MISLETOE 2007!!

Well, Misletoe has come and gone for 2007. I had my shift Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m, which is fine because I did all shifts in one day. I am truly amazed at how many women can fit under one roof. It is fun just to watch all the ladies come and go with arms full of stuff. Things these ladies can't live without. I did a little shopping myself, but only a little. Compared to all the other ladies and some men, I didn't get anything, just one or two small bags. I have thought about one car load of ladies I was watching load the car. I think there was about four or five ladies in one SUV from LA and they took about an hour just to load and unload the car so that all the gifts and ladies could fit into one car and head back to LA. It was a funny site.

Saturday rolled around and the Ainsworth family didn't do one thing. Which I am thankful for, because from here on out every weekend we have stuff to do. I had to return something to the mall and Ms. Mamie wanted to come with me. Well, I made the mistake going by Libby Lou and Ms. Mamie just had to go in. She touched everything in the store, she wanted to get her hair done and we just didn't have time and on top of that they were having a birthday party for a little girl. LET'S JUST SAY IT WAS WILD IN THAT PLACE!!!!!!!!!! I told Mamie that I would think about bringing her back Sunday after church. Well, after church she kept on and on about wanting to get her hair done. So I gave in and took her to get her hair done. She had sooooo much fun and I am glad that I took her. It gave me time just to be with her. I told her since she got her hair done she could wear it to school on Monday. She was very excited about that. So she woke up Monday with her hair still in a bun and she was ready to go. If I could afford it, I would have her hair done everyday just to get her out of bed so fast.

I was off yesterday for Veterans Day and I had a good day. My friend Jennifer got me back into sewing and I am loving it. I have made about 5 pair of pants for Nolan and about 2 pair for Mamie. I need to learn how to applique and then I will be ready to go.

I am just glad that Misletoe 2007 has come and gone, that I got to spend some much needed time with Ms. Mamie (Nolan's time is coming) and that I am back into sewing. Oh, and I am LOVING my new job.

I'm so glad that you are enjoying your new job. I went to Mistletoe with Billy's mom, but I really didn't find that much this year, but Billy would say that was a good thing. Savannah also loves Libby Lu. Why aren't they as excited when we do their hair as they are when someone else does it?
