Exhausted



Do You KNOW what it took to get this picture? Much fussing, foot stomping,driving a little fast and yes a little swearing on my part. And for this .22 cent picture at Walgreens? And Sydney ran around saying he was scared after WEEKS of hollering for Santa. "And now your afraid to tell him what you want?" urrrrrrrrrrrr NO YOU ARE NOT GETTING A SPIDER MAN WEB CAN!!!!!

I read our local 3 page weekly newspaper that comes to our little town Arkansas. I remember it saying Santa was going to be in a nearby town, the same town in which I work. Good I thought, Jim and I can take Sydney to see Santa then drop me off at work. Well, at City hall a cop stood in the room with a cup of coffee in his hand saying," That was last night(Friday) 175 people showed up".
I was dropped off at work and drove 54 miles away to hop into the car with Jim and Sydney and drove to Walgreens with 10 minutes to spare before Santa had to go back to the North Pole.
He saw Santa and Santa was HoHoHoing upon seeing Sydney walk in through the doors. Then like a chicken with his head cut off proceeded to run around a card display saying,"Your scaring me." (not Santa but Sydney- I thought I might clear that up)
For Weeks I have heard that Sydney needed to talk to Santa and wanted to go to the North Pole to see him. Well we see him and what does he do? FREAKS OUT!
Jim and I kept telling him to go tell him what he wants for Christmas and Sydney kept telling me,"You go tell him" while shoving my rear end in Santa's direction.
We only got this picture after Santa offered Sydney a candy cane, as if he needed anymore sugar at the time. I was ready for bed after that, my nerves taxed.
