it's wednesday...
five days until christmas and here sits on my desk window greeting cards for horizontal photos and i had vertical photos printed. groovy! so either i go out and search for half way decent cards or bag the whole thing and post our photo online. the good news is that i have all my gifts purchased and wrapped, thanks to brenner. he was quite the helper this year and offered (actually begged until i caved) to help. he also thought it would be super helpful and giving to wrap all his toys to re-gift with my good wrapping paper while I was in the shower one morning. I love his heart.
the house is finally making some progress. Yesterday we had the carpets replaced in the living room and office and the work to replace the hard wood floors is scheduled to start today. Adam and I made another trip to World market last night for a few items for the house and last minute stocking stuffers. after shopping we went to the movies to see "The pursuit of happyness". Wow, what an amazing movie that made me stop, think and appreciate everything i've been blessed with.
this year we are spending the christmas holiday at my parents house. going back home has a way of grounding me and puts the stresses of life into perspective. maybe it's the simplicity of my upbringing that brings me back down to a healthy level of living. I'm also very excited that my brother will be coming, it's been far too long since I've seen him. without a doubt i will gain at least five or more pounds eating my mama's goodies and home cookin'. Oh how I love my parents and can't wait to see them.
a little holiday humor...
I like the comic :)
