Seis días hasta Navidad*
The countdown continues! Yesterday I saw a commercial that said 7 shopping days till Christmas! and I shrieked, "Augh!" Jessie laughed at me and then I was like, "Oh I knew that. It just sounds like less days when they say it like that". Obviously, the holidays have muddled my mind.
Last night, Jessie and I played a rousing game of "Top Trumps" which has still not been finished. I don't think I've talked about our new addictive card game, but ours is a Lord of the Rings version. Its like War (the card game) except the cards each have a different character and they all have attributes which you use to try and "top" your opponents. For example, if I had in my hand, Treebeard (the really tall talking tree) and it was my turn, I would use his height (15' 4") to try and top Jessie's card. Of course, it's a game of luck too, because if he had the Balrog (20' 4') my Treebeard would become his. Confused yet? Just trust me, its a really fun game. :) We got it at Dollar General for a dollar! We get really competitive too, but I won't go into that...
I got Christmas card happy last night also and hung up all the Christmas cards I recieved (all 4 of them...come on family, get on the ball! (Just kidding!)). I have to use everything as a decoration. Its just all too cute. The impending excitement is just getting to be too much for me. Help me! I'm being overcome by Christmas spirit! I wonder if I wasn't a Mom what I'd be like right now. I don't know. I mean, I wonder if I'd have gotten back into church and gotten saved, and also straightened my life up. Or would I be...well I don't want to think about it. My life is my life and its a good life full of people I love and Christmas decorations and toys on the floor (and also food underneath the table on the floor.) I think if I could lose weight that would be the icing on the cake for me. Like Laura, my dear partner in chocolate-eating crime, I'm planning to start a diet-blog after Christmas, (oh and also a diet to go along with it.) I'm tired of this spare tire around my waist! So wish me luck. :)
*Six days until Christmas!

It makes me so happy to read that you love your life. As you know, it's a mother's dream that her children are happy.
