I slept til 6 this morning - such a treat. Charlie woke up less than 10 minutes later. I'm barely dressed for the day, good thing I don't have anything going on til later. Preschool at noon and Josie night try a karate class today at 4.

Hi ladies. I really want to decorate for Christmas but I needed to do some cleaning and organizing first. MH/DH/hon/babe/my old man got me jump started on it so I finished when I got home yesterday. Hopefully tonight the decorating will commence.
So I bought myself a Nintendo Switch on Black Friday. It is so much fun! The girls and I played Mario Kart last night.

Morning! I’m awake bright and early. I slept like crap last night. The drive to the hospital was terrifying. These Dallas drivers are aggressive, even at 6 am!
I can’t believe Matt layer got fired from the today show. All these cases of inappropriate sexual behavior is sickening.

DH went to work late today so he took C to school. I got to work an hour and a half early, which is great because I can leave early at some point in the next two weeks.

Hi everyone. It’s official- the elf is back for the season. I hung him on the chandelier and when B woke up and saw it, she started saying - hey, who put that there? Someone came in our house and put that elf there! I think I succeeded in convincing her that no, he arrived here on his own. We did Elf on the Shelf last year too, so I thought she’d have a better memory. :/

Happy Birthday flamingo. I didn't sleep well so I'm going to try to force myself to take it easy this morning. All I have to do is take the kids to school, pick up my not fixed car, and go to the OB. I should also open the Amazon boxes that are piling up in my room but I don't know where to hide all the stuff. Usually, I put it in the attic but do not want to climb the ladder right now. Maybe I can get my mom to come and hand the stuff up to her.

kim22, I have so many boxes I need to open and figure out a place to put! I don't even know what I ordered.

We have all our boxes stacked in the hallway. You can no longer use the hallway.. But we're getting a tree Sunday and then I'll start wrapping. But my mom bought my youngest nephew a carseat and holy crap is that a big box.

At home today, cleaned the whole house this morning and currently trying to figure out what to do with the kids while having zero motivation to go out and do anything... spiralling down the Christmas decor rabbit hole, Sinterklaas isn’t even over yet! I still need stockings, just not sure what kind... I like vintage/retro style things, tips are welcome!

I can’t believe Matt layer got fired from the today show. All these cases of inappropriate sexual behavior is sickening. My radio show this morning was basically speechless.. And they do a trivia game every day and his name was one of the answers. They apologized after. Apparently the new york times has been working on a story for weeks and it's about to come out.

I opened all of our boxes and have been storing things in gift bags in one of the basement closets, I think I have way too much stuff. I actually have to take a night and look through it with a more discerning eye.

Good morning and thanks for the birthday wishes! DH went out and got breakfast before he headed into work and I got to sleep til almost 8 (thank you, C).
So I feel like a bit of an ass this morning. 😳 DH said I could open one gift and let B choose which one. Thankfully the kid had the sense to pick the giant one. I let him unwrap it to reveal...a bunch of my H’s sweaters. And a small gold box from the jewelers. DH did very well.

nam2013 I don’t know if this would be your thing—or if they’d ship to y’all—but we have needlepoint stockings from LLBean. They are old-fashioned looking and come in all different designs. Pottery Barn always has a nice selection, too—but again, not sure about shipping. melaniesue thinking of y’all, good luck today. trtlcrzy how is S this morning?

kim22, I have so many boxes I need to open and figure out a place to put! I don't even know what I ordered. I’m definitely losing track as well of all the stuff coming in vs what’s still on order and hasn’t arrived. I do open the boxes as they come though. I’ve been putting everything in our guest bedroom closet for now.
