Good morning...I had a little trouble getting settled down last night and I was wide awake at 4:00 this morning. I still slept enough to make it through the day, though.
Yesterday was a particularly painful one and I don't have time to allow it to get to that point today!!!!! I wanted to get so many things accomplished, but I barely made a dent in the list.
I have to do 2 colors and another haircut today...wondering how much I can scratch off that darned list after I finish work!!!
So...how is everyone this morning?
Hugs,
Cherry

Today the days will start getting longer as yesterday was the shortest day of the year.
That has gotta make someone happy.
Hope everyone takes care as they make last minute holiday arrangements and those that have to travel stay safe!
Merry Christmas!
Tonna
Well I hope everyone has a great day!!

Cherry, you need a vacation to a tropical island where you are served in your room and on the beach for all your meals. Put on an adult diaper, have all your meals served and your drinks and, don't move!
Paulina, I am glad that you are feeling better. I hope you will be able to enjoy your holiday and, not feel like poop.
4solace, rest up for your chat my friend....you will need it!
ME>>>>>The children decided last night that they would like to do Christmas eve dinner and Christmas morning breakfast instead of Christmas day dinner. This now means that I have to spend all day today cooking and prepping. Cream puffs, pudding, bread dough etc. Good gravy...just when I thought today would be restful.
In all actuality though...I am so excited for Christmas and, I could care less if I cook today or tomorrow...just as long as my kids have a great Christmas and my family is together. We could live in a paper box, it would not matter.
Hugs and support to you all!
I am checking in and out for now. It is back to bed time for me. Day 4 of migraine........
Have a great Friday and be safe if you are out shopping and driving. The crazies are out.
Big gentle hugs.

Ducky , I'm with you . As long as my family is together and the kids all enjoy themselves I will be happy and always so thankful that I have hem.
Pauli , I hope each day you keep and stronger .
As for me I will give you 3 guesses what I'm doing. Yes I've even already had the UPS man here for a delivery. I just look up a moment ago and there was a baby deer staring at me. He walked to the tree and got a few berries then walk across the street. I love seeing them . They are so pretty. Well not when your driving. Lol hugs and lots of love to all Susie
I hope all will be careful with the baking and cooking. There is just so much bending even when you are trying to be careful.
Cherry, I hope you will have a few days off to just laze around. What gets done gets done at this point. Remember the story of the Grinch, Christmas will come with all it's true joy anyway.
Me, I will be watching my grandson today for a few hours and will catch up on laundry there as they have a dryer. I will have my grandson pull everything out for me in exchange for treats so I don't have to bend.I am still hurting from the surgery so everything is done in small doses.
I think I will have Christmas eve dinner and then Christmas breakfast with my sister. Just hoping I don't have to buy all the food. Christmas dinner will be with my youngest daughter and her inlaws.
Hugs to all,
Barbara
I pretty much died last night. I went to bed around 10 and Joy got up with the boys this morning and I just got out of bed at 10 this morning. That's a record for me, I was in bed for 12 hours. Of coarse I feel awful right now, I was 5 hours late with my meds and I'm really stiff from being in bed that long. Oh well, at least I'm rested.
Wow, hard to believe that tomorrow's the big night. I guess I'm ready. The kids are both excited to say the least.
We always make a snack night of it and whip up a bunch of goodies and then exchange gifts in the evening. Then I stay up and wait for the kids to go to sleep so I can do my Santa duties. Victor knows but he plays along for Erics sake. Anyway Victor should be surprised because I don't think he thinks that Santa will bring him anything but we have to keep up appearences for Erics sake so I think he's not going to be expecting anything.
It's a good thing I'm rested up the next few days will be kind of restless for me. I'm taking it as easy as I can today to prepare, plus I'm feeling like a twisted up pretzel right this minute. I still have things to do this morning that I usually have taken care of by 6 or 7.
It's going to be nice having Joy home for the next week, I'm really worn out and the kids have kept me busy.
I'm laying on my electric blanket in my recliner trying to loosen my back a little. I really need to go boil myself in a hot tub and try to get moving. I just cant seem to move yet.
Best wishes to all, and good luck to those with last minute things to do,
Mike
Today I am doing the same so that I can enjoy Christmas with my family!!!!
I hope that you all have a good day... remember, one day at a time and this too shall pass!!
I so hope everyone gets the rest they need for all the activities that are happening and are getting ready to happen.
Love & Hugs,
Toni
