great job dnancy on working on cards

I wish I could say the same
dh threw the pumpkins away... me: I should have done them last week.
today: dh has pet scan
then go to the post office to mail packages
waiting for dmoms presents so I can mail it along with sil/bro

dropped dd15 off at school and just waiting to leave for test. (it took 3 hours.. his lungs have inflammation mmmm) I have two magazines to read.
tomorrow I need to stop by bank. (mental reminder)

ask me what I have done today but sit on my keister nothing, just waiting. dd15 got a hair cut after school and looks so cute. I just realized she is getting to the age where she will be driving to her appointments. I don't think I like that too much... the baby is growing up.

Don't be too hard on yourself, bw2. I still have two pumpkins on the front porch, and dead impatiens and ferns outside. You get tremendous amount done, considering your dh's appointments and needs!

[blessedw2]

you are so nice dtwins! Also a very Happy Hanukkah to your dear family! I used to like where Pam and Peggy used to say they knew the holidays were here by the number of gnats by the pumpkin... dh went to pick up a pumpkin and the bottom practically fell off My house looks awful inside and laundry didn't just have babies, they had grandchildren and great grandchildren.


what have I done: mmmm took dd15 to school at 6:30 home then off to dh's pet scan which took three hours. then took him to shops he wanted to see...after all I feel like he went through a lot and he deserved a break even though I sat in the car again. So boring but worth it. home for a short time and then off for dd15 and take her to her hair cut. I have not moved physically all day boring boring boring. (lol got that out of my system.

laundry,
review christmas
bring all Christmas things on ping pong table and see what can go to donations
go to store to find lights holders for windows. didn't find them at target
I haven't put away all the thanksgiving things... I am so behind.
My daily/weekly cards are all over the table.. dropped them.
first thing first:

s2s
start a load of laundry
breath in and know it will get done..I love Christmas but this year I don't have the spirit yet. it will come but I think I need to give myself a couple gifts first...taking care of myself and drinking my water first.
7:34 am start
made menu for today and tomorrow. they are decorating at my mil her tree so dd15/21/dh are going while I shop for Christmas.
found out that there are tons of dead lady bugs behind my Christmas stuff and some mouse droppings (cats can't get back in that closet) so I need to vacuum back there and set up traps before I put Christmas stuff back.
dd15 and I did part of the village. dd15 and I made bark for tomorrow.

I need to join you on cards. I am sooooo far behind.

I want to clean today and do laundry but I need to go shopping as dh will be with inlaws and same with dd15
it will be my only time to go alone.
listened to dh's lungs and one side is wheezy
kind of on the fence being nervous waiting for the pet scan results and eeg. dh I know feels the same
my goal today is to make up cards for for tips for people. I need to look at bills but not today. I will wait until wednesday

yes! dd15/dd21 gave me ideas
