I'll Be Home for Christmas...

Oh, yes I will!  I cannot believe in less than two days I'll be back home in my favorite state {which is none other than Missouri for anyone who didn't already know that}.  Two days!  I did, however, get so much accomplished in the last day or two.

It's as if Chelle who kicks major slacker booty kicked it into high gear--and do I dare say that *gasp* I liked it.  Hold on a second--I think hell just froze over....

Because I find everything that got accomplished in 24 hours beyond great, looky at what all got done:

--We paid off our Jeep.  Six months early!  No.more.car.payment.

--But of course now Leo's truck won't start.  Oh, the irony...

--Completed all Christmas shopping for: the parents, the girls, the husband, siblings, husband's siblings, nieces and nephews...

--Bought some adorableness for my new niece who is due to arrive in early May...I could seriously buy baby clothes all day long...

--Finished all of my Christmas cards.  Yay!

--Washed all laundry {and the husband folded it AND put it away!  He must have caught on that Santa would be leaving coal in his stocking....}

So now?  I need to pack for our trip.  Do even more laundry.  And wrap all of the gifts that we have here at the house...

So excited.  So stressed. 

And?

I'll so be having some wine tomorrow nite...I'm in desperate need of a bottle  glass or two....

Totally off topic, but why does my cat always chew on the same branch of our {artificial} tree?  That poor branch is seriously disfigured due to my sweet, sweet Boo Kitty....

WTG, you've done a lot! And, don't you love it when the men help out. It sure does make things go a lot easier.

Safe and happy travels!

I definitely think that packing is one of my most hated things to do...b/c I always OVER-pack - by like a LOT!!
