Life and Times of Laurie... once upon a time Hailey Hawkeye

you cant see me, but at the moment I am screaming and pulling my own hair out.

Sunday, December 23, 2007 by laurie



I tripped on to this blog that pretty well sums up how I am feeling today.

3) If someone suggested that you take an entire paycheck, buy gifts for everyone you know all at the same time, wrap the gifts in paper that's a huge waste of natural resources, get your house in tip top shape, redecorate it, stock it with homemade goodies at random intervals throughout the month, then top it off with a day spent cooking in the kitchen, all during the season when your family is most likely to be fighting colds would you say "That sounds like the most wonderful time of the year!", or would you say "What a stoopid idea! It'll never catch on."
"Christmas leads to stress, stress leads to beer, beer leads to pissing. Celebrate Christmas and piss away your month you will. "
Maybe I'll leave the dark side and try Channakuh. Hannaka. Channukah.
Maybe I better make it Kwanzaa, because I can spell that.


At the moment my usual holiday cheer self is feeling more and more like the Grinch or Scrooge. Back to the Christmas grind stone...... your very disguntled elf, Laurie
