Super-D-Dooper Tired

I went to bed around 11:30 last night and woke up at 4:37 this morning. :( I really tried to go back to sleep but it just didn't happen. Right now it's a little after 8 and I'm fighting to stay awake. I know if I go to sleep right now I'll do the same thing in the morning. ARRGHH!

I quietly got on out of bed and shut the bedroom door so I wouldn't wake Marshall up. I got out my Christmas cards and sat at the table and filled out some more of them while I listened to Frank Sinatra belt out some Christmas tunes. The CD was my present from Kandi and I sure have been enjoying it. :)

I got some of my Christmas wrapping done and actually had a good time doing it since my buddy Chrisi gave me some wrapping pointers the other day. Thanks, Chrisi! :) Chrisi taught me to use a LOT of tape. She uses so much that she even tapes the tape. ;)

And speaking of tape, I just want to thank the people at Scotch for making the handy-dandy Scotch Pop-up Tape Dispenser. What an awesome invention. It just slides on your wrist like a bracelet and pre-cut pieces of tape are inside it and you just pull off what you need. It eliminates a lot of time that I usually spend searching the area around me because I constantly lose the tape. I do have to admit that I still looked for it two or three times before remembering that, duh, it was right there on my wrist. :) Now if there could only be attachments for my scissors and pen, I'd be all set. :)

Cain worked today but he's feeling worse than he did on Friday. He's coughing pretty hard. I hope that he doesn't get as sick as he usually does during the holidays. Poor little guy. :(

And my OTHER child, the mean one, could've already been home, sitting beside me on the couch, but NOOOO, she had to stay one more night w/her boyfriend. :( She really is a brat. It's ok though because Santa's watching and she will probably end up getting a few lumps of coal and that's it.
