Update

Haven't had much to write about lately mostly due to the fact that I have been so busy my brain is just a jumbled mess. There has been alot going on with us lately as with everybody else I'm sure preparing for the holidays.

Here a a few random thoughts running through my head lately...

1. Planning and wondering about the daycare Christmas party. So far up to 15 kids, 4 sets of parents and 2 grandparents. We plan on decorating cookies, making a craft, pizza party, sledding, treats and being wild...I'm sure. It's on the 23rd and then I have two weeks off, sure I will appreciate after that.

2. I'm not so much into the whole "Christmas Spirit" this year. Not sure why but I'm not. We just got our tree up and decorated and put up the lights outside. I'm almost done shopping, have yet to wrap a gift and have yet to bake a single batch of cookies. Though I did make 2 batches of fudge with my daycare kid if that counts.

3. Scott got a new job which we are very thankful for. he's working custodial for the Pinckney school district. Not his dream job but the best he could find right now. he works 2pm to 11pm though so it's sort of tough not having him home at night. Gotta do what you gotta do though.

4. I adopted a family for Christmas. two boys 2 and 11. They had no clothes so I bought a bunch of outfits for them, socks, shoes, winter coat and some toys. I am glad I am in a spot where we are not suffering and I can help someone else out. I hope more people out there learn to do the same by donating to people in need.

5. I have had the flu twice in one month already. The flu-flu and then the stomach flu. next year I am getting a flu shot...for sure this time ( i say this ever year).

6. I hope we will be able to afford to go to Florida this year in April. I miss my friends.

7. People have been annoying me lately, won't name any names. Don't know if it's because I have been sick, lack of sleep and the fact that I don't get a sick day even when I'm puking my guts out all day long.

8. I am addicted to hot tea. Like every winter. I have every flavor imaginable so if your in the mood for tea and chit chat come on over. Or for beer and chit chat I'd be up for that too :)

9. I hope to have more to blog about someday, I'm sure you are all very bored by now.

When I come up with something more interesting i will be back! Enjoy preparing for the holidays!
