Monday Bright and Early

good grief, things move quickly in the morning lol

to everyone else
i've got a list today. so unlike me on vacation.

I can't believe how many of you have taken it all down already but I guess if you put it up that early I can see being sick of it. We usually only decorate pretty late and leave ours up until at least 12th night! But usually till at least mid Jan!

I haven't taken my stuff down yet but I like it gone by the 1st. I like starting off the New Year with everything put away and clean.

morning everyone! I need to take my holiday stuff down, I like it down before New Years Eve..

not going to do a lot today, might run to Archiver's and take the girl out for some lunch but otherwise, just laying low...

our flight is delayed but not canceled, tick tock, tick tock

Hi everyone! We are packed and ready to head back to Atlanta. I hope I can read without getting car sick (I am getting better at it, esp on the highway)

Not looking forward to 8+ hrs in the car but I miss my bed!!!

home from the office and my boss is crabby as can be I'm trying not to have affect me
so I'm home, I'm going to watch Days of Our Lives and veg and then tonight I will clean off my desk and maybe scrap

Our flight is delayed til tonight, argh....
Just looked in dd's suitcase and she had packed 2 pairs of shorts and flipflops, and ensuing yelling match broke out b/c she had not put in the sweaters, tights, coats I had packed for her... what was she thinking? she's so strongwilled and obstinate.... I guess she just figured we'd buy her more once we got there?

oh my cow Alecia! delayed flight sucks.
but maybe you have time to go home and get DD's things lol

Same here, Mara. Christmas isn't over yet!

Julia and I had a nice nap while Kim and Kacie are out shopping. I think she need a lazy day with no running around just like Grandma.

afternoon girls! just got home from lunch out with Mandi but I've not felt great since I woke up, think I might need to take a nap...

We hit REI this morning to get Z a new hat then lunched at our favorite burger joint... now Bella's down for a nap and I'm getting ready to read an article or two for this paper I'm supposed to write.

My parents are in my house for the rest of the week, so I'm trying to just.stay.calm. with my little house cramped with people.

Just puttin' around. Not being terribly productive. I should work on a layout or something but not feeling it.

Im the last person left in the office. Can't decide between just vegging here and heading home,

Good Morning / Evening Ladies

Woke up today morning to peace and quiet. My hubby and kids have gone away for the week and I am enjoying the quiet. I plan on doing little housework and lots of scrapping to be as up to date as I can.

Exaclty, learnt that in Europe. It doesn't look all lovely and fluffy the whole time once the dogs, cats and cars get to it.

Today I am going to go to an LSS I haven't been to in a really long time. I am hoping that it will be better than the LSS I normally go to that is steadily going downhill.

Quite a few have closed down here too. I am actually going for a 1 1/2 hour drive today just to pick up two punches as the other shops are closed, don't stock good stuff or are too expensive.

Have a safe trip and hope you don't feel sick.

I have been suffering DOOL withdrawal. The cricket is on that channel now so Days won't be on for a while.

LOL I would have let her stay cold... inside missing all the fun... that is how my family would have done too...
