Great Day!

I had a good day with Sandra today. We were off shopping again for Christmas and I know that she bought my gift, I just don't know what it is, although she told me I should know, because I told her what I wanted a while ago now...but I don't know. I think it might be a DVD, but I can't be sure. The fun is in the surprise anyway.

I will just have to wait and see!
We also shopped for my kids, but I came up empty handed this time out. I won an item on ebay for Kaylah, and I hope she will like that. I still need to get her a couple more things to make up the same value as I have spent on her siblings, but those will be easy to get and I can buy them online.
We went to Borders as well, where I purchased two books at half price. They are:




I am looking forward to reading these. I read Alison Dubois last two books "We Are Their Heaven" and "Don't Kiss Them Goodbye" and really enjoyed them. The other book is by an author I discovered online by accident when I was researching some spiritual stuff. Her website is great and her explanations of Spirituality really ring a chord with me, so this book has gone to the top of my to be read pile!

After shopping we had some lunch KFC (Very naughty! but only an occasional treat) and then we went to my kids' home and spent some time with James and Kaylah. Hannah was at work, but she came home just as we were about to leave. She was tired from a long shift, and headed upstairs to take a shower and go to bed, poor thing!
We made the drive home, stopping on the way for more fast food for dinner as we both felt we'd be too tired to cook when we got home.
I am loving the new sense of closeness between Sandra and I the past couple of days. Maybe we are finally going to emerge from the dark days that fell over us when her Dad died earlier this year. I pray it will be so.
Tomorrow we have weeding and house keeping to do and on Monday finally I am getting my hair cut! It's a straggly mess atm. Once it is cut, Sandra will color it for me, and then, I might feel brave enough to post a photo of my new, skinny self!

I feel loved.

Love and Light,
Meg
