The cat’s been hunting rats and leaving them in the kitten’s food bowl. She has no idea what to do with them.
Finally got DH to let me teach him how to play Canasta. He beat me.
Lighters sure make a bang when they explode!
Setting up ramps and stepstairs so kitten can use the bathroom window rather than the one in my bedroom. It’s too cold for that to be open.
Stomped out into the cul-de-sac in my bathrobe and boots to ring Santa’s jingle bells.
Kids are in bed but too wound up to sleep.

Haha! DD is shoveling the driveway. The shovel’s nearly as tall as she is.
Watched the kids at their school Xmas concert. DD played the glockenspiel. So cute.
Xmas tree… done!
Age 10 DS already moody and slamming doors. Can’t wait for teen years.
Holy crap! It’s 14 degrees out. It never gets that cold here in the valley.
Getting the house all Xmassy. We never have enough lights. How does that work?
Teaching my kids all the card games I grew up playing. They are fascinated that things that aren’t electronic are actually fun.
Deflowering Cirelda SMT. She’s as joyful as ever, but needs to rest,
Why are there fruit flies in my bathroom? Exactly whose backside smells like peaches, I ask.
DH’s birthday today. Happy 38th, old man!
Having a bra day.
On the plus side, the mucus monster seems to be on its way out.
Something is wrong with Eris. Screw it. I’m off to bed.
DH likes Celtic folk music?! After twenty years the man is still full of surprises.
Think all that Nyquil caused brain damage. Head full of feathers.
I found the kids, eventually. Who’s panicking?
My valve is leaking.
AWWW the man found my whip song. Who loves me?
Music, not reading. wound up.
Clinical trial for fibromyalgia but of course i dont qualify.
Menfolk still sleeping, kids off to school. It’s eerily quiet in here.

*humming* Where there’s a whip, there’s a way… Left, right, left, right…*la de da*
Family hacking so much it sounds like a TB ward in here. Can’t seem to kick this cough.
