I Can't Believe I Said That

I am really disliking this warm weather! The roads are muddy, the cars are dirty, the windows are covered in streaks from the washer fluid and really not clear at all! Even though the sky is blue and the sun is out as it is +2 degrees, the roads are mucky and messy and so are we! All it takes is one car in front of you and your windshield is covered and I am sure everyone is wondering if they replenished their windshield washer fluid.

I went to WalMart at noon to pick up a few things. It was unbelievable! Doesn't anyboy work anymore? I had to park at the far end of the lot and walk (not that it hurt me at all but it is so messy outside). Anyway, once I was inside it was not that busy but there were still lots of people. The aisles are being filled with 'Christmas specials' already and there are 'deals' everywhere. It's still November! We haven't even had the Grey Cup yet. I shouldn't be surprised as it happens every year at this time but it always catches me off guard. Kissn' 104 started playing Christmas music today. Yikes!

I got my four things and headed home. It was just to 'busy' for me. Too many specials, too many sales and I am not in the mood for any of it right now.  Of course, when I go out to buy my gifts, the specials will be all gone. That is usually what happens to me.

So, I come home and what do I find? My husband and his buddy are busy shampooing our living room carpet. He purchased a new Bissell 'home cleaning unit' on sale and was happily showing me how good it works. Now, I can't argue with something like that. Can I? I am happy about the cleaning taking place and happier still that we have plans already to go 'out for supper' tonight so that I don't have to deal with it right now. Not that I have to deal with anything since he is the one doing all the work! The carpet that was cleaned so far, looks great!

I have turned the heat up in the house (even though it is +2 outside). I am hoping it will speed up the drying process.

All in all it was a good day. With Christmas music already being played, I guess I should get 'into the festive spirit' and leave my 'humbug' attitude behind.
