We’re under a huge blanket of snow right now. Maybe that’s a good thing. Maybe it will make me finish my Christmas crafting. I sure as heck can’t get out of here for a few days. The news predicted something much worse than this (don’t they always?) so I relieved that there’s less than a foot outside and no wind.
Keagan is not a fan of the snow. He likes running around in it, but he does NOT like how it feels to touch it. And he won’t wear his mittens. I will try again tomorrow, but everytime the cold hits his hands, he screams. Maybe if I distract him, the mittens won’t bother him somehow.
With only a few days left until Christmas, I still have much to do. I should be feeling “the stress” right now, but for whatever reason, I am staying calm. That’s a good thing, but I need to get my bottom in gear to get done in time. I have to paint a table for my son, finish his felt board, make and embroider some ornaments, finish some finger painting projects with Keagan and embroider some handprint poems for the grandmas. And do a lot of baking. But it should all be fun and I am doubting hubby will be able to work most of this week because of the weather and has Christmas eve (and Christmas) off, so I bet he will be around a lot to keep track of kiddo while I work. If I felt like it, I could finish the felt board tonight. Maybe I will.
Today was my birthday. I’m 26. I am mildly bummed about the big day as we’d planned to go out of town, but too many roads were closed to accomplish that. We’ll go eventually, so it’s not too upsetting. I am kind of bummed that hubby passed out on the sofa about ten minutes after Keagan fell asleep. Oh well. It’s just a day. Jesus has always beat me for birthday attention anyway 😉 I am okay with being second to the Son of God.
Okay. I’ve rambled enough. I hope those who read this are well and that you have a wonderful Christmas if I don’t blog before.
Happy brithday, and happy snowed-in-ness. My dad was pretty thrilled about this storm. But, you guys are lucky. A good couple inches of snow and no one has to work or go to school. Out here, a foot is nothing much… we work and go to school in nearly every situation except an ice storm. Happy crafting… I definantly know it can be hard to get any of that stuff done with a little one wanting to “help” =).
