Being Lazy

Here I am still in me jammies.
Rich is asleep....but then he had to get up early to go to physical therapy.
Ryan and Emily are still in their jammies.
Kristin is still asleep...well maybe she is awake.
I don't know.
She hasn't shown her face yet.
At least the three of us that are down here have eaten breakfast.
We are putting up the tree today.
Having a fake tree used to be a crime in my mind.
After freezing to the bone one year and just picking the first one we saw, I decided fake is the way to go.
That and I was real tired of all the needles.
Ours is long paid for.
We can put it up on "Black Friday"
And take it down on New Years Day.
It looks the same.
I guess I better get dressed.
Then I can make my children do the same.

Hey, you had a big day yesterday of cooking and eating, and visiting. You deserve a day off. Go in jammies all day long, bake cookies to eat while the tree is being set up and make memories. That is what today is all about, right? Relaxing from gorging your stomach?

I love my fake trees. I can't deal with the shedding needles and keeping the real ones watered.

I really wish my confessions could be as lovely as yours. But they never will be. Staying in the jammy's till 2 PM is not a sin!

We have a fake tree too. When I lived with my parents we used to do the real thing, and eventually finding one that didn't fall over was difficult so we eventually quit and I think my sophomore year of high school my parents bought a fake tree. Our tree is fake too, but that's ok for now :)

I totally used to think the same thing about fake trees but yes, it really is nice being able to have it up for a long time. And especially the day after Thanksgiving you have to be lazy :)

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
