Why Can't I Sleep?!?!

It's 4:00 in the morning on a Saturday!  I've been up since 2:45 and I am way passed pissed off because I can't sleep.  I was sleeping peacefully until some unnamed cute 2 year old decided to start yelling in his sleep which woke up the other unnamed adorable 3 year old.  Ah well, at least I was productive with my time while I was up.

I have no idea how I managed to get Christmas shopping done before Internet shopping was around.  It's so much easier to sit at my laptop with my shopping list and just point and click.  The only thing that I won't buy on line this year is wrapping paper.  Come to think of it, I've done all my Christmas shopping on line for the past 5 years,  What can I say except that I'm lazy.

Maybe it's just me, but I'm finding it a little hard to get into the holiday spirit this year.  Are any of you guys having that issue?  This is the first year in a while that we've had a Christmas tree and lights in the house but I'm still finding it hard to get into it.  And, every year seems to pass quicker and quicker and just when I get into that spirit, it's over.  Maybe the retailers have it right by putting out Christmas stuff right after Halloween (a pet peeve of mine); the longer the holiday season, the easier it is to get into the spirit of things.  Seriously, I think I just need to go back to bed.

I can't imagine holiday shopping without the internet either.

I do hope you at least found a nap today!

I'm with ya. Our two year old is getting up at about 4:00 on a regular basis now. It's getting irritating. That, combined with my humbug spirit, makes me about ready to get her a big lump of coal for Christmas.
