So I’ve had a rough couple of weeks since I last posted. Squeaker gave himself a black eye and fell down the stairs. (He’s okay!) Angel Baby has been more of “Demon Baby” with her whining and new potty issues. Why she has to constantly pee on her panties is beyond frustrating. I bruised a toe pretty badly and just last Sunday, I fell on the stairs. Well slipped down a few stairs and landed on my butt. So yesterday, I had a very sore coccyx. (Hubs was so hilarious when I mentioned it. “You said cock. Hee hee. Apparently, I’m married to a 12 year old. And we all had a really horrible stomach flu thing that stuck around for a full week. I’m happy to say that I lost a few pounds, but come on. There has to be an easier way.
Good news: my office’s holiday party is tomorrow. I can’t
wait to go and have fun. I get to run the White Elephant and it’s always such a
blast to see what present everyone fights over.
Other great things? I’m almost done Christmas shopping. I
only have my Mom and Step-Dad and Dad and Step-Mom left for buy Christmas gifts.
However, I still have to get Hubs something for his birthday. Other than that
it’s just wrapping and finishing up the gifts that I’m making.
Yet more great things? I participated in the Holiday Mix
Tape Swap that Meagan, Sara and Meghan were hosting.
I was matched up with Christine at A day in the life... We sent a few emails back and forth about what music we both liked/were looking for. She did a great job on my tape. It was great! Lots of oldies, newbies, and some that I've never heard before.

I highlighted my top faves from the playlist in Green. Also, I have to say that in perusing all the other mix tape playlists I found out about a great group. Pentatonix. They are AMAZING!!! I had to go and buy their Christmas album on iTunes. If you haven't heard of them. Check them out here.
