You're doing so well!

 

I'm a mess here. Having a major fight with dh, told him about the present and I'll be returning it. Looking like Christmas will be a tad messed up and it's really ticking me off.

 

augh.

 

Timmy is asleep in my arms, Delaney is doing a puzzle and Emily is playing, waiting fo rher friend to get back so she can go over to her house. I've somewhat neglected the kids and that's ticking me off too. augh

 

I need to walk away from the computer and distract myself with something else.

 

First, I'm going to make a quick list of things that I'd like to do in the next 2 days (realistically.)

 

-make gingerbread cookies (find good recipe, make dough, chill, cook and decorate some)

-clean dr and kitchen

-maintain upstairs and main floor

-go to grocery store to get fruit for stockings and any other things I may  need

-Costco?

-shopping- my mom, Becky, Em and Delaney

-make oranges and cloves?

-go through fridge and make sure there aren't any yucky things that will be really nice and ripe when we come back on the 27th

-put cheques in bank

-wrap kids' gifts

-find receipts for Andrew's stuff

-cut up fudge

-make these lemon cookies? (that's an iffy) or bake something else like cookies or muffins

-put together banana dessert (take cool whip out of freezer, make cream cheese bottom, pudding part, bring bananas)

-pack for my parents (clothes, other, gifts)

-put away all laundry

-have pancake stuff ready for Christmas morning

-get to bed before 11 Christmas Eve!!
