What Can I Do?

****

I'm so tired. I didn't sleep as well as I'd have liked
last night, so getting up this morning was trying to say
the least. I procrastinated for as long as I could before
I just HAD to get up. I made myself look forward to
putting on my new shirt and necklace (from Helena) and
using the new hair ties and Prada perfume Snookie gave me.
That's really all that made me even remotely happy about
getting up this morning. I got some nice (and useful)
presents this year.

Work was crazy. I swear, it was more busy today than it
was on Christmas Eve. Between returns, exchanges, and bra
week (buy one, get one half off sale), the place was
crawling with people and I was already tired to begin
with. my time to leave couldn't come soon enough.

Sue gave both Snookums and I $50 gift cards to Macy's for
Christmas. I went into Macy's during my lunch break just
to look around and I didn't see a damn thing I wanted. At
least not for $50. I don't shop at Macy's much. I wish I
could trade in the gift card for cash and go to Motherhood
Maternity or Ross or something else. Usually she gives us
Visa gift cards, which are much more useful. I don't know
what I'm going to get. I looked at shoes, nothing
comfortable (yet, work appropriate), I looked at clothes.
Nothing I really wanted or needed. I'm at a loss.

I'm ready for bed now. I know I'll have a trying day
tomorrow already. Snookums goes back to work, which is a
huge problem for me (that I hadn't seen coming). Kiki's
daycare is closed until January 2nd. It is every year.
Usually Snookums leave doesn't expire until then, so he
stays home with Kiki, but not this year. His leave expires
tomorrow, which leaves me with 4 days of no sitter for
Kiki. I really don't know what to do about it. I'm just
going to have to do my best to get other people to take my
shifts. Which sucks (as I calculate how much money I'll be
forfeiting in my head). Oh well, what can I do? Ciao for
now.
