finally feeling better

Well,  after the LP my stomach bug seemed to come back.  That makes things so nice...NOT.  I guess my husband's friends who had the stomach bug said it came back for them too. It wasn't as bad, but still came back.  I missed work on Friday because of the lack of sleep and the bug.  I am doing better now.  My back is back to normal.  Never did develop a headache.  Thankful for that.  I have just been trying to get all this Christmas shopping done.  I really could do without it all.  I feel too stressed out with the holidays.  seems like every time I turn around I have to find another gift for another person.  I really just want to have the day over with.  It sadly doesn't have the meaning it should.  
I plan to go out to the stores this afternoon and buy the final gifts I have to get.  I refuse to do any more than that.  Then I have to plan what to buy for dinner on Christmas Eve.  I am having family and friends over that night.  Not too many but it will be some work.  since we got this bigger house, we wanted to have family over more.  I am thankful that my husband likes to cook and will be the one to mainly take care of the meal.  I am having people bring things to the dinner as well so that I don't end up making all of it.   I miss Christmas Eve dinner at my great Aunt's.  That is why I have started it.  I make meals like she used to.  I like the traditional Italian foods.  
Well, I suppose I should get myself showered and dressed so I can go out and finish the shopping.  Then I can come home and finish wrapping and be done! YAY...LOL.

I\'m glad you feel better. I went shopping Saturday. I thought I would not make it with all the walking. It was tough. Christmas just is not the same with me this year. It is sad that I don\'t feel the Christmas spirit. I have not kept our traditions this year. I hate that I broke some of them. Maybe next year will be better for all of us.
