Dec. 11th, 2011 05:41 pmWent with the Becks to see Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer at the Puppetry Arts Center and then to lunch at Ikea. The second part was what wore me out. Ikea on the weekends is probably modeled after some level of hell.
Yesterday we went to mom's so the kids could do their gingerbread houses. Friday we had our annual Christmas shopping day where apart from scoring $180 of The Body Shop stuff for $35 we got not an awful lot done. Jack's presents are all purchased though and that's really what we needed to get done while he was with Grandma. The girls stuff we can get during the week.
Tomorrow Thomas has to get up at 5am to make sure the kids are at school by 5:30 for a three day trip to Jekyll Island. Insanity. He's taking the week off work so he can crawl back into bed and we can sleep till Jack forces us up. It should be a fairly peaceful week of basking in the glow of the Christmas tree and watching fluffy tv shows with maybe a bit of Christmas shopping. I'm looking forward to it.
My mood has been good. I've made peace with people not being who/what I wanted them to be and am moving along. The depression has been mostly staying away and I'm enjoying the season. Yay.
