nearly Christmas...really? No Way!
Well it's nearly Christmas...Yup it sure is....
It doesn't feel like it. No snow on the ground, I'm not looking forward to time off work because I'm not working (yet) Sure we have our tree up...We've been getting Christmas cards...I don't send them out "normally" but I need to do something to bring that Christmas cheer so I'm thinking about it. Normally I bake cookies, but I'm on this major diet thing. Going to Daytona Beach the very beginning of April is what I'm focused on to not fudging the weight thing...making cookies will NOT help. The kids are asking about presents...I have not bought or sent out one gift. Things are kind of tight...*sigh* This is the week to "get everything done" I have no Christmas spirit...I need to find it, somewhere somehow. Kids are off school starting this Friday...I hope I find it by then.
In the evening's since Thanksgiving, we've been playing our yearly game of X-box's D&D heros...it's a 4 player game. Every night we all go downstairs hook up all 4 controllers and play...Husband is the hafling rogue, Sunshine plays the Elven sorccer, Meldar plays the dwarf cleric and I play the human fighter....Meldar used to want to be the fighter all the time until I played Umda the dwarf....he's been converted. It takes about a month of playing nearly everyday for about 2 hours a night to get through the whole game and kill Kaeden (sp?) We've done this for the past 3 years and it's wholesome family fun...fighting over gold, and items,...but we help each other out too... will this be my Christmas spirit?? Hmmm I wish that there were more 4 player games like this one out there that we could play together...
