Happy Holidays!
Hope everyone on my flist had an amazing day!
I had the 'bright' idea to make everyone's gifts this year, so the last few weeks I've been in a frenzy to get everything done. They all love their pressies, but I don't think I'm going to be doing this again, unless I can force myself to actually start working on everything in March. *collapses* But the wrapping paper is all cleaned up, the house doesn't look that bad, and we managed, even with all of the family coming here this year, to have a pretty good day. The kidlet woke us up at 5am, (he let us sleep in this year, last year it was 3:30), and he seems to be happy with everything he got, especially the DS that my parents gave him. He's been glued to it to the point that we're having trouble getting him to stop and eat. I'm fairly sure his brains are going to leak out of his ears if he doesn't ease up, but as I told him today, at least it will be a small mess to clean up. :P I got my hubby an ipod touch, and ironically, he got me the same thing. We had no idea til we opened them. I'm honestly amazed at the little gadget and though I'm not as insane over downloading applications as my hubby is, I've found a few that I think are cute. And the worst gift was from hubby's grandparents, who are in their 80's and apparently will wrap up anything. It's a statue of a deer head with huge antlers. He thought it was hysterical and put it on his desk in the living room and hung his keys on it. He'll be out of town tomorrow, so I plan on hiding the ugly thing.
The kidlet has a few lung issues atm, so we're on three additional drugs and hopefully that will take care of things. He certainly seems to feel all right, he was bouncing off the walls tonight before bed. So all in all a pretty good holiday. Still, I'm damn glad it's over.
