kyle and i got most of our christmas visiting done already (we just got back from michigan), so now we can relax and enjoy the holiday together, well sort of. kyle has to work the following:
christmas eve
christmas day
day after christmas
day after the day after christmas
new year's eve
new year's day
day after new year's day
day after the day after new year's day
of all of those days, i only have to work new year's eve (day). needless to say, I have decided to come up with things to do so that I don't end up just sitting around on my ass.
here's what I did today (day 1):
watched the price is right
called to refinance my mortgage
took the dingo to the frisbee park
drove kyle to work
went grocery shopping
made yummy broccoli slaw salad
baked cookies (I left them in a taaaad too long...a bit crispy)
baked muffins
here's what I still plan to do today:
watch the movie 'saved' - thank you steph for all of the wonderful movies you have bestowed on me:)
start a new book
paint a picture frame
research making a slip cover for my couch (dingo's claws keep snagging the fabric)
wash the dishes
take a bath
fold the laundry
feed our friend's cat
pick up kyle from work
(note, some of the previously mentioned tasks may take place while I watch the movie)
might as well make the most of my vacation days :)
hope you all are looking fine and feeling good!
signing off for now~

We love you Connie, hope your holiday season treats you and kyle well. Enjoy "Saved." It's a good one. We are thinking of you both here in Portland!
Love Bob & Megan
That sucks about Kyle! If I were you I'd look into some sort of replacement husband for the time that he's away...perhaps a Hungarian man in need of a visa?
On a somewhat contradictory note, you sure are being hell of a good little housewife while he's gone!

I feel so special that I get to be there for you in your time of need! (With Saved and all)
