The Day Before Thanksgiving
It’s finally the day before Thanksgiving! I have to say that today has been the busiest day of the month and I’m not even doing any cooking! I have spent all day cleaning up my office to make room for things that I’ll be moving out of the living room next week in order to put up all of my Christmas decorations. I’m hoping to get the tree up on Friday but that all depends on my fiance and whether or not he gets it out of the attic.
My son came home early today which threw everything off balance. My girls love him so much and when he’s home they are extra silly and loud. Today was off the charts. If you thought you were having an earthquake today no worries it was just my kids running and jumping all over the house. I told my mom it seems like I’m caught in a whirlwind just spinning around and around and it’s the honest truth. I just don’t know how to slow everything down but at least I get to go to my mom’s house tomorrow and enjoy a nice Thanksgiving meal. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving and please take time to give thanks for the many blessings that you have recieved… I know I have so much to be thankful for.
Don’t forget to get your food ready for tomorrow!!!!
