two turtle doves

i've concluded that although i seem to be rather complaintant about how busy i am, the condition of my house would seem to be evidence that i've been relaxing (or playing) more than i think. so, that being said i will have to go clean, finish wrapping, shovel a bit of sticky snow and do laundry.

kevin did sell the vikings ticket so that hassle is solved. abby's christmas party went well, but i'm still the world's most impatient mom when it comes to children who don't listen or respect adults. we're going to my sister becky's tonight for all of the family to have dinner and watch Christmas movies in her giant screened private theater.

so, off i go to the mundane preparations...
