new year's eve eve

My vacation is slipping away and I will be heading into the office on Thursday to start off 2014. But, I still have 3 full days to enjoy this slower pace. It has been wonderful to be home and to hang out with my hubby and our kids. We've played cards, read, cooked, watched movies, and just enjoyed the holiday.

I'm reading "Hild" by Nicola Griffith right now. The library texted me when the book was available. It is a 14 day loan, so I'm trying to finish it for my final book of 2013. Good book, but a slow read.

Not sure what plans we have for New Year's eve and day other than watching football. We need to come up with a menu for our snacks.

But, for now, I'm going to pour another cup of coffee and enjoy a quiet morning.

Cheers!

two days and done

My Christmas vacation starts Friday at 3:30 and I can hardly wait. If we can just get everyone healthy, then we will be all set!

The boy is much better. Tamiflu is a miracle drug. The oldest has a nasty cough and is off to the doctor today. Home remedies are just not cutting it, time for some prescription meds.

The rest of us, knock on wood, are healthy.

The Elves made their first delivery today. The girls asked about it yesterday, but nope, the stockings were empty. Not so this morning....a cute little container of Goldfish await them. It is always fun to organize the slow build of the stocking stuffers.

Off into Thursday I go.....being out yesterday will mean a full email box. Oh Joy! Ha!
