You would think with this being one of my favorite times of year I would be all joy and happiness however , I seem to be in some sort of a slump the last few days. I think it has to do with several things. One , I have been so busy I am surprised I remember my name , Two, we are coming up on the one year anniversary of the death of my grandmother , grandfather and two uncles. Three , I know this will be our last Christmas away from home ,"home" meaning on the land where we are building . This should be enough to have me doing cartwheels but have I ever told you that patience isn't a virtue of mine? I can't wait til this time next year. You would really think that I would be ecstatic but I am just not feeling it completely this year . I am sure in a few days I will be my normal cheery , Christmasy self .
Tonight we will be attending Bethany's Christmas party with her Girl Scout Troop . Thursday we will be attending my oldest daughter's (Chesney) Christmas chorus concert , plus that night I also have a Secret Pal reveal party but it is an hour before the concert . Saturday our church is doing their yearly breakfast then putting together the Christmas baskets that go out to the needy in the community and I won't be there because Bethany's Girl Scout troop is doing a pancake breakfast fundraiser at Applebee's and I agreed in October to supervise . The kids finally get out of school on Wednesday the 20th and I am excited about that because I am taking a break while they are on break . Yep , I am shutting down until they go back to school . My kids are growing up so quickly that I want every single second I can get , especially now .
It is official , the construction on our new home should begin this Friday and if not then on Monday. I hope nothing else goes wrong so that there are no more delays in the building. I am currently waiting on the power company to tell us where to put the temporary power pole so that our contractor can set that and get moving .The field inspector from the power company was supposed to do that yesterday but he didn't make it so I am hoping today is the day. It will all come together when it is supposed to so I need to quit worrying besides we are almost a month ahead of schedule so I can't really complain.
I posted a little cartoon joke and I hope you like it ! Have a great day!

Well, I'm hoping soon you'll get your Christmas mojo back *wink* :-).
it's really understandable that you'd feel the way you do. don't worry, breazy..take it a day at a time and good on ya for wanting to really enjoy your kids.
Hopefully they won't tell you that you have to have it near the bathroom or something crazy like that. I know what you mean about being in a funk though. I should be bouncing off the walls to go back "home" but I if it weren't for the game right now...I don't think that I would want to go. But it will be exciting to see my parents for the holidays and the rest of my family. Good luck with the ground breaking! I'll email you when I get to WI...xo
