~I need another week...~

Before Christmas! I'm so not ready or in the mood for Christmas. It feels like it should be at least another week away. I've been so busy getting started with my new job and trying to get it organized that the whole month of December has slid right on by. Now it is Dec 21st and I don't even have the groceries for the Christmas dinner that I am hosting for us, Mary and Cole and a girl I work with at Reitmans. I know we're having Prime Rib (I'm bucking the trend of turkey every year) I think we'll have mashed potatoes, or baked, veggies, ceasar salad, yorkshire pudding, gravy, apple crisp, butter tarts....lots of red wine. That's where I'm at. Did I mention I don't even know how to cook Prime Rib? All I know is slow...... But I figure the butcher can help me or I'll google it. Not to mention I'm a pretty good cook to begin with. Anyhow, here's hoping it turns out.

Oh yeah, and the house is a mess. A complete freaking mess. I'm just going to take everything and pile it on the spare bed, close the door and deal with it in January. Which incidentally is when my friend Jess is coming to visit. Oh yeah, the first week. Which means that I actually would have to clean up the spare room too. Here's hoping I get a molly maid service for Christmas!

Oh and in case you didn't notice it yet, no Christmas cards this year from us. Nope, sorry I didn't do them this year. I will send you some pics of Ethan when I figure out why my printer won't work but other then that you'll get whatever I post here for Christmas this year. Maybe next year!

Well that's pretty much it for us. I have a funny story about a meeting with my first daycare provider but I'll type it up and post it later. Plus I've now figured out how to use my webcam so watch for shots of Ethan on here in the near future!

I do hope everyone else is feeling ready for the season. I sure don't!
