On our way to town yesterday "Tootsie Roll" came on the radio... it may have been the highlight of my night right next to my bahama mama & the shenanigans at our table at applebees (cause clearly that's where the cool kids go) 

I haven't posted in awhile and it's because Christmas is kicking my butt.... it's only 13 days away & counting. Trying to figure out which gifts are from mommy & daddy and which are from Santa may be the hardest thing I've had to do in awhile lol. Not sure what that says about my life. Because, you don't want Santa to show you up. My worst fear is that my daughter will jump for joy when seeing what Santa brought and completely forget about my gifts, when we both know that I bought the kick ass gifts too. Toss in a mimosa and I could possibly claim to be Santa... shattering the illusion forever. This statement may have made me sound like a lush... let me clarify. Every Christmas morning my mom had a mimosa or a few give or take so now that I have my own kids and do the whole Christmas thing I completely understand whey she opted for that after her coffee instead of just another cup. Even though it's a time to celebrate and appreciate your family, it is crazy stressful. The amount of cooking I'll have to accomplish is daunting... the wrapping and the praying that the cats don't destroy the wrapping paper before the kids come in, the numerous phone calls from relatives that come at the most inconvenient time possible.... Christmas has stress written all over it.

I am so behind on Christmas cards I have to frantically address them today and mail them out tomorrow. The funny thing is though that I had planned on ordering them in November and mailing them out the first week in December, so it's not like I forgot about them this year I just pushed it back a few weeks lol. My man re-arranged my closet last week...who knows why, but he misplaced my address book. So today should be full of excitement. 

On another note, I'm still waiting for my new furniture to arrive so I can go pick it up. I am so excited to post the after pictures for my front room... you have no idea. 

Have a great day!
