Tom, sorry you're pulling the late shift today.  I routinely clock 60+ hour weeks and travel/work frequently on the weekends.  When I get a free afternoon and can get away early, I grab it and go! I'm going to get some of my weekend errands done and maybe even sneak in a swim.  Pool is usually pretty quiet on Friday evenings.

Take it where you can get it Kim! This job isn't usually too bad with weekly hours, but my last one was HORRIBLE. Early afternoons are truly one of life's great pleasures...

HEY EVERYONE.

christmas shopping for me was a total bust. i have two parties that i need outfits for and well, BAH!!!!

BUT, i did get AAAALLLLLLL the kids shopping done.

Claus and I, we make a super fly shopping team!

theres one item one my youngest sons wish list that we were able to score, but that's just cuz its discontinued.

so lots of items CROSSED OFF.

my husband and i dont shop for each other, and our family (at least as far as i know) is not doing a christmas gift exchange thing at our party....so except for a few teachers gifts, and a book for my Chic Lit Holiday Party, im DONE christmas shopping.

that was nearly as awful as i had anticipated.


the only other thing i need to do is to buy my christmas gifts......FOR ME! 

im not sure we can 'swing' the Garmin just yet, since were gonna be getting the kids a Wii system....

so its looking like more of a SUGOI COMPRESSION SOCK and hopefully fingers crossed an Xterra Wetsuit.

you know youre a triathlete when.....


LOL.


sounds like everyone is BOLTING EARLY from work today, cept TOM. 

poor TOM.


   <------------   my bummer face for TOM.


maybe something will go 'wrong' and you can get out early too, TOM.

as for Christmas crafts ideas....nothing specifically comes to mind except.

GLITTER.

LOTS AND LOTS OF GLITTER.

my plans for the weekend revolve around a party/scrumptious dinner at a favorite resturant with 8 of my best girlfriends.

we've been friends since our 10/11 yrs olds were 3 & 4 in preschool together.

its just soooo much fun when we get together.

we stopped getting the kids together a loooooong time ago.

my youngest son has a birthday party to go to at the same time.....so Dad will be flying solo, but w one down.

we'll probably go and see the Christmas windows at Macys on Saturday....maybe i can talk my family into going down to the Strip District for a bit too.  they LOVE that.  (NOT!)

and perhaps we'll take the kids ice skating since they really enjoyed that last weekend.


im hoping ill get into the 2hr endurance spin, but its not looking good.  ive called the Y 2-3xs both yesturday and today just to see if someone cancelled.  so far, not good.

but im gonna go to the Y anyways, and if a bike doesnt open at the last minute (no show) then ill just go and swim and do some ST and then do the 8 oclock spin instead.

i have bikes reserved for 8&9, but i really dont want to be leaving the Y at 10.

thats the beauty of the 5:45 class, im done and home before the boys even get out of their jammies, sometimes before they're even outta bed.

Any Ghoulishly fun Christmas decorating ideas from the peanut gallery???


2 things that my kids love, but are very messy, are making pine cone bird feeders. You smear the PB all over the pine cone then roll it in bird  feed. OR...  making cookies they can decorate. Generally it seems the more mess it makes the more they like it.

We always do cookies here too, but I'm gonna wait foor a weekend when Mommy is feeling a bit better. The pine cone thing is fun too, but we don't have too many pines around here... 

So far I'm thinking we could do a paper/mixed media project fr decorations we can put on the front door.  Any time the kids can make a mess with glue, yarn, markers, and glitter they're happy.

AWWWW YEAH!  3:30.  that's superific TOM!

anytime on the vibes.


as for the holiday shopping, im glad its D-O-N-E.  i detest shopping even when it isnt Christmas.

i got off lucky this year.  all three of the boys wanted electronics which meant...

their list was UBER short.  Santas on a budget in our house.

and i only had to go to three stores.  it wouldve been two, but the one Game Stop didnt have the game my youngest was looking for and the other Game Stop on the other side of town did.

so YAY for me, overachiever that i am.

[im still impressed...that's the last thing my husband would do w my boys....]

sorry to hear you wife is not feeling well....STILL?  the migrain from Thanksgiving.

totally suckish.

well since my 'getting TOM out of work early vibes' seemed to work, ill send your lovely wife some healthy/get better soon vibes.

Stacie, send me some of those get better vibes. I crashed and burned yesterday. I have something a kin to the flu. I am hoping since I am vertical for a bit that the worst is over. I am missing the memorial service I was supposed to be going to. Not to mention a whole day in bed except for ..... well, you don't want to know about it.

Got the beasts fed, now to take a recovery nap. The month just started and I am behind again!

Tom, LOTS of Glitter and Glue.. Lots..
