It sounds like you have a bad "Idle Air Control" valve...Also known as the I.A.C. valve. This is a the most likely culprit and easy to fix. The I.A.C. valve is located on the top of your engine. It is that silver valve with an electrical connector located just next the upper right hand corner of the plastic engne cover.
If you replace the valve let us know if that solves the problem.
Happy Holidays..
