“Mama, I’m going to wake you up real early tomorrow”.
And so went forth the warning from E.B. that there would be no sleeping late this week during Thanksgiving break. Fortunately, he has only made good on that threat one morning so far, so crossing my fingers we can sleep in as much as possible this week!
I managed to tackle the cleaning on Saturday and finished up Sunday afternoon. I can report that Santa’s mission was accomplished this morning at Wal-Mart. It felt great to get that taken care of before the holiday madness really begins. I also purchased a new Christmas tree to put up on Friday. We always do an artificial tree and our old one was on its last limb (ok, so not literally….but those limbs were sagging) so it had to be replaced. I also had to purchase one a good bit smaller in girth that I would have normally liked (ahh, apartment living “perks”!), but it will do just fine.
I even managed to do the grocery shopping this evening. My plan is to not have to go anywhere near any store until after the weekend. I hope I can stick to this plan.
So today, I am feeling quite accomplished. It’s amazing what you can do when you don’t have to work. LOL!
