Welcome 2008!

Welcome 2008! Mike and I didn't stay up to watch the ball drop last night. As soon Auburn won the Chick-fil-a bowl, we turned off the television and went to sleep. This morning we were trying to remember the last time we stayed up until midnight on New Year's eve. A few years ago we made it to 12:00 Eastern time (but we live in Central time). Oh well, we like to stay well-rested.

We went to the mall yesterday, and I'm glad we went, but we won't be going back. It was ridiculously crowded. One thing I'll never understand is groups, or families, that walk around the mall together when it is crowded. We saw tons of groups of 8-10 people walking around together. That would be my worst nightmare! Even when I'm not shopping for anything specific, I don't like to walk slowly or wait around in stores (yes, I have ADHD). When my family goes to the mall, we pick a place and time to meet, then go our separate ways... and it's fabulous!

I did manage to make one purchase at the super crowded mall, and I'm very excited abut it. I bought skivvies at J Crew! I read about them on a friend of a friend's blog, and she said they wouldn't ride up your legs like regular pajama pants. Mike likes our house COLD, so I have to sleep in pants, and mine always ride up my legs while I'm sleeping. I tested my new ones last night, and they were great! I bought these yesterday at the store:



And I just ordered these off the Internet from J Crew. They are on sale for $15.99 once you put them in your shopping cart:)
