Walking Backwards

Thrilling experiences from a rather uneventful life.

Sunday, December 07, 2003

Blah. Didn't get anything done today. I'm too lazy for my own good. I thought it might be a good idea to clean out Nicholas' playroom to make room for the stuff he is going to get for x-mas. I figured that we would find lots of stuff that could go to charity, but he still plays with most of the stuff he has. I don't think that Goodwill would appreciate getting plastic Easter eggs and chewed up teething toys. Fortunately, we bought a bunch of toys to donate when they were on sale. I still have to get the Christmas gifts for the adopt-a-family program. I realized that I have no idea what a twelve year-old girl would want and her wishlist was really vague. I am going to go shopping this week and just guess. I feel a lot better this year for actually getting off my ass and doing the charitable stuff that I mean to do every year, but never get around to. Ever since I've been a stay-at-home parent, I have been attempting to do volunteer work, but it has been hard since I have to take Nico everywhere I go. Every place wants donations though, so that is how I am going to do my part. I wish I could do more sometimes. Being here makes me feel like I am not contributing to society at all. I have to do something.
