Shoot Me...Shoot Me NOW!!!
I swear I am pulling hair out of my head!! I am still wrapping presents, was up til 2am wrapping and am at it again. I have a house to clean and right now seriously looks like an atomic bomb went off in it. I have cookies to bake, rice balls to make plus other stuff to prepare for company tomorrow. And we have to be at my moms tonight to open presents with her and my brother and moms boyfriend because there is no other time to do it this weekend. AND...everyone keeps calling me asking for last minute ideas to get my mom, brother, FIL (my mom wants to get my FIL something small for tomorrow, even though I said it is totally unnecessary). AND...we still have to go out tonight and buy a few more things for my stepson for tomorrow!!
On the good side...I am totally psyched for my mom to open her cruise present tonight. I am so excited to see her reaction and shock. I wrapped it pretty neat, in one box I put shorts and a t-shirt and flip flops on top, then a row of tissue paper, then the leather envelope with the airline tickets and itinerary, then under more tissue a scrapbook which I started the first page with my cruise and then unnder that the book with all other cruise info. And I was in Kohls yesterday and they had a cool cruise ship ornament, so I got that too. I am sooooooo exscited for her to open this gift, making one of her all time dreams come true.
Oh and our cruise changed, we're not going to the Bahamas, instead the cruise is a four day to Key West and Cozymel. I am sooooo psyched. Ok, sorry so long and babbling, its a lack of sleep, stress and excitement.

For years I worked a cruddy job and could never afford the gifts I wanted to give people. Finally, this year I have a decent job and can do this. My mom has been such a huge support system throughout my whole life, being there for me for any and everything that ever came up, she is my bestest friend in the whole world and I just want her to be as happy as she has always made me and finally I can!!!

Re: Shoot Me...Shoot Me NOW!!!
Ok, deep breath!!!! If I were you, I'd clean first and get that out of the way. Then at least, if nothing else, the house is clean. Then I'd head straight to the store and BUY cookies. Why go crazy over cookies? Then all you have to do is wrap gifts in front of the TV with a glass of wine and make the rice balls, with a few more glasses of wine Then make DH drive while you're running errands tonight!

I think that is the best gift ever!! Your mom is going to love it. Isn't it the best when you get someone a gift you just know they are going to LOVE!
