the ducks, they are nibbling

The hospital chose to send the ($350) bill for the birth of my 5 month old son today, a week before Chistmas.

The photo studio "did not enter my order into the computer" (it was placed online, and I got a confirmation number) so my Christmas cards haven't arrived. In good news, they are sending them next-day, and I should get them Weds or Thursday, and I didn't have to make a fuss.

I lost the big bag of stocking stuffers for all the kids. But then I found it.

I am paying the bills, and it always makes me woeful. This is an especially woeful month.

mr. flea is sick and depressed. I am kind of sick too, but as I am less sick I am the one who has to hold us all together.

I am dreading the drive to Ohio.

It is 75 degress and SO not Christmassy.

The end.

Geez--you are having a very Mondayish Monday, aren't you?

I am vicariously dreading your drive to Ohio. I managed to talk everyone out of Christmas in Michigan this year, thank god. This will only be the second Christmas I've ever spent in my own house.

We literally limp through the end of the year and it just sucks.

Christopher came home today and announced that he's on the low-end of his seasonal low. *sigh* I'm hoping that putting up the tree will fight off the blahs.

It's supposed to be colder here but no snow for Christmas--just temps in the 40's. So maybe it will seem more Christmasy in Ohio? I'm emailing you my cell number so give me a call or if you have email access, drop me a line and let me know what days you're in Chilocothe and I'll try to figure out if we can drive down for a short visit.

My back's been cooperating, DH will have to go back to work so a short playdate/visit might work out for us.

Chillicothe. *sigh* My brain has completely shut down.

oh, yargh. Sorry the ducks are nibbling. I hope their beaks fall off.
