My husband is foreign and doesn't care about Christmas either. So ... why should I?<br /><br />This Thursday I am going to finish my Christmas shopping and then it's plain sailing.<br /><br />I may or may not make cake (probably not). I may think about putting up the fake tree (probably not). I do need to plan something vegan (son) and vegetarian (me) to take to my sister's for Christmas dinner... <br /><br />But I AM seriously excited about my additional pairs of stiletto boots that I am getting for birthday and Christmas!!! I am SO generous to myself!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09677920043594494060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144727781552044864.post-70604129555759379702011-12-12T16:21:42.479-08:002011-12-12T16:21:42.479-08:00Hugs,

Complains on what I want to buy my kids which isn't a whole lot... rolls his eyes because he can't put one ornament on the tree to participate. <br /><br />The selfish teens are too busy to do family activites unless they get compensated some how. I'm almost so over celebrating because my house totally brings down my natural high.<br /><br /><br />It's prob near as bad as yours so trading with me wouldn't be wise. I think I'll just go on a nice tropical vacation by myself next year.Haleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08052968394434407915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144727781552044864.post-55341666877779721812011-12-12T16:19:03.001-08:002011-12-12T16:19:03.001-08:00Move over, Jaime.

Smile..... <br />I can relate to the laundry with 3 boys (ages 9,11, &41) I catch up on shows I tape while I fold. <br />And to cheer me up when I'm stressed or cranky, I write.

Also, Lily still likes to decorate, so while it's a bit stressful for Charlie and I, it is fun...most of the time when I don't have two books releasing tomorrow and homeschooling to do. (g) Seriously, my front room is a disaster area with all of the Christmas decorations. It's raining and I want to swim today. Not an issue for me, but for my daughter? (sigh) It's cold too. Maybe a neighbor can watch her for an hour or so. (BTW, swimming keeps me sane as does singing. I need both to keep from turning into a raving bitch. I gave up swimming yesterday to go get a Christmas tree. I am <i>not</i> giving it up today.)<br /><br />Hang in there!Marci Baunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01850775917897362922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144727781552044864.post-25305534565884536172011-12-11T07:22:36.492-08:002011-12-11T07:22:36.492-08:00Ha.

Plus all those shiny, dangly bits....you do the math....<br /><br />Our oldest cat, when he was a kitten, would regularly bring down the entire tree. I now have an entire regiment of wooden nut crackers with missing limbs as testament to their war days with the bitty fur ball menace.Jaime Sammshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756034484406953047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144727781552044864.post-4528439575690010102011-12-11T04:17:20.050-08:002011-12-11T04:17:20.050-08:00I can relate.

It took us two days. The lights wouldn't work and the toddler kept stealing the bulbs off the tree as soon as we put them on. Husband was not happy. <br /><br />Since you're already doing so much laundry, wanna do mine too????SJ Drumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02401833950747684542noreply@blogger.com
