Today's order: Grande Non-Fat, No-Whip, Extra-Hot Gingerbread Latte
God bless family. My MIL saved my sanity by taking care of the kids while my husband and I went away for a week at the beginning of the month. But, boy... am I done with houseguests!!!
My MIL arrived on the 28th of October, and it's been non-stop revolving door on my guest room since then. My MIL was here until the 16th of this month. While she was here my husband's brother and his family came for a visit. The day after they all left my sister and her family arrived on their way back home from Australia and stayed for the week.
It doesn't sound like a lot when I type it all out, but it's been nearly a month of non-stop houseguests, and I'm kinda glad it's over.
Don't get me wrong - the visits have all been very pleasant. There has been good food, good drink, good conversation, and a bit of sightseeing thrown in for good measure. We even had a couple of birthday parties (Jr.'s 2 now - OMG!). But I'm done with being the hostess. I want to feel ok about just ordering pizza for dinner. I want to sit in front of my tv and watch whatever I want, instead of what my guests enjoy. I want to catch up on my blogging!!!!!
So, here I am. It's Friday night. I'm going to pour myself a drink, do a little blogging, and then catch up on the eleventy-hundred things on my PVR.
Life is good. How about you???

I have had to sit on my hands to keep from calling you. I'm glad to see your lovely, um, font? That'll do. :)
We've missed you -- well, I've missed your entries and I'm sure many others have as well!
Welcome 'home' ^_^
welcome back! missed you and your drink order!
Well hello! Glad to hear things have settled down.
If you want even more time, I fully suggest the Barbie A Christmas Carol DVD. It will buy you time for at least 30 blog posts and an eggnog latte. Welcome 'home.'
I know what you mean. I love having guests and all, but sometimes it's nice to just be able to have your house to yourself again, even when the visits are all extremely pleasant.
