Crumbs

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007
By Beth

I have to be honest with you.  I am not feeling well.  I haven’t felt very well since Sunday.  Call it Post Traumatic Turkey Disorder or an Over-Indulgence in Seeing Too Many Christmas Lights already, or maybe it was All of The Drinking, either way, I’m not feeling well, my stomach and I are having a bit of a misunderstanding, and it’s not fun.

At all.

I’ve been eating a lot of crackers.

Which creates quite the mess.

Which leaves me vacuuming up the crumbs.  All. Day. Long.

Today, I feel a little better, I’ve had some toast and some cereal and an apple.  So far, so good. 

In the meantime, I’ll leave the chores for the children to complete.

And try not to stare at the wildly disturbing "Clown Santa" Racecar brought home from school today.

And then before I do all of that not cleaning and not staring at the scary "Clown Santa", I thought I would leave you with a picture of Racecar’s bedhead.  Because his bedhead alone makes me want to get him out of bed each morning.

Bag Lady

Monday, November 26th, 2007
By Beth

I typically do not make it a secret that I can sometimes be a little, shall we say, domestically challenged.  I mean, when it comes to doing the dishes and wiping the countertops, I typically git r’ done.  But there are some things, like well, folding laundry and cleaning toilets and cleaning the grout in my ceramic floors that are usually ignored.

And then there are other things that come into play that are beyond the typical Domestic To Do List.  For instance, putting away Halloween decorations, (which I did on 11/1) or say, packing away the clothes that no longer fit your children, or putting the summer toys away for the winter, which has not yet been completed. 

or there are things that throw you for a total loop and prove without a shadow of a doubt that I am, in fact, lazy.  (sometimes)  I’m not ashamed, just look at my blog title, I embrace it, (sometimes).

Case in point is the Miscellaneous Bag.

This bag was sent home to me from my sister 15 days ago when we visited them in Louisville.  This bag contained items such as migraine medicine samples, unused sippy cups, nachos and queso (which I did promptly put away.  It’s called priorities, people.), socks and other sundry items.

It sat at the above location in the living room for approximately 36 hours.

At which point I promptly put it on top of my bed.  You know, to take care of it.

But then the day just flew by thanks to all of the blogging and when it came down to bedtime, we then took care of it.

By putting it on the floor next to the bed.  Where it sat for a few more days before I decided "Today is the Day!  I will empty this carn sarned bag once and for all."  So,

I put it back on the bed.

You see where this is going?

And here is where it has been sitting ever since my last attempt when I placed it on the bed.
Somewhere on my bedroom floor.

Sadly, it is now to the point where I don’t even realize it’s there.  But I think today is the day where I empty it out, I’ll do it as soon as I clean the grout with a toothbrush.

I do not approve

Sunday, November 25th, 2007
By Beth

Ever since last Wednesday it has been cold.  Winter-like cold, temperatures in the twenties and thirties.  The morning of Thanksgiving we woke up to snow and although it was exciting for the children, I was not too thrilled and I’ve been chilled to the bone ever since.  It’s disgraceful, really.

I do not approve.  I want my summer back.  I keep thinking that last year on December 3rd the wind chill was eleven degrees.   December 3rd is less than two weeks away.

It’s going to be long, cold, dreary, winter.  Anyone in Florida have an extra room for my family to hibernate?  We’re good folk and I make a mean margarita.  I’d appreciate it.

Love is…

Saturday, November 24th, 2007
By Beth

I love this picture.  Not only because it’s cheesecake and it melts in my mouth and swims in my belly with delight. 
But also because it says to me "no washing dishes for you."

It was the perfect dessert.

Hangover

Friday, November 23rd, 2007
By Beth

Yes, friends.  I am hungover due to over indulgence.  Too much turkey.  Too much green bean casserole.  Too much stuffing. (is there really such a thing?) Waaaaaaaay too many helpings of mashed potatoes.

Not to mention the cheesecake, the tollhouse pie and various other desserts.  And now?  I’m still full.  No really, I am, I woke up at seven this morning still full.

I better go shopping to burn some calories.

Before I eat some more.
