that a chic gift to? I am so absolutely bad at this gift giving things. I still haven't a clue what to buy my son. He's hard to buy for as well. All he wants is video games, but 1 they are expensive and he'd probably only get 1 or 2. And 2 I'm sick of him only ever wanting to play video games. He needs to learn there is more to life than just video games. What is it w/ boys and only wanting video games? Do they not realize that they are expensive?

I'm realizing each year more and more, we have no real family traditions at Christmas and I just don't know what to do. What are your family traditions? Maybe I will steal and idea, that is if you don't mind of course.
