that I got all my shopping done!!!!
I only bought one gift this year and that was for my wife. That wonderful woman bought for the kids, in-laws, and god knows who else :) I will help her wrap it all this Saturday in our yearly 3 hour wrap extravaganza. We have it down to a science now though and it's just like an assembly line.
Breakfast. Favorite meal of the day.
Having a really good job
coffee
My wife has just recently started drinking coffe and loves it. This from a woman who hasn't had a cup her whole life. I do not like the taste but love the smell and caffeine.... My morning go to. I see a coffe maker in our house before to long and I am sure I will get roped in.
A great meet for our daughter today! Started off awesome on the parallel bars and her grip twisted and she dropped from pretty high. Fell to the floor and her coach told us she fell the right way. I am grateful that she wasn't hurt bad. She continued to the next event even though her coaches wanted her to sit out. Then ended up taking first place in 3 out of the 4 events and placed in overall . I sit and watch the video of her falling and it scares the hell out of me. I am so proud that she went on. I pray before all meets that she stays safe and I am always glad that when no one gets injured at the meets.
Very cool BABY. Yes injury are always in the back of my mind as a parent too. My 11 year old plays tackle foot and that age they are not too fast or strong but every now and then a kid goes down for a bit. It's so tough letting them do what they love and not letting that panic rat lose. It's great she finished strong but surprising the more I get to know her parents.
MUCH needed me time this morning. Time to take the mask off , recharge...back on for the day.
A hot breakfast at the table with my wife not often we get to do that
I am thankful that I am not materialistic anymore (used to be when I was in my 20s). I know I can be just as miserable surrounded by nice things and a warm house as I can be living on the streets with nothing. The material goods do not help - if anything, what you own actually owns you.
for my girl coming over for the first time....been cleaning crap for 2 days ....I know some don't care and she really don't....but im trying my best to make the right impression....firewood is in the fireplace...and she is staying the night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!fingers crossed....shit im a gitty 45 year old....hey how does that song go:
"you make me feel so young"
lmao....wish me luck gang....nervous
My wife and I sent the kids to their grandparents so we could wrap presents. For me Christmas is not about the gifts, it's about family. Although I try to instill this to my 4, 7, and even my 11 year old, the presents play a big part. We keep things simple a few each kid. When we were done I looked at the tree and I am just really blessed that my wife and I are together, have jobs, and can make this Christmas special for the most important people in my life.
24hr tv when I can't sleep. I remember when stations went off the air and would show a loop of the flag.
I slept past 3 am for the first time in a week
