I'm sure it's probably going to be slow here so might as well start early.
Where has everyone been?? What do have going on?

Today is DS' first day off. He's going to a STEM camp. Starts at 9:30. I'm going to go get some last minute items I forgot yesterday when I went out shopping. DH's job gives out gift cards every year to a grocery store we usually don't go to since we have to go out of town for it so I did that yesterday & got most things for Thanksgiving so today I'll just head to Walmart. Should be quick & easy.

Hello, everyone! Between sickness, solo parenting, extra needy LO, travel, extra stuff on the to do list, etc, I have been pretty limited in time. LO is in the tub now which gives me a chance to hop on here (except the dog is already whining because she wants in the tub too, whereas she usually sits by the tub for at least half his bath before whining, so we'll see how much down time I actually get out of this - lol).

aaaand DS managed to lose the fleece sweater he went to camp in. SMH.
The guy is going to look for it but I don't have much hope because they were in multiple buildings/rooms of the campus. UGHHHHH

I've had a busy day! I got my haircut this morning and then did a little shopping. Cranberry sauce, cheese ball and gluten free corn bread muffins are all made and ready for tomorrow.

DD came work with me today, so that was nice. ☺️
She was also diagnosed with walking pneumonia, which wasn't as nice. The Dr says she is getting over it, which makes me wish I'd called for an appointment sooner, but other than a cough she has been fine. Parenting is so tough sometimes

Happy Thanksgiving Ladies!
I just finished all my Christmas shopping! The exception being the people I need to get giftcards or money for and a few stocking stuffers for DD. I cannot explain how excited I am about this! December is going to be a busy nightmare, so not having to shop is a huge weight off my shoulders.
DH is working the morning then we are headed to my dad/sister's for dinner. It's going to be weird without my mom there. It's the first one without her. But I am looking forward to being with my family.

Hugs, misspeansmama! Hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving! We hosted for the first time, and I am so tired and so full. But DS had so much fun running around with his cousin, and everyone else seemed to enjoy themselves, and we had some awesome food, so I'm calling it a success! |

We casually went out to Home Depot when we woke up around 8 to get a leaf blower. It wasn't even on sale, it's just something we need & this weekend is finally nice weather wise so DH is doing leaves. They also had a kid version so we got that for DS. He loves being out there following DH around pretending to do whatever he's doing like mowing so the pack came with a leaf blower & a weed wacker. We also got him one of those rugs for toy cars.
We then passed by Target since it was next door & just picked up a couple of dvds. I'm shopping online right now while DH is outside. DS started outside but he migrated in. It's usually his MO.

We pulled out the Christmas decorations today and H decided our tree (I think it was six or seven years old) was too sad looking to make it through another holiday season. So we wound up at Lowes and got a new tree that was originally $350 for $200, and H had bought a $115 gift card for $100 earlier in the day so I think that worked out. Bonus: it looks great, I'm so happy to have our house looking so festive again!
