Thursday 13... In Which Nana Explodes!
13 reasons why this Nana might explode before the weekend!
1. Luz Estrella has been on Maryland soil for a whOle day and I have not met her yet...
2. PopPop has installed a carseat in my vehicle ... but I haven't gotten to try it out yet...
3. There is a Dora The Explorer talking noise making Big Wheel tricycle living in my garage... but no one has pedaled it yet.
4. The fact that it is supposed to be a Christmas present is totally irrelevant. It might actually make it to Christmas! (could happen)
5. Though I nearly NEVER need to go shopping in the town where Luz lives, I suddenly find I have 15 million things I NEED to go there for...
6. But I'm putting them off until I'm allowed to stop in at Amanda's apartment.
7. The mailman keeps delivering boxes.
8. And the contents are all for a certain little girl...
9. I really NEED to come up with a list for the OTHER members of my family...
10. ... who might be dreadfully disappointed if they were to receive Alexander and the Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day for Christmas...
11. ... but I can't seem to think of anything anyone else would possibly want this year...
12. ... except to see Luz get EVERYTHING! LoL... (it IS funny... right?)
13. Redheads are prone to spontaneous combustion. It's true. And did I mention Luz has been in townalmost MORE THAN 24 hours... and I haven't seen her yet?! Haven't even heard her voice!

#2 - you can try out the car seat, but I doubt you'll fit.
#3 - I'd be happy to take the Dora tricycle for a spin. Maybe I can get the judge to raise my gymnastics score ...
#10 - that's a great book. I'd be overjoyed to receive it.
#13 - I'd suggest waiting in the shower. Cold water might work best.

Only 13 reasons....you are slipping girlfriend I figured you'd have at least a million reasons by now. Anticipation only makes the event sweeter. Give them the time to adjust to being a family together....I waited 6 months till I finally got to see the Divine Miss Em. Gotcha all prayed up.

Your redhead temper needs a cold shower !! Put your foot on the brakes, otherwise you risk that little Luz will get scared of her enthusiastic grandma, lol !
