Last minute everything

As I sat in the Dr's office waiting, I pondered the conversations going on around me.  All I wanted was a few minutes of peace and quiet - and maybe a 15 minute catnap.  But no, the chatter was on.  Everyone making a verbal list of all the stops they had to make to get everything done.  How about you?  Are you a planner and start early so that you don't have last minute errands?  Are you a procrasinator who waits til the last minute because you like the hustle and bustle?  Not sure which category I fit into anymore.

While on our way home from the first appointment this AM, my Hubby joyfully announced that we had to go to the Mall on Friday morning.  As I straightened the car out on the road and chastised him for saying those dirty words while I was driving, I politely in a loud voice asked "Are you nuts???"
He quickly apologized and then timidly asked "Why"?  OMG, could he be serious?  I asked if he really wanted to spend a great part of the morning looking for a parking place, walking 10 by 10 across, stopping every two feet for the folks in front of us, only to get to "the store" and find out they didn't have any.  Why not call?  Well, he hemmed and hawed. So I have no idea what we will end up doing but I won't be a happy camper if I have to go to the Mall on Dec 23rd.

If you are still scurrying around trying to find cute and inexpensive stocking stuffers, we have them.  Try Lavishea hand cream bar, or Lantern Moon Snowflake stitch markers; or a sanity keeper. 

And if... you are one of the lucky ones who planned ahead and can sit back and just enjoy the season, stop in a get a small project to fill the time.  We just received a new batch of Tutu and you can make a scarf in one evening.  Look!
