I had big plans to have the house spotlessly clean. It's quickly degrading into a high school "let's shove it all in my office and lock the door" kind of plan.
We are having 30 relatives over Christmas Eve and I was the same way (the spotlessly clean part) until I and deciding to embrace the High school way. There is no way I am going to be able to get everything done by 6 pm on the 24th. Nope, so in the guest room with the door closed goes the crap I can't deal with.
H and I were talking and he doesn't want to go on a vacation with me, so I am probably going to do a solo vacation and he is going to do a solo vacation.
We got a flat tire yesterday in DH's truck 2 hours from home, but luckily made it home on the spare. He's got to get a nrw one today though, no clue how much that will be.
Pretty sure I jave strep, I'll find out when I go to Walgreens in a bit, no way I'm getting in to my dr, today. Of course I have the kids home with me all week. Hopefully they dont get it.

The baby gave me the gift of sleep last night. He slept from 8-5. It's a damn Christmas miricle! He has been getting up at 4am with a few wakes ups in between. I was a bitchy zombie for weeks.
My car is leaking tranny fluid so I have to drop it off today at the dealership so it's a lazy laundry day at my house.
I am tired. My son went on sleep strike. I have little to do this week because all my big stuff was due LAST week. That I am here at all is ridiculous. I'm going to talk a friend into a boozy lunch, I think.
BIL stayed at our house last night, which caused Leo to have an EPIC fit this morning about going to daycare. I am exhausted and it is 8:21 am.
Last night Jack's ear was hurting from his cold so I gave him medicine around 2:30 am and told him to go to sleep once it kicked back in. Then I went back upstairs and passed back out. He watched ipad from 2:30-6am.
And he is at day camp. They are roller skating and swimming today. To say he is going to hit a wall today would be an understatement. I think we will be putting him to bed at 6 pm tonight.
Also Leo's DCP had the stomach flu in her house all weekend. I hope it is the same bug the kids shared last week.

I have a scary amount of stuff to do in the next two days. Of course yesterday, I some how tripped over my own feet. Twisted one ankle and scraped my knee on the other leg.
Oh yeah. And this morning O's teacher described him as "demanding" w/r/t meals (it was relevant to the conversation, she didn't spring it on me). Which means, in polite teacher code, "your son is a pain in the ass."
It's baby day for my sister! She'll be 40 weeks on Thursday - she had a NST this morning and the doctor said while baby's heart rate is good, she wasn't satisifed with the NST results, so they sent my sister over to the hospital to be induced. I'm so nervous for them, and excited!

Oh man. So, I got the ILs photo mugs this year. I made a collage of all the terrible/hilarious pictures of the kids crying/fighting/making faces. I just picked them up and opened them to find one of the mugs I ordered and one with someone else's adorable baby. I'm equal parts super annoyed and LOLing at the thought of someone else getting a mug with my asshole kids on it. Omg. Lol!
I am off today (and all week!) Yay! But I have to go to Best Buy and Target to finish some shopping today and the card store AND I have to wrap stuff. Kill me now. I hate all of this lol. I do enjoy the holidays, but for some reason, I am really dragging my feet on buying gifts this year.
All I want to do is stay inside and read/listen to Serial.
I am up sucking down coffee. I slept like crap. All I have left to do is address the Christmas cards (we were late getting them out this year). I have so much to do at the office and a hair appt this afternoon. I have a feeling they will get done at the hair salon.
Still feel frustrated the audience at a show last night. They were not responsive or engaging with the performers on stage. As a former performer *hair flip* I just felt bad for them. I've been getting a lot of retweets and favorites by C (D?) list people (not quite celebrities.) which is fun. lol

H always text me when he gets to work and tells me he loves me. I texted him about an hour after he should have been there and asked if he was there. He said that he thought he had texted me. About ten seconds later he texted again saying he accidentally texted his sgt that he loved him lolololol.
H and I were talking and he doesn't want to go on a vacation with me, so I am probably going to do a solo vacation and he is going to do a solo vacation.
Separate vacations!
He doesn't want to go with you anywhere? Or is it just that he doesn't want to do the location you're talking about?
Anywhere. He does not want to go on vacation with me. I am thinking of traveling out to San Francisco.
We will probably do a family vacation though. I was hoping to travel together again this year because I felt like traveling to Chicago was a great experience and we really reconnected as a couple, but whatever--takes two to tango and such.

I think you should go to Italy and have lots of sex with lascivious Italian men.
ALERT ALERT ALERT: My office is closed Wednesday. I thought it was open. Since (see earlier post) I don't have much this week and won't until probably around January 5th, I'm SO taking advantage of it.
I just went to get my leftover fried rice out of the fridge and it wasn't there. DH took it to work instead of the leftover pasta he was supposed to take. Works for me - I ate the pasta instead (yes, it is only 10:45; I was hungry). He's not going to be happy when he realizes what he has, though. He hates my cheap Chinese takeout.
It's not morning anymore, but I have to put this somewhere. I was searching through our basement last night for an extra picture frame and what did I stumble across? Well, the white elephant gift of the cat in school uniform framed picture, of course.

All yours if you want it @fucksticklegit
OMG OMG OMG YES PLEASE!!
I am technically stranger danger because I'm a relatively new lurker, but I would 100% send it to whatever address you choose to PM or I can leave it at a dropoff point which sounds sort of sketchy and exciting.

I have nothing worth stealing because I'm poor as hell, and my skin is riddled with stretchmarks and cellulite so it wouldn't make much of a good suit or lampshade.
I have been fantasizing about sleeping on my stomach and being able to go from sitting to standing with ease.
/random pregnancy thoughts
I may still have incision pain, but the whole being able to walk normal and now have the severe hip pain has been amazing!! I laid on my stomach a little this morning and it was glorious!! Good luck getting through this last little bit.
My husband is annoying me. It's sunny outside, so what does he throw on? Shorts and flip flops. No shirt. He is outside cleaning the truck wearing goddamn shorts and flip flops. It is 0 degrees outside. Get back in here and put some clothes on. I swear to god, I cannot take this man.
