Thanks for the words of concern & advice Erika and aggie! So far my doggie has enjoyed pigs ears without any trouble, but I will look into alternative treats bc I would hate for something like the big "D" happening!

You know, I just realized that I need to sit down and make a list!!!! I was out getting some more lights today and my brain started to swell just thinking about all the people I have to buy for.....I have Brent, Paige & Coulter, my aunt Cathy's 2 kids, my friends Julie, Jeanine, Debi, and Aimee, Jeanine's daughter, Debi's (as yet unborn) daughter, Aimee's daughter, my dad & stepmom, my stepsister's (as yet unborn) baby, my nephew Logan, my mother-in-law, and I think that's it. I'm sure there are others I am forgetting, though. Paige is easy....she wants every toy currently available in stores. PLUS she wants some new school clothes (mind you the child has only been in school for a month!!!) OH I also have to buy something for my big hairy worthless stinky heap of monkey dung dog, Ajax. Plus there is the decorating, the cleaning, the baking, the visiting, the cards to send, the children's pictures to distribute, the parties......AAAAARRGGH! I thought Christmas was supposed to be fun and relaxing!!!!!!

I've changed my mind about my gift....I want a week at the Golden Door spa.....ALONE!:p

I dont have a significant other to shop for and I havent done my christmas shopping yet for the family. I'm going to Puerto Rico for Christmas and spending a week there. My sister in laws family is from there. Its going to be a blast.
