and it hits...

Two days off this past week because there were too many sick students & teachers at school, and it finally hits me. I'm not sure what it is, but it's not fun. I'm so tired and I've been on the couch all day. I hope it passes quickly, that's all that matters to me. At least I got to watch a winning game! Go Buckeyes!!

Beyond that, Christmas has visited our home! Our stockings are up, the tree is up, the decor is ready and the outside lights are on! YEA!! Christmas is BY FAR my favorite holiday. Probably a little more so this year since we decided not to exchange presents with our siblings. Not that I don't want to shop for them, but it always seems so annoying to say "here are 3 things I want you to pick from". I preferred the old days when I was a kid and I got someone what I thought they wanted without any thought to if they'd like it or I'd disappoint them. I'm looking forward to time just relaxing with family and playing with the boys and their gifts. Low-Key Christmas is my theme this year!
