Saturday Dec 17th

Well started out the day by going to the Dentist at 8:00 am, that is right am!  Even Oliver didn't get up.  So my day had to improve, right?  After coming home and cleaning a bit I decided to go to Southgate Shopping Mal, big fat mistake.  I knew I was in trouble when they had someone directing traffic in the parking lot.  Almost 25 minutes later I am parked and ready to shop.  The mall was packed, a lot of the stores had security guards posted, well ok just the Apple store, but it was crazy and to top everything off the main reason why I went they didn't have what I wanted.  Ok now just get me home without running over someone.  30 minutes later and I am still in the parking lot waiting to turn on to 111 avenue. Memo to self never go to the shopping mall a week before Christmas!  Which is great in theory, but I haven't even begun to do my Christmas shopping.  The only thing I bought was a bottle of Little Penguin and you can bet I earned it, and I am going to enjoy every glass of that wine tonight.
