Getting closer! I think I will need to refuel. Everything I set out to do today, I either didn’t accomplish it or ran a day late and most certainly a dollar short. Santa told me to look at the checking account. We are looking pitiful. Santa has gone a little crazy this year. In fact we do not need to fret about how to spend next year’s bonus: that problem is solved, case closed. Hint: do not drive for a Type A personality sitting in the passenger’s side while you are running from store to store. They will tell you to turn in a space before you even get there, when to turn, how to get out of the car. It is ridiculous.
I do have my Pumpkin Jam for the fabulous Bible Study Group. Hint: if you need a prayer let them know. Awesome servants. I will need a prayer for I have been pretty much a scrooge today. But my picture in my head of what I was gonna accomplish sorda, kinda didn’t happen. Like I said, I need to regroup. Tip: clean out old coupons that didn’t get used so you won’t be thinking you will get so much off…will not happen, no rain checks on those. Yes, I did get my gift for Toys for Tots, went to deliver it and it was the day before and the day before that. Bummer! But I was familiar with the group so I went by twice; nobody there. I go inside the church, holler and find no one, but I do spot all the gifts wrapped with item on package. I laid mine down unwrapped, I’m sure they will appreciate that. But after all, I wanted my Hanna Montana Barbie to go.
Came home to see starving monsters in my kitchen, which scares me to death, I haven’t even rattled a pan yet, makes you want to run for your life. Ok, get that done and gonna prepare my Pumpkin Jam, bought the pie mix instead of the 100% pure. You add the spices. Get back in Suvy and go again. Fridge got nada done to it, in fact looks kind of like it did in the beginning, it just doesn’t stink. Gonna refuel. I have done my last Christmas card, that’s good—a list to go on to Waste Management. Tip; start thinking of yourself now, on you sprucing up for the holidays. My daughter purchased a mask and wanted me to try it. When I put it on and I saw I looked better with seaweed on my face than my own bare skin, I knew I’d better give me a little attention.

Don't feel bad, Little One. I used 4 Tablespoons of salt instead of sugar in my cornbread made in MeMa's Wagner Ware Kountry Korn Kob pan patent pending July 6, 1920
I had it buttered, honeyed, Greg said, "It's a little salty."
I smiled. "I didn't use salt."
Hint: If you have to add 3x more milk to your cornbread than any other time in your some odd years, SOMETHING MIGHT BE A LITTLE WRONG! :)
Its hard to be good. It takes more work. Keep on smiling!
lISA YOU ARE ABSOLUTLY THE FUNNIEST PERSON ON THIS And a great writer MOM
