Bizzy Az Beez

I'm sleepy today, so I've found myself thinking fondly of catching some z's. That will come later, there is too much to do now!

I work every day this week except either Thursday or Friday (I can't remember which off the top of my head), I am planning to do schooling with the kids in the afternoons when I get home, with the exception of tomorrow. I will get home around 11:30, and then the twins and I will be off and running to take care of the appointments we have tomorrow.

Today after I got home, it was evident in a matter of seconds that #2 was in a mood that was not necessarily bad, but definitely not good. Unfortunately I have learned from experience that trying to do school work when he is in this kind of mood is nothing but a fight from the get-go. So... we went Christmas shopping for #3. #1 and #2 both have bought their gifts for #3, and we looked around for ideas for Hubby. I'll be taking #1 and #3 out after Hubby and #2 leave for Civil Air Patrol here in a little bit, and see if we can get the gifts for #2 taken care of.

It probably won't happen, but it would sure be nice to have all my Christmas shopping done early this year! Of course, when I say early that translates to before Christmas Eve.

OK, time to get the kids moving towards the car since Hubby is making It's time to leave #2! noises.

Hmm, maybe we'll hit Taco Bell for dinner while we're out...

    I'm not even going to try to keep track of your Christmas shopping. Who's shopping for Allimom?

    Get some Smucker's Dove Ice Cream Topping and pour it over your peppermint ice cream. It's gooder-n chocolate ice cream. Comes in milk and dark chocolate.

    My husband's favorite was lemon ice cream with chocolate syrup.

    If the peppermint candies were Jr. Mints, I'll sign the petition....

    RYC: Thanks for the advice. I actually did go to the stores websites and struck out there, too, which I'm assuming that if they don't have 'em online, there's no hope that any will be shipped to the stores.

    I did get lucky and found one on eBay that I think will do the trick and it's in microsuede, which I dearly love for the snuggle factor!

    Im not a fan of peppermint myself but I know we have something like what you are talking about over here. Little peppermint balls coated in chocolate in a mix of peppermint and chocolate icecram. I used to work for the main ice cream company and every year they ran a staff competition to come up with new flavour ideas and also took in suggestions for the public. Maybe you could try writing your favourite brand with the idea?

    It is a busy time of year. I have started my shopping but I need to finish. I hope you enjoy your week as busy as it is. God bless.
