It is a cold and rainy day out today, and I have a few errands to run. Here is the plan for today:
We’ll see what I can get done today 😉
The end of the laundry is in sight! I’ve just put the ninth load of laundry in the washer, and I’m so ready to be done. My boys received an entire laundry hamper of new clothes for Christmas, that was a lot of plastic tabs to pop off and hangers to remove.
Did I forget to mention that this is the gigantic pile of clothes that was already in the boy’s closet?!? Hmmm, just where is all of the new stuff going to go. It looks like I’ll be cleaning and organizing for a very long time.
This year we tried to keep things as simple as possible when it came to Christmas. We switched the usual Christmas at noon Lunch to Snacks at 4:00 p.m., and Christmas Dinner at 6:00 p.m., and it worked out great! We got to spend a little more time with the kiddos, and there wasn’t the mad rush in the kitchen to have everything done in time. My hubby and I got to sit on the couch and relax while the kiddos played with their new toys.
At 4:00 p.m., the Christmas Party had begun. We had lots of guests, plenty of yummy food, and WAY TOO MANY PRESENTS! After dinner and all of the unwrapping all of the presents, we all gathered around the table to play a fun game called Apples to Apples. I think this one is going to become a new family tradition, we all laughed until our faces hurt. Thanks again to everyone for a fun Christmas 🙂
My goodness I am so tired of cleaning. James and I have been working on the Living Room this morning, and I’m tackling the tremendous mess in the kitchen and the laundry too. Here is the plan for the rest of the afternoon:
I hope to have the house close to back to normal soon 😉 But really how close to normal can it get 🙂
I’ll have to keep things short and simple today, the house is completely trashed. Every single room is filled up with way too much stuff. I see a ton of cleaning in the immediate future, and I don’t even know where to start. I feel completely overwhelmed and completely stressed out. This is just going to be one of those days.
