Christmas Tree oh Christmas Tree

Yesterday my sister, Chelsey; her husband, Robert; my husband, Robbie, and I went to pick out our Christmas tree. We went up to Robert's land to find the perfect tree. We spent about an hour looking high and low and finally found the one my sister was happy with. Once we got it home we realized we couldn't find the tree decorations, the tree stand, or the lights. So, we ventured over to Kmart to make our purchases and headed home to decorate. As we were putting up the Christmas tree we realized that the lights we bought weren't long enough. Naturally Chelsey and I sent Robbie and Robert back to Kmart to get more. This was probably the biggest mistake ever because of course they screwed it up! They not only came back with the wrong type of lights, but they also came back with 4 pairs of footed pajamas and a brilliant idea to take our Christmas photo in them. I must admit that the footed pajama idea was awesome but they got the wrong sizes so they had to return the lights and return the pajamas for the right size. It was turning in to a long night for just decorating a Christmas tree. When they finally got back from the store, for the third time, it was almost eight o'clock and we started decorating at six. Needless to say we got the tree decorated and our footed pajama Christmas photo was a success.

Creature of habbit

I am a creature of habit.  I like to have a routine and when that routine is disrupted it throws everything out of wack.  I like going to the same store to buy groceries, I like dinning at the same restaurants, I like setting my alarm for twenty minutes before I get up so I can hit the snooze button twice.  Routine comforts me.  Some may call it boring, but I call it steady and reliable.  So when change does happen in my life, I hate it, most of the time anyway.  I work at Hot Shot espresso and we are opening up our third store this Wednesday.  I didn't think I was going to get moved down to the new store, but I just found out that I did.  Of course I am not ecstatic about this because I like my same old routine at the store I always work at. Hopefully it will be a good change, but time will tell.
