Weekend Musings

November 24th, 2007 at 06:04 pm

I had a nice visit with my family back in PA. We really had a lovely time of talking and sharing and eating. We would start in one room and then move into another for more talking then again we would some how all move into another room.
Funny how we migrate! It was my mom's birthday as well--she seemed to like the gifts I brought her. We got back on Friday around dinner time my son and I. My girls made it back from their dad's. I guess they had fun. I missed them. I tried to call them on Thursday but it was so loud where they were at I had to cut the telephone call very short. I could hear my ex's family and they were all talking loudly. Part of me was so glad I was not there. I hated the Hoildays with them as they were mostly snobs and most of the time I felt like I never measured up. It felt good knowing I could be myself and feel accepted with my family.

Today we raked leaves all morning. AS a treat.....the kids who helped are gettting SUBWAY for lunch. Those who choose to be lazy get nothing. We got alot of the leaves up. It was harder because we also had some snow and ice to contend with. We are putting up our Christmas tree this afternoon and then tonight I Am baking chocolate chip cookies...tons for us and to send back to college with my son. I have not gone to one store....although I may tonight as my son needs some jeans. I also have to grocery shop since we have no turkey leftovers of course. I put up our Christmas wreath outside on the front door with a spotlight. I used to put up lights all over the porch but it was alot of work. I am hoping that my kids do not care and I can get away with a spotlight and wreath. For fun...I worked on my journals and read my book. Enjoyable!

I hope you all have a nice stress free weekend. It sure has been lovely for me---I certainly appreciate the family time and the slow pace of these days.
