Weekend, HO!

Well, I'm still armpit deep in work, and yet, still strangely compelled to fill you in on my plans for the weekend. Yes, aren't YOU the lucky one.

There's a tree to put up, two weeks worth of laundry to wash, some Christmas shopping with the kids so they can get Mommy something (No, son, I don't think she wants a Harry Potter Lego set. No, Catherine, you probably don't need to buy her some leopard-print bras--she takes care of that on her own. No, we're not through yet. Well, yes, it's a very nice washing machine, but that's gonna be hard to wrap. No, we're not through yet. No, Ashley, we can't afford a new van. Put that back. Come here NOW and stand RIGHT here. No, I don't think she wants a Micropet. Or a guitar.) and there's some assorted craft stuff that Reba's been working on for the past few weeks that will probably require me to get dirty or go to the hardware store, I have ANOTHER fake shutter that has unattached itself from the front wall of the house, and I STILL have to get the seat cover on my truck (and drive it some--I fear he's getting stiff and that's not good), and we will need to go see Grandmama and check on her and make sure she's not polishing the roof or waxing the driveway in her postoperative state, and then there's the Nigerian E-mail Christmas Cards I'm going to send to everyone (THE BABY JESUS HAS A LARGE BOX OF GOLD LEFT OVER, AND WE ARE CONTECTING YOU TO HEPL US GET IT OUT OF THE COUNTRIE!), and then we have church on Sunday and later that afternoon we have Bible Bowl for the kids (a Q&A competition with some other local congregations on various books of the Bible--thankfully it's not across the county this time but at our building) and there's that great huge fat Sunday paper screaming to be read, and all sorts of other things that you could probably guess at. Or, just check in Monday and see what transpires.

Have a happy weekend!
