auntbijouMy time sense has been sooooo distorted lately. For some reason, today feels like FRIDAY instead of Saturday....er... it is... Saturday....right?
Anyway, my brain has a glitch in it that keeps trying to tell me tonight is Christmas Eve, prolly because my best friend, her hubby, and offspring are coming over for dinner. I'll get through it, but I hate it when I'm like this, because it just throws EVERYTHING off! *laughs* Funny thing is, the "weather in Texas" phenomena is striking again, and we're expecting SNOW FLURRIES tonight! Which is another thing that keeps throwing my inner clock off and keeps insisting it's Christmas Eve because... snow and Santa, right?
I'm trying not to be unhappy because we WON'T be going to Houston for Christmas. I know the Husbandly One is right, that we'll be exhausted because, well, you know how it is. Just when you finally drop off to sleep on Christmas Eve, one of Santa's elves comes and shakes you awake and says there was a blizzard over Omaha or something, and Santa's falling behind so WE have to be the ones to set the toys up, so get your butts out of bed, blah, blah, blah (yes, that is actually how Auntie has covered her butt when the Impertinent Daughter was five and caught her parents putting wrapped presents under the tree and it WORKED!!). So, it would be hurry up, get everyone up, unwrap the prezzies, shovel breakfast down our throats, run to Houston, unwrap the prezzies, shovel dinner down our throats and rush back here. And Auntie still gets so wiped out just grocery shopping that she takes a three hour nap afterwards. So, we'll be going to Houston next Friday instead.
Well, I'd better go eat some breakfast. I've got a lot to do before I find myself nodding over the dishes, or snoozing while trying to fold laundry.
Toodles!
