Monday Madness

Yikes-is my to-do list long today!

We got back home from our weekend away last night, which means today is UNPACKING day. I had such a great time up northward. It is great fun to see people we haven't seen in a while, though the visits are altogether too short. Bah humbug. The meals were delicious-everyone went sooo out of their way making us feel special. The catching up was fun fun and the time just flew by (as is evident from my lack of photos!) I even did quite a bit of Christmas shopping. All I have to buy for now are the men in my life. Andrew and Matt. And Matt needs to by for the extended family men-and ME!!! :-)

An electrical repairman came by today and worked on the heaters-and will be back tomorrow. Three cheers for the OPTION to be warm-even though we keep the thermostat down SO low sometimes it doesn't FEEL that way... At least now we COULD turn the heat up!

Oh-and another fabulous, wonderful, absolutely fantastical thing is that on Thursday, we will be having a dryer dropped off. I can't wait. I am SO excited to get that mountain of laundry OUT of the closet and be done with it. And feel SOFT clothes-and NOT have to crouch under the clothes hanging throughout the basement! YAY!

Other items on the agenda today-photo shoot for the children, write and mail Christmas cards off, clean bathroom, wrap Christmas presents, and THEN-at 4:30 we have an appointment to go see that dream house of ours!!! The guy talked to Matt on the phone yesterday for nearly 20 minutes, asking all about US-which means MAYBE, just MAYBE he DOES care more about the people who come in than the money. I am not getting my hopes up though-or TRYING not to anyway.

Today is Matt's first day of work at his new job and I am anxiously awaiting an update and his thoughts on the day. He won't be coming home for lunch anymore-so now I have to wait all the way until 4:00!! Argh-impatient me.

Well, this week is going to prove as busy as this day so I best get a move on it! Have a great day!

    Oh, the pictures are so sweet, it's going to be a hard decision for you and your husband. Why not all of them (lol).
