Better watch out

It is a holiday miracle.


I actually have a present wrapped and under the tree and Christmas is still over 2 weeks away.


I am normally a Christmas eve shopper/wrapper/ . . . "ah crap here it is in the sack cause I ran out of time" kind of girl.

Right about now I am so proud of myself. I even bought the gift on Ebay.  Go Lori!

BTW, do you think that my Santa wrapping paper is a little scary or is it just me? (Kind of looks like a Santa mug shot). This past summer I went to a garage sale and this family was moving to Florida and they were selling everything including all their wrapping paper/bows/gift boxes/tags etc. and a sweet carrying case for $3. Of course, I bought it. Unfortunately it appears that the family bought up all the ugly paper in town.


I  was planning on taking the whole day off today and going to Denver to go shopping with my mom.  Unfortunately we awoke to a snow storm--  so we decided to scrap that idea.

So I am going over to her house and we are going to make tamales instead.

See you in about 3.5 pounds : )

PS: Today is my sweet and awesome mother-in-law's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUDY!  We love you. Hope you have a great day.

My hubs is in Denver for business this week. Maybe he can come over your house and shovel. I'm sure he is missing having to do it at home.
P.S. Santa is a little creepy

Now, I'm really feeling behind in things. 8-(

But, my presents are bought and those I'm making, almost finished, so I'm not as far behind as I've been... The present looks fine and cheery and that's the important thing... Enjoy the tamales.

About me

Colorado, United States
Lex loci is Latin for "law of the place," I am Lori. This is my gigantic blog about life, law and whatever amuses or irritates me at the moment. I am a high country dweller and as you may come to see, the world is a little skewed when you are at the top. I live here with my husband, Matt. He claims to have searched the world over to find me, but I know for a fact, he rarely left Breckenridge. We share our space with a pound hound, a very out of place chihuahua and, sometimes, with our 20 year old son, Chase. I practice law, often in my pajamas.
