Recharging
My office looks like a bomb hit it, my dining room table is covered in laundry that needs to be folded and I have a closet full of gifts I picked up the day after Thanksgiving or bought online that need to be wrapped before a certain sneaky kid finds them. Fortunately I had the forethought to send his main present to my mother’s house.
But before I tackle all of this, Pumpkinhead and I are going caroling in the back of a hay-filled pickup truck at church tonight. Then tomorrow it’s shopping with my mother (for my bazillion cousins!) and meeting up with my cousin for lunch to give her the portrait I had done (I hope she likes it!!!) At least I found time to frame that last weekend.
Last night we all went to sleep at 8:30!! Pumpkinhead and I came home and laid down on the couch to watch Charlie Brown’s Christmas. By the time Chapin arrived home at 8, I was passed out on the couch with Pumpkinhead sitting on top of me. Chapin said, “That’s it, we’re going to bed early!” So we all went upstairs for baths and everyone was in bed and asleep by 9. I feel MUCH better this morning. Now it’s off to find warm clothes for caroling tonight. Hope everyone else is recharging, too. ![]()

Caroling in the back of a pickup truck filled with hay…so nice… wait… what?! Where the hell do you live that you can hang out in the back of a pickup truck at this time of year? If I tried to do that I would lose all my major limbs to frostbite. Seriously, why didn’t I go to law school in Hawaii?
