  Whew…. what a hectic albeit productive week end. We spent the week end marathon shopping in Oahu. We done good! We are just about completely done with everybody! We have to wrap and mail, and still need to order one gift, pick up a few we didn’t find, and then sit back and just enjoy the holidays!

  
  

  We also went commissary shopping and brought back about 80 lbs of meat and a bunch of dry goods like cereal. Just our grocery savings paid for our hotel, plane and rental car.

  
  

  The only bad thing was our flight home was at 6:00 am yesterday. That meant we had to get up at 4:00 am to get there in time, and then Squirt and I had tons of schoolwork, Silver_fangz had school and hubby had work. We all finally collapsed into bed starting at 9:30 — I unfortunately had to stay up till 10:30 to finish my school work.

  
  

  Yuck. I could have avoided that by doing my work before leaving, but that would show initiative and motivation — that was obviously outside of my scope last week.

  
  

  The dog and the cat were glad we were back, and for one shining moment last Friday I thought we had finally achieved Victory over the fleas… Monday morning dashed all hopes of success in the war against biting bugs,  and so the fight will continue!

  
  

  For now, I’m off to fight the Chaos that accompanies traveling and hectic days full with schoolwork — the piles of clothes, the bills to pay, the kitchen to clean….

  
  

  Man, my life just keeps rocking and rolling along.

  
  

  The excitement just is overwhelming.
