The Case of the Missing Christmas Decor Box

by 2 Comments

I have been asking my husband (not very nicely sometimes but I try) to find me the Christmas Decor box he put away last year.  He would beg to differ he says I put it away.  Well finally we both went back to the garage to look, cause I told him if I didn’t he would not find it ha-ha.  He wouldn’t think it was funny but I do (sarcasm)  Well in a matter of 30 seconds I solved the case of the missing Christmas decor.

I behold a the missing box, exhibit one

And exhibit two our bare or almost bare tree.

Here are some pics of it at night with the lights on

The picture isn’t the greatest but it’s the best one I got.

My Kitchen Has Been Tackled

It feels good to have won the kitchen battle today.  Here is a pic of my kitchen area all spic and span clean.  Won’t last forever cause those darn dishes multiply like damn bunnies I tell you.

This is not a battle I win everyday, more than not the kitchen wins.

The other mission I had today was our laundry, oh dear it is a mile high almost.   I won’t put pics of the before it is pretty embarrassing really.

Early Early Morning Grumpies

Well my husband had to be at the doctors at 5:15 a.m for his surgery.  Those pesky kidney stones were threatning to cause him pain again last night so we were glad the surgery was scheduled.  We set our alarm clocks for 3:45 a.m., thinking about how long it would take us to get ready and get there.  Oh boy!

We watched some television for a bit and I drank some red wine and got sleepy quick.  My mother in law who was staying over to watch the kids joined me by having a glass too.  My husband just drank water since he was instructed not to drink anything else, poor fella.  Well we all finally got sleepy about 10:00 p.m.  and went to bed.  Notice I said to bed and not to sleep, because my eyes would not close for goodness sake.  I tried my sleepy time app on my iphone to try to relax and nothing, I was wide awake.  I finally got to sleep and my husband, bless his soul scared the living day lights out of me with a big snore.  He hasn’t snored like he did last night in a long while.I

Well 3:45 am came very fast and we snoozed till 4:15 a.m.  I wish I could have taken a rock to the alarm but that wouldn’t have had a good ending, darn.   The worse of it was I couldn’t eat since my hubby couldn’t.  I didn’t want to make him feel bad since he couldn’t drink or eat anything.  I drove and got us there like 5 minutes late, which wasn’t too bad considering we got up late.

After we got there all went pretty fast and a big blur.   I read my google reader while waiting and drank horrible tasting coffee yuk.  About 11 a.m I was called to the recovery room and had a happy but spacey husband who was glad the stone was gone.  Now it’s 4:30 pm and I am tired, spleepy, and on my way to a 30 minute nap at least or this mommy is going to get very grumpy.
