So much to do,,,,still

My word, I feel drained. I have been going non stop the past few weeks and I don't see any signs of it slowing down in the near future. Between repeat illnesses, school fundraisers, family business and attempting to not lose my mind, I am beat.

I don't know why but my boys just don't seem able to stay well this year. Thankfully they have kept it to themselves, but it is hard to see them so miserable. We are preparing for Big Girls birthday party this weekend at my parents. Big bad mommy that I am grounded her from having a sleep over with friends. She is turning 7 and has been begging me to get her ears pierced so that is her big surprise. Hopefully she doesn't chicken out!

The hubs got an early Christmas present. He has been complaining that the old TV was too hard to see, and he didn't want to wear his glasses to watch it so I got him a larger improved model. He is quite happy and cannot wait to watch football this weekend! Of course he had to get the surround sound and blu ray to go with it. Give the man and inch and he'll buy the entire electronics store!

Aside from being sick the boys haven't really been up to much. They are perfecting their tower building skills, and praying daily for snow.

I am on the look out for a dog. I have fallen in love with the English Bulldog breed and their so ugly they're cute faces! Don't tell the hubs though, hes more of a cat person!

We cannot wait for Thanksgiving. Hubs has to work, but is able to spend a lot of the day with us so long as his radio is on and he still takes calls. I don't think I have shared, but he is in law enforcement. Scares the bejesus out of me every time he goes to work, and I quietly thank God every time he comes home safely. Still planning the menu, but I hope to incorporate new dishes and create new traditions for us. This is only our second Thanksgiving away from family and may be our last if he gets his transfer so something new and exciting, at least once, totally needs to be done!
