Christmas in review...

Alright, just so you know I am alive and well. Just been busier than usual, and now that Christmas is over I might get a chance to breathe! I thought I would sit here for a few minutes and tide you over with a quick review of the last week or so! Here are some things that happened:

Last week:

It actually snowed at our house! This is the result on Monday.

Then THIS happened on WEDNESDAY!

This week:

Saturday, while in town with family, we went ice skating. I found this little girl to skate with! It was Oh so fun!

Our version of the Nativity. Here are 2 angels, Joseph, Mary, baby Jesus, and a crawling animal.


A couple family parties later and we are back home Christmas morning:

Our tradition: Ebelskivers for breakfast!

Oh so YUMMY!

Now it's today:

Girls way into their new stuff. Mess all around.

Me, listening to my new awesome iPod.

While cleaning and washing bedding!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a happy cleaning!

Had a Bad Day....

***Warning*** Heroes spoiler alert ahead. (sorry Linds!) Although it may or may not be true.

I had a bad day yesterday. It all started when I had to take over when the receptionist had to leave at noon. Then went on with 4 days worth of mail to open. Then the non-stop phone calls. About 50 of those calls were "BEEP, BEEP" some stupid person was trying to send a fax and WOULD NOT give up! Packages were delivered, therefore leaving me no space on the desk. People kept coming and needing things signed and other stuff. I had to write 30 checks, initiating arthritis or carpel tunnel, whichever is more dramatic. When my replacement came in to relieve me I about started to cry, but didn't, and told her I had about killed myself. (I am not suicidal)

Then I get home and my kids are BUGGING me while I am trying to make dinner. The only redemption is that I did a good deed and took dinner to my friend who just moved. One kid decided that the only word she could say to me was "no" all night long (she's almost 8). She was already grounded, and I wanted to further her sentence indefinitely. Unfortunately my DH greatly discouraged that.

After the kids got to bed I folded 2 loads of laundry and cleaned 2 more. Then the WORST thing HAPPENED...

SYLER KILLED ELLE ON HEROES!!! Say what?

p.s. I had a much better day today. But was very clumsy. Just call me Bella, seriously I was THAT bad! Well I didn't get tracked by a blood crazed vampire, so I guess I wasn't THAT bad!
