Merry Merry Merry........Shopping shopping shopping....


I have been shopping for 3 days (Friday – PE, Sunday & Monday – EL) I have finally completed all my Christmas shopping! I can’t say I didn’t have fun. I actually enjoyed it. I think what made it kind of pleasant, was that I had a list and knew exactly what I was looking for. Roaming around endlessly, trying to see something ‘NICE’, doesn’t work for me. Lauren stayed with Granny and Grandpa when we were away in PE. On Sunday, Lauren and Dean spent the day together, playing with cousins and seeing ½ a movie and visiting folk, while I shopped at Beacon Bay Retail Park.
On Monday, Lauren and I set out at 11h30..... to see the Bee Movie and do a bit of shopping before and after at Vincent Park. We bought tickets for the 14h30 show when we arrived and then went shopping. The poor child probably had blisters on her feet by the time we actually got to sitting in the movie. We each had a Shamrock steak pie for lunch sitting on a bench and ran around the shopping centre a bit more. Finally at 14h25 we arrived at Ster Kinnekor and bought some popcorn and fanta. The place was packed, but we really enjoyed the little bee story. After some tears were wiped away and I promised her some nice goodies and a ride in the trolley, we then went to Woolworths for a few more things. On the way home, we stopped at a few shops in the neighbourhood and returned at 18h00 last night. Dean was making a fire for a little braai for supper. Yeah! We were so tired. Our(MY) feet were so sore. After our tasty supper and all, we dropped into bed.
