I'm heading in to work for 2 or 3 hours today, just so I don't have to use a vacation day. Yesterday, some people brought in their dogs and kids, so everyone told me to bring in B today. If this rain lets up by the time I need to go then I may bring her in too.
My friend gets in this afternoon and then the Christmas fun can begin!!!
I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas! May the crazy family time stay to a minimum and the presents be plentiful!
This is my first year having to work and I'm super sad, but they made an 11th hour decision to let is leave a couple hours early, so I'm planning to head out at 1. Hubs and I do church, dinner out and open one present on Christmas eve so I'm looking forward to that.

It's amazing how much I can get done if I make myself go to bed early and get up early, maybe I can make this a habit and come on and check in here more often! Anyway, I am working today until 4, then off to my in laws house. I have ALWAYS Loved Christmas, but this year is extra special having my own child. I think next year will be even more fun, to watch the holiday magic through his eyes. I am a little stabby at having to work today. Not really the working part, but I am not too happy with my manager. We will be having words today. So, I hope that part goes well. Other than that, I am really looking forward to coming home tonight and just relaxing with my boys!

I'm working today too... so random. I'm watching the Britney spears special from Sunday. I really want to go see her Vegas show now. If I get bored at work today I'll look it up.

Is it December 26th yet? I'll get out a little early today, and will finally finish up the X-mas shopping. H works tomorrow, so it will be the usual poopy X-mas. I'm also kinda bummed that the 49ers won last night, they totally lucked out. Mind you, the Falcons are not very good this year, but they were giving me hope for a bit.
Good morning. I have to take the new nugget in for a dr apt in a few. H iis taking the week off or else he would have been working today. Besides that I have some cookies to make and a few presents to wrap.
We are going to head home in a bit but we are putzing around in the cabin for now. We will go straight to my grandma's for awhile then we are going to see The Hobbit. I love Christmas Eve!
I am getting ready to head out for a massage. Then we are taking the dog to the vet. Poor girl has a raging ear infection :-( I feel so bad we didn't notice it until it got so bad. She also needs her annual vaccines.
Then we are going to run a couple errands and grab dinner (hoping 5 guys is open honestly!) and make some cookies.
I'm at work and don't want to jinx myself by saying its a little slow. I have lots of printing to do but hopefully I can sneak out by 4. I'm so not in the Christmas mood, working the day before and after and last weeks S kind of killed it. I want to be home and cleaning and baking. I haven't made krumkake since my husband washed my pan with soap and I have to reseason it. I was hoping my mom and I could make some (Norwegian cookies). I also have a pretty apple cake recipe I wanted to try for tomorrow.
I'm going to head to the movies in a little bit to FINALLY see catching fire. After that I'm off to the station for prime rib. Mm
The winemaker dinner last night was awesome. The food was amazing. I may have slurped down 4 glasses of champagne. The guy kept giving them to me. It would have been rude to say no. Haha
