Project 25

SO...it's been a kind of a rough day. I'm sick of this weather. It's December...it's supposed to be at least somewhat cold...or at least cool. Ugh... So today I ran some errands with my mom...broke the cardinal rule and went to Walmart at Christmas... during lunch...I thought at one point that I was going to have a meltdown. Tonight mom and I went to the super Walmart to participate in the Sheriff's office's program called Project 25. I'd never heard of it until last week. It was pretty neat. Basically, you're assigned a child and you go "shopping" for the child. We were allowed to spend $75 for each child. I was pretty impressed...I was figuring it would be around $35 or so.

My New Toy!

So...it's been about a month and we've been pretty stinkin' busy. We'll play catch up some other time...right now I'm excited about my new toy...it came in the mail Friday. Ryan has been eyeing this new tiny lap tops.

The Fedex guy got here and I almost asked him if he was sure he had the right box for me. I honestly thought that there was no way it could be in that tiny box. It was. Yeah...it's freakin' small. I love it, though. The keyboard is definitely going to take some getting used to...I keep hitting the wrong keys 'cause they're so small. But other than that...I love it. Here
