Christmas Confessions:

Lets start....for anyone hanging around.

I'll go first. I need to figure out what we're eating for the next couple of days. All I have in the house is chicken. As for my husband...he has yet to go shopping for my Christmas present. LOL! He's getting ready to leave now.

Re: Christmas Confessions:

  • I don't want to go to my in laws for Christmas Eve this afternoon or to the Christmas Eve Service at church today.  After that we are leaving to go to my parents and really, I want to be selfish and just go see MY family and forget DH's.

  • I don't want to go to my ILs to help w/ dinner tonight.  Tomorrow will be bad enough bc there is so much going on w/ entire IL family.

    I don't want to see my sister's BF at Christmas.  There's something I am not comfortable with about him, but I'm not sure what it is.  She hasn't been to my new house bc I haven't intoduced him to DH.  And I don't plan to.

    I am irritated that DSS' mom is mad that DH didn't drop him off on the way to work this morning.  She is adamant that she has him from noon today until noon tomorrow, but thinks she should have gotten him early bc DH went to work.  The thing is we won't get him early tomorrow when DH gets off work before noon.  (Honestly- DH didn't have time to drop off anyways.)  I just hate that she's so nickel-and-dime about our time with him that it makes me greedy.  We had our Christmas last night so DSS slept in and played some of his games this morning.

  • I have a TON to do today... and I have not started anything.  I'm just sitting around and playing with my new iPhone! 

    Another confession: Our foster dog is going to another foster home.  She has horrible separation anxiety and would benefit from being in a home that has someone home more often.  I feel really bad, but it is the best thing for us and Millie.  This is the first time I've ever had to have a foster leave our house. Sad

  • I wanted a coffee & warmed apple fritter so I took a drawer organizer back to WalMart as an excuse to go that way.  The sad part was, they had turned off the oven by the time I got there.  :(  The upside is I still got my coffee and now I know which one of the three around me will be open almost all day tomorrow!
  •  I came from a family that did Christmas big every year and we all enjoyed it. DH came from a family that didn't really do anything. He hates Christmas movies and music. It's really hard to not tie him down and Clockwork Orange style brainwash him.....

     Oh well. At least we both LOVE LOVE Halloween.

  • Confession: I've gone back and forth with the pros and cons of knocking out my brother in law on Christmas. I've decided to hold off for now... But no promises. Argggggggg. :-)
  • shanwalk- what about k,nocking out your MIL for that recipe? :o) Merry Christmas!!
  • When I'm not on my iPhone and have more time to type out a long story... I'll be back with an outrageous story about that dumb cake!!!!!!
