My goal every Christmas/Holiday break is to give myself the present of organization. And by organization I mean less piles of papers everywhere so I have to get tot that as well through out the weekend. F will watch tv and I can clean like a maniac and let him have control of the remote. So it's very much a win win for us all.
Great gifts for the season:
I haven't worn shoes all day
Nuns of Brixton play the Bluebird tonite (and didn't last night which would have been miserable because of the temperature and snow)
Herschel made it to Chanukah... now we are hoping he will see New Years! He is my little miracle
Hope you all have a happy holiday season, get everything you wished for from Santa (because you have been very very good I am sure!), build great memories and have a safe NYE!
