Momma Drama

Listen to the ax fall.......

Old plan: Ravioli from scratch/garlic bread made from loaves of bread machine bread.
New plan: Lasagna (I found 3 boxes!), and garlic bread made from the loaves of white bread in the freezer left from Thanksgivng.

Old plan: Prime and paint the laundry room.
New plan: Wait for my girlfriend to paint it with me.

I'm almost as done as I can be.......the kids and I delivered the last of the neighbor presents tonight. The lasagna is all made, the garlic butter is made for the breads that are thawing, and the salad is in the bag. I have to finish Trent's Superman costume tonight....I have the other half of the boots to do and the chest logo to go. The logo is drawn out so it *shouldn't* be too hard. I have two small gifts to wrap that I forgot about. The kids and I *tried* to do "that thing" to surprise Dave with, but it was a bust and I ended up with a burn to boot. Gaa! I'm just about done with any cleaning that I planned to do, which was not much....I need to mop (actually scrub, since I broke the mop) the bathroom floor tomorrow. I also need to finish vacuuming (side note...Maiya loves the vacuum, never has been afraid of it. Tonight she tried to ride on it, while it was on and in use.)

Dave should be off tomorrow, if all goes well. He will be on call though (something he hasn't had to do for over 8 years now) from 7 pm, until about 5 am. He hasn't decided if he will just go in to work, to try to prevent being called in at 4 am, arrive at the hospital at 5 am, and then not get home until 6:30 am or later on Christmas morning. If he isn't home, we of course will wait for him, at the risk of the kids self-combusting.

My brother should arrive tomorrow afternoon with his "best girl" in tow....the dog. I have been slacking the last few days and we need to flip three more advent deals and do the three activities......thank god they are easy ones!

Happy Holidays to you all!
