Wow! What a weekend. I swear I was in overdrive most of it. Only to settle down finally at 8:20 last night to watch a football game that was a disaster for my team. Anyway, a million errands later (*read, laundry, changed sheets, cleaned, dusted, vacuumed, bank, grocery shopping, Christmas shopping for the siblings, wrapping for my siblings, Lowes, making stuffing for Pres’ class –eyebrow wax so I don’t resemble Bert and Ernie in Thanksgiving pictures, pedicure, dinner, baking cookies……PACKING and football) we are almost ready! As I said on Facebook I make a good husband and wife to myself. How in Heaven’s name my mother would do this with four! Her and my father would then cook Thanksgiving dinner for no less than 16 people and have all of our friends over for dessert. What’s been cooking otherwise? Well I’m about one month away from closing and here is the house this week: Driveway and walkway going in.
Preston is so excited the pull down attic comes into his room. I’m not really sure the attraction of folding wood stairs, but who am I to judge?
Cabinets and all my crown molding is in!
The dude and I by the fireplace!
Also this weekend, Preston had yet another birthday party! He loves Pump it Up and thinks the P in the bounce house stands for Preston. I don’t have the heart to tell him it’s part of the P U I for Pump it Up.
And what’s cuter than Preston’s headdress? According to his placemat that he created, he is thankful for turkey, (which I have yet to see him eat but he swears he ate it at school), New York (yes, me too dude), the cabs, subways and parade. I was hoping he’d say Mom, but I guess I rank much lower than the NYC MTA. Oh well.
I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving! Safe travels to everyone!!!
