Why you miss out on the best Blog Posts

I mean to write a blog post every day.  Every night before I go to bed I swear to my self that I'm going to type one up after the kids get on the bus the next day. Cross my heart and all that.  I even start composing  it in my head in the shower.  I think that's the problem.   I compose it in my head, get it all out so to speak and then don't actually feel the need to type it up.

What's been going on ? Not a whole lot...and No, Holly, I am not mad at you.  Thank you for taking the time to actually respond to my post with a thoughtful response.  My husband still has not met with his brother and sister.  Try as I might I just cannot find it within myself to reach out to them or to thaw my heart towards them.  My husband does want to send them Holiday cards and I sat with them in front of me for at least a half and hour before I could even address them.  We'll see if I can mail them.

My Husbands  sister invited me to a shower for the brothers wife who is giving birth to yet another baby they can not afford at the end of the month.  I received the invitation the week of the shower ****and she misspelled my name!****.  Needless to say I did not respond to the invitation or go to the shower.  My husband was on pins and needles the whole day of the event expecting a call from someone (his parents?) expecting to get in trouble for me not showing up or responding to the invitation.  What is he, twelve?

My husbands deal is almost complete and he should be signing his contract this week!  YAY!  I still feel like I can't talk about it yet.  Even when it is signed I won't feel good about it until things actually get moving with the deal.  Still it is amazing all that he has achieved in such a short period of time.  Some people try a whole lifetime for this and he has only been trying a year.

I am looking forward to Christmas for the kids this year.  They are getting a few small things from Santa this year and we are getting them a Wii.  We are relying on relatives to get the kids games and extras to go with it but I think they will love it.  Four more days and then school is out for two weeks.  It will be a big adjustment having them home.  I've definitely been loving my quiet time while they've been at school.

Happy Holidays everyone!
