We were at the pool at 07.45 this morning, because ds had his swimming exam. He passed so no more swim lessons for him! Relieved that after 3 year this is done! And I felt lucky I could witness it, the last time no people were allowed.
It’s a rainy cold and dark over here, but we took the kids out for a stroll in the rain to get some air. Not looking forward to the coming months.

It’s L’s friends party today. Since we are going to Medieval Times 🏰 I have nothing to prep since favors are already done. I have two homework assignments to finish today and I need to get my gel nails removed. Plus work on laundry there’s always laundry to be done. 🧺
Last night C and I wrapped the bulk of the Christmas presents.

Morning! My Christmas shopping is mostly unfinished. I bought maybe four of five things so far. I made the kids look at gift guides with me yesterday, but I still don't feel convinced I have everything I want squared away.

Because of the holiday today is trash/recycling day so I wanted to get all the un-needed cardboard boxes out. Between our normal recycling and that, the bins are full. |

I have maybe 3 presents for Cadence, 1 thing for mh (if it ever ships since it was a preorder figure he wanted and shipping just says Nov. 2021), 1 gift for my niece, and that's it.
Oh but a bunch of stuff for the cats. 😬
It's cold and rainy today so I have zero plans. I'm sure it will end up involving Clue and Monopoly Jr. though.

Evie has a yucky cough, so our day started at the urgent care, which took forever. They did a strep and covid test. Strep was negative, but since my niece in law is pregnant, we skipped my family Thanksgiving at lunch and brought home McDonald's. Even if the covid comes back negative, I dont want to expose everyone to this cough.

We got our tree this morning then I went to the mall alone to Christmas shop and buy myself pants because I’m too fat for the ones I own (will deal with that after Christmas). Ran into my sister and enjoyed a nice, not so Christmasy Peach Bellini. DH and the kids put the lights on the tree and we will decorate it soon. Hoping for early bedtime for the boys so we can go over all we got and need to get for Christmas.

We got these at work and they are great. A couple of people at work bought them for home as well. They are $84.99 for Black Friday but I don’t remember spending much more than that anyway.  |

We are headed home from my in laws. It was ok. Lola was really anxious and wouldn’t settle last night so Pete slept with her and she was up half the night. C slept with me and we were up with my BIL snoring and coughing in the next room. He missed the memo on staying home when sick 😤

MH and I have always fought about tree lights. I believe they should be white and he believes they should be colors. We got the new lights that can switch from one to the other with the press of a button. Why didn’t we invent these?

My kids all were up by 5am. Not ideal. They've been having a ton of fun playing in the snow though. We didn't get a lot but enough to cover all the grass and trees so it's pretty.

Boys were up at 6:30 but let us sleep until 9:30. Taking DD to an appointment at the running store at 12. DS has back to back high school then club hockey games. We have permission from the high school to pull him right off the ice after that game and race to his other one. I need to squeeze in grocery shopping somewhere today too. Gymnastics finally reopens tomorrow for the first time since their flood in September. C really wants to go so I need to see if they have any openings for his age.

Family birthday zoom party done. I thought I would be late because they hadn’t finished the cake when I came to pick it up and I didn’t leave much room for delays. L is excited and is playing with some of his new toys.

Nice tree! tgrimes Coming back from a trip then having a party and getting the tree up! Please send some of your energy and motivation my way. To be fair, the kids helped with the tree and last night none of the dishes got done. I'm paying for it today. It took me over an hour to clean up the kitchen, M cleaned up the entire front room aka the toy room, and now I'm changing the sheets and doing laundry. |

We made it back last night. I’ve been finishing the kids list all morning and sending ideas to the in laws. I think I’m about done. I also got some things for the kids from the angel tree we are doing at work. Now all I have left is Mh, but he is most likely getting a new phone, so I’ll deal with that later.
I have to run out for drive up orders at some point, then to storage to hide the gifts.

We made it back in the evening too. I'd like to get some Christmas decorations up today. We'll see how that goes. I love your tree tgrimes! Cass is in horse heaven with her new horse trailer. |
