My Christmas spirit is gone with the wind today. I removed my tree by 1pm. I'm with you.

I wanted to get P a queen bed pretty soon. That way when we have company, we have a choice other than either a loft or a daybed.

I removed my tree by 1pm. I'm with you. My goodness. I know. It’s extreme. M’s birthday is the 30th so I like to have everything gone by then. But also - I just get overwhelmed by the decorations because my brain processes them as clutter. Like the 36 Christmas drawings taped on the wall by the art table. 😬

My someday wish list has a bunk bed that's full or queen size on the bottom bc 1. my kids have been asking for bunk beds and 2. to have something better than L's daybed/trundle bed or an air mattress for guests.

I picked up Noon Year's Eve party hats while grocery shopping. Yes, I'm one of those people. ETA meaning a mom who does Noon Year's Eve with her kids, not a person going to a maskless NYE adults only party that's supposed to be like a Prohibition era speakeasy. Pandemic, people, pandemic. Our state has 0% ICU capacity! C'mon!

I have no one to text, because my kids are neither terrible eaters or wonderful eaters, but I need to proclaim my pride! People who have great eaters will not be impressed.
I served homemade fried rice (that wasn’t light on garlic or ginger), plus pork buns, and every kid was at LEAST happy to try everything. 2/3 ate both dishes until they were full.
This is a big win around here.

After 3 weeks in the Nicu and 2 blood transfusions, my baby niece is going home today! Even though we won’t get to meet her for a few more months, I’m so happy and relieved for my brothers family.

Remember that time we had the worst camping/hunting trip EVER? Part 72 of the horrible saga. Generator went out overnight. Ok fine. Then mh leaves to hunt at 5 am, and we run out of propane. Did I mention it’s 30* and freezing rain? So us girls huddle under the covers till he gets back. He starts the generator, and the pull-start string breaks. He at least replaces the propane for us, then heads off to the cook shed. While he’s out eating delicious, delicious bacon, my phone dies, the electricity is out, I can’t make coffee, then I get a bloody nose. And P is being a cranky fussy baby and has decided that no one loves her, and she is going to run away. (But not till later when it’s a little warmer.) And she says I’m a bad mom. Fun stuff.
