found my santa in the back yard ROFL  i'm so glad!

 

that sucks about the bulk store.  we only have bulk candy and nuts at our grocery store but i used to go to one in maryland that had spices - boy that was nice!  if you only needed a teaspoon or whatever.  i do like buying one or two pieces of candy for decorating cakes or special desserts, like buying one hammerhead gumi shark for my pirate cake and only paying 6 cents but i don't know if a bag of them was cheaper or not.  you'd think just the word "bulk" should mean cheaper per pound!

 

the snickers fudge looks really yummy.  i think i may try it after christmas altho by then hopefully i'll be eating better.  i'm not a huge fan of snickers but the fudge sounds good. 

 

speaking of eating better, i had to buy a SACK to cover my huge body today at fashion bug.  man oh man. i'm the biggest ever.  sigh...

 

good luck calling andrea's mom - it is nice to be able to leave a message instead of talking to her directly - then you can read from a script or whatever.

 

i got my errands done except the bank but i'll just ask scott to take care of all of it at work thru the credit union instead.  my cleaning job checks i usually put in a separate local account which we use for vacations and christmas or whatever but i need to get these checks deposited - i have a very bad habit of holding their checks for months which makes me look really bad and careless (and it is bad and careless).

 

i also didn't go to hallmark yet.  hate going to the mall!  and once i bought the fashion bug hefty bag shirt, i no longer needed to go to jc penney so to go just to return that ornament didn't do it for me - especially when i'd have to turn left out of giant's parking lot and the parking is very poorly designed so everyone going left was all bottled up and the line was about 30 cars long - the light only lets about 5 through at a time.  easier to just come home and i did okay anyway.  didn't get the presciption either because they hadn't called it in yet but i called afterward and they are doing it now.  don't need it 'til 12/22 so that can wait.

 

got my socks for puppets.  i so do not have energy to be creative with my sock right now - i will probably just wait and try to do mine with the kids but i doubt i'll be able to - they are all going to need help gluing with the hot glue guns.  crap i just remembered i need to find my other hot glue gun but at least i remembered to buy glue sticks.  my puppet will have gold curling ribbon for hair and i was hoping to glue some false eyelashes i have to ping pong balls to mimic my large protruding eyes hee hee.  and a little blue neckerchief with a bling-y slide holding it together.  this would be fun if i had time and energy to actually do it!

 

no more chatting for me.  back to work!
