Hello March. Starting the month sick as a dog thanks to my trip to Vegas. Worth it, though. Love my track family. Fun is increased when they WIN! [emoji16][emoji106][emoji469]

NASCAR'S BACK!!! I'm a HAPPY girl! Get to see my track family in Las Vegas in less than 2 weeks! Can. Not. WAIT!!!

Here for February. January did indeed feel like it lasted forever. First true day off in quite a while today and I woke up with a headache and just feeling like crud in general. Fail.

My prayers go out for the families of the nine killed in the helicopter crash that, among the nine, claimed the life of Kobe Bryant and his daughter yesterday. I cannot even imagine the pain.

We don't have Monday off at the "day job" and I'm working the side gig both days this weekend, so...? *shrug* Happy long weekend to all those that are getting one, though! Enjoy some for me, will ya?

Miss Mew is still very much enjoying the gift of the perfect sized box from our GD Secret Santa gift collection. Thought I’d share. [emoji4][emoji106]
-
Ha. Yes. We were in chairs for the photo but stood shortly after to pray in the new year. Smart aleck.

Happy new year, all! Here’s a pic from last night of the last four standing at my church party that I throw every year. [emoji4] We had a good time. About a dozen of us at the height of the festivities.

Enjoyed Christmas dinner with my dad and his “lady friend”. I insisted Dad & I get a picture together before we called it a night. Good times.

I’d like that, my friend. Would be fun to meet a fellow GD’er in person! [emoji4][emoji106]

I opened my SS box just now to lift my spirits. Because, real talk, waking up alone on Christmas year after year with no special someone to share it with, no matter how much I know I am loved by family and friends, is one of the loneliest feelings for me and I struggle some years more than others. That said, thank you so much, SS. I (and my kitties) love everything we found in the box. Cheerful wrapping paper greeted me when I cut the box open. Inside that cheerful wrapping, I found wonderful gifts for my kitties and I. Peppermint B&BW treats for me in various forms, a cat dancer and a big box of my kitties’ very favorite flavor of Temptations treats. The kitties also told me to thank you for giving them a new box to play and nap in. Mew (tortie girl) and Hodges (gray and white boy) both immediately tested it for fit. [emoji4] I’ll be headed out in a short while after I bake up a little something to take with me to meet up with my dad at his (as he calls her) “lady friend’s” place for a late Christmas lunch/early dinner around 3. (Dad and I are responsible for dessert.) No idea how I’ll be spending the rest of the day. Thinking maybe a movie at the theater to occupy my time.
-
Baking is done, all packages full of my home baked Christmas treats and gifts faithfully delivered by my FedEx elves to their destinations without issue again this year (I've been fortunate, I guess). Just have to finish up shopping for Dad (I know what I'm getting for him - just need to pick up), mail out one thing I missed as I was packing up one of the boxes (thankfully just a GC that will fit in a normal card/envelope) and I'm ready for Christmas.
-
Oh goodness! Hope it isn't lost. Had a package I shipped via FedEx go into temporary limbo over the weekend but, thankfully, it had just missed a scan. It was enough to give me a minor heart attack for about 24 hours, though, so I understand how much this must be bugging you (and the sender), Bopeep. Fingers crossed the last package is freed from whatever limbo it's in before Christmas!
-
I rarely have issues with FedEx when shipping things for work or personally. (Using the corporate acct to save some $$$ - and yes, totally legit to do it that way. Company just asks that we pay for anything we ship on the account for personal reasons. Small price to pay.) That said, the most special of the shipments I made this year is currently in limbo and I'm a wreck praying they haven't lost it and it's just the holiday volume causing the delay... It hasn't moved (according to the website) from the next-to-last stop shipments to this family usually make since 2-something this morning and it was originally scheduled for delivery today. Oof. I've already let the family know there's been a delay and gave them the tracking number so they can check up on it themselves if they want to while we wait, fingers crossed, for it to get moving again.
-
I have NO CLUE which of my friends/family might have ordered this for me but I’m beside myself... It wasn’t in my budget this year but it was something I very much wanted (as a proud member of Rowdy Nation). So. Cool. [emoji172][emoji172][emoji172]

These sound amazing! Thanks for re-sharing them so we can all swipe and enjoy. [emoji4][emoji106]

I honestly try to treat it as I would any gift to a friend and try to go over and above when I can. Doesn’t matter to me whether I happen to have seen (or otherwise know) that it might be the only gift someone might be getting. Honestly, the SS is often the only actual “gift” I open on Christmas Day but it’s only because dad and I long ago switched to just swapping GC’s to places we love so we have excuses to shop there. lol Edited to add: Good thought, though. I’ll be curious to see what other’s thoughts are. [emoji4][emoji106]

Got a box on my doorstep Thursday night that I can only assume must be my SS box (since I wasn’t expecting any other packages), so thanks, SS! Will wait till Christmas to open. [emoji4]

1) It wasn't that cheap when I was looking at it. (Dang, killer deal!!! Well bought!) 2) Web exclusive and I didn't have quite enough time (by the time I was seriously dress shopping) to feel comfortable with hunting something else down in time for my party if it didn't fit the way I needed it to when it came in. I'm the girl with several pairs of 5" heels, including a pair of beautiful silver pumps, that I could have worn with it, so the length would have been fine.

I almost bought that SAME DRESS!!! Welcome to the size 12 club (that’s what size my dress is as well)! Great work!
