Wheres Toto Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Morning. It was midnight for me so I was sleeping. I do have a Suburban though so I can drive for the lights if we do them at a decent hour. it's dark by 5pm so that should help with the time zones. I used to do reading challenges but I don't have time with all my classes. I still read a lot but I don't want the pressure. Today we are heading to BJs to pick up a few things, then lunch with dad and stepmom, then dinner with mom, somewhere in there we need to put ornaments on the tree. The tree itself is up but undecorated. We did get our new dishwasher yesterday but the stove didn't have the gas to propane conversion kit so they have to come back another day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just a lot to do, and I have to do a lot of it, and it's just more peopling than I'm used to doing.

73349 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 (((Bookie))) I'm sorry. I hope you will be ready to come back to us soon. After a headache morning and livestream church, I was able to do many of the things. Good thing, as the need was great. My list has been downgraded from Lackawanna Meltdown with Willy_Nilly Confetti on Top to the challenging but manageable Better Get Moving, Hadn't We?. Fact: Most of the year, baby loblolly pines trying to re-forest my front yard are tiresome weeds. In the second half of December, however, they are free mantel decor, and I have availed myself. 🎄 So now we have the pine smell even with our little fake tree. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 We have a Christmas tree. It looks very nice. I wanted to get a live pine tree in a pot this year, but there were none available. I saw a Stone Pine I really wanted, but we are the wrong zone for it. Maybe next year I can get us a baby pine tree to plant when Christmas is over. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Nursery was a total wreck tonight. Some woman with lactose intolerant twins gave them milk to see if they were still lactose intolerant right before dropping them off. Then when she came back after church and we were cleaning up another mess, because she uses organic diapers that don't do anything, she just stood there for 10 minutes while we got covered in it. I'm irritated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Good morning! It's The Queen's favorite day! Today's agenda includes finishing the embroidery, making a Christmas Week meal, cooking, and grocery list, going over pet care with pet sitter, finishing gift lists, getting things ready to mail, and looking for boxes that will fit under the van seats. Most of the kids were a little surprised when it was mentioned that they are on Christmas break now. Ds15 has to finish a paper on Huckleberry Finn for his tutorial class, but that's it.

And some baking to do, since we are having Christmas with DH’s family on Saturday. And I think I am going to work on tamales this week, too. I went through the Amazon boxes and found one that was misdelivered. It’s address is just the block over, so I will take care of that today. DS has soccer games this week. Looks like a busy week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
