Last night and today have been good. Scott worked and the girls were in bed by 9. I had the entire evening to myself. At first it felt lame but I think it’s just what the doctor ordered. I got a lot of work done on the youth web site and watched The Dark Knight. I couldn’t get into the movie but I felt it was a must-see on account of Heath and all.
This morning we were up and at ’em. I made breakfast and straightened up the house. Scott woke up when we woke up even though he worked last night. He got up and we both got straight to putting up the Christmas decorations. We were completely done by lunch. We ate in and I continued to do laundry and clean.
This afternoon I went to Starbucks to visit with Melissa and her friend Chris. It was a pleasure meeting him and I can see why they’re such good friends. Maybe they’ll let me sit at their lunch table tomorrow ;).
This evening we ate in again (a “goal” for 2009 is to quit eating out so much!) and have been having some good family time in between (still) doing laundry and such.
Most of that sounds kinda boring but being productive at home sounds just right to me.
I put Matthew and Leila to bed not long after talking to you on NYE and re-watched some of Season 6. I didn’t notice it was past midnight until I got up to make some tea! I missed the ball drop, countdown and everything!
We went to church yesterday and then to my parents’ house for another family dinner. We’ll keep the decorations up until the Orthodox celebration on January 7. It’s been a quiet season for us which has been nice.
Hopefully it will work out for you guys to come and “eat in” with us sometime in the summer!
Our very best wishes to you all!
It WAS a good day!! We saw The Dark Knight that night. And technically, it was our lunch table before Chris was even born 😉
