its FRIDAY !!! woohoo !!

That’s kind of what I’ll be doing all evening, being lazy,, but I have LOTS to keep me busy tomorrow,

I want to get my housecleaning done and get my christmas decorating done. everything except the tree !!

Plus I have neglected the laundry all week so have LOTS of that to do too !!

I have so much junk to get rid of , papers to go through , sort , shred , throw out ect.

Tomorrow will be the perfect day to do it all too because we’re suppose to get some nasty weather so a great day to be inside accomplishing something.

Now the down side to this is.. Wendell will be home all day and I hate trying to clean when he’s home,  we have two totally different idea’s on how things should get done, ME I like to get to it and stay at it until its complete ! I can’ t sit and relax knowing that I still have stuff to do.  WENDELL on the other hand hates when I fly around all day getting stuff done because he thinks you should do a little then sit a while , then do a little and sit a while..

SO we get on each others nerves in that respect !

maybe it will be nice enough that I can get him to take the dogs for a while and maybe return some movies that need to go back to the store :)

Sunday I’ll do a little grocery shopping , and maybe even do some more wrapping !

I want to get most things done this weekend because next weekend is pretty booked up and well after that its just getting to close for comfort to not have things done !! the weekend after next I would like to get the tree and have that up … seems a never ending list of things to get done between now and Christmas no matter how early you start there is always something that still needs to be done !

Of course in between all this Karla could have the baby,  I am telling myself that when she has the baby , and if she stays here like she’s planing to,,, whatever is done at that point will be what is getting done, I’ll want to spend my free time spoiling that new grandbaby :) not rushing around trying to make over my house!

So with a little luck and some help from my sister Loralee tomorrow will see a transformation of my house :)

If it all happens as planed I’ll post some pictures for you to see :)

in the meantime for any of you who enjoy Maxine, check this out

Well Karla was to the Dr today for her check up and was told she is at 1cm and the baby is in position, so she can go anytime of course she could stay at a cm for quite some time before going into actual labor.Here is what she lookes like right now.

Wow time is flying by fast, I’ve gotten more emails with the christmas countdowns on them than I can count !!

Although I LOVE Christmas I am MORE excited about 2 other things right now,,,

1. the arrival of our grandbaby (only 3 weeks to go !)

2. Kevin and Shan arriving home (27 more sleeps !)

I am excited for Christmas to get here but not for the gifts or anything like that, I am excited because I will be surrounded by the people I love more than anything and that is the best thing in the world !!

I had thought we wouldn’t be attending any Christmas parties this year, but my beautiful Sister in Law Viv called this evening and informed me that the local Lions Club is having an appreciation Christmas party for people who have helped out over the years and I am invited, So on Dec. 8th I’ll be attending a Christmas dinner where they will serve Chinese food and then have entertainment and dancing after . Sounds like a great time !! I am looking forward to going :)

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend !

here are some random thoughts for you for the weekend :)
