Oh man, I am so tired tonight! I went to bed around 4am this morning, and then I woke up at 8 to get ready to volunteer at Jack's school. Once there, I copied, cut, pasted, and laminated my heart out! I was absolutely famished by the time lunch rolled around. For once, I actually finished all of my lunch tray before Jack or his friends finished ( Read more... )

Once again, it is just gorgeous out today, and we're going to head into town and get some things knocked off our list because of it. The weather is supposed to be all snow-and-doom-and BLIZZARD for the next few days afterward, so today is probably my one chance to get the car washed for the next couple months or so ( Read more... )

I was so beat today, just as I feared that I would be. I watched Elizabethtown from Netflix last night while making the baptismal letters, and I stopped the movie to take a shower at 1am or so ( Read more... )

Well, today was even busier than I'd thought it would be. Philip had an impromptu meeting called at 1:30, and I had to leave Jan's house with both Jack and Cole in tow in just a minute's notice. I felt awful leaving her a note, but I didn't have any other choice. Thankfully, we dropped off Philip at the base and returned back to Jan's house just ( Read more... )

I love reading my LJ in the morning. It is so relaxing, and it's such a nice way to ease into the day over breakfast (a glass of milk and orange wedges ( Read more... )

I hope you're having a wonderful Christmas Eve ( Read more... )
