A New Phone

Today I bought a new cell phone. I'm now the proud owner of a razor phone. I'm going to have my nephew set it up for me with lots of fun ring tones. I also have to enter all my phone numbers. That's going to be a pain. The only number I've entered to far is my husband's. He's been watching college football all day. He's happy that Iowa State won, but not so happy that Nebraska lost. I really don't care either way.

I also bought a Christmas present today. It may seem early, but I'm usually done before Thanksgiving. I'm behind schedule. Christmas is my favoite holiday (besides my birthday - which is 6 days before Christmas) and I love it when I find the perfect gift to give. To see someone open a gift that you know they are going to love is priceless.

Last year was the first Christmas without my dad. I don't think this Christmas is going to be any easier. I keep waiting for it to be easier and I'm still waiting. I'm not sure it will ever happen and I'm not sure I want it to happen.

There's a big craft fair in town. I'm going to go tomorrow with one of my best friends. Hopefully I'll find some more Christmas gifts.

I'm putting my car away for the winter. I drive a little red Miata. I got it last May. I tell everyone it was a mother's day gift from my cat and that it's the kind of car that you can have if you don't have any kids. It doesn't drive very well in the winter and when you live where I do, you can bet there's going to be snow. I thought I could still drive it in the winter when there isn't any snow on the ground but apparently there will be salt on the roads until the spring and salt isn't very good for my car...so they say.
