OK! I finished the photo frame project last night. I didn't do bells and whistle, which I'd like to do next time, but I think my mom will be bowled over by having something like 230 pictures, mostly of 4 or her grandkids. Actually, the other two visited this year, so there will be all six of them, some in the same picture!
Today, I need to get a couple bikes ridable, so the younger two can go to W's father's house and walk his dog. I believe there is bribery involved, but I wasn't in on that. Also have to go to the grocery store to get prepared for Christmas, and then I am going to clean this room. The order might change a bit. I figure if I start in here, I can be in a better frame of mind when I get up. Getting rid of the cluttered mind will be a challenge, Jeanette, I think I am a bit ADD, and stuff flies through all the time. Some of it is useful! Maybe I can at least get things to flow in the same direction!
I've got a bike from the 70's, can you make it work for me? Can you make it burn off calories while I sit with my laptop and drink flavored coffee?
How did your blue sky day finish out? get all that stuff done and crossed off the list? feel good?
About my tree, H did just like he said, fitted it to the stand and got it in the house, then boogied outahere. That was fine by me as he was really scroogey by that time. It should be even more fun to get it back out of the house!

On the bike, I don't know, I'd give it a shot, though! If you bring rolls. The laptop and flavored coffee thing, I don't know if I can help there. Might be ways, have to think about that....
Got some stuff done. W texted, and then finally called (her brother doesn't have a landline, and the cell service isn't so good) asking me to see how much it would cost to send S10 (today!) up there, as his younger cousin was disappointed that he didn't go. I spent about an hour and a half trying to accommodate her, before I remembered that he is signed up for a 3 on 3 soccer tournament Saturday, so he really can't go, since it messes up other people. We kicked around S13 going, but that got kicked out, too, eventually. So that was a waste of time, at a time I was motivated. Hmmm, ticket probably would have bought a mattress, too. Anyway, I can see the bed now, so that is an improvement, The half I'm not using was getting piled pretty high! And got some paper trash out, I tend to bring the mail in here to sort, and the credit card offers and stuff seem to multiply and pile up! Still lots to do, but might wait til Wednesday, with birthday today, and something or other tomorrow!
So how does the tree look? And how can he be scroogey with a tree around? That's not right!
W is in ID right? what part? cell service does suck in a lot of areas in the great west.
How did she expect you to send S10? don't they need supervision to travel at that at age? and the cost of a same day ticket! hey, you SURE she's not MLC?
She's in Sand Point. They fly into Spokane. There is actually a non-stop from Tucson, so I learned something yesterday! Or I would have to take him to Phoenix to get a non stop. For an extra $50 they promise not to lose him! They won't take them that young on connecting flights.
Hmmmm, maybe she's doing MLC with a bit of a different style. Right now don't think so, but could see it happening. Starting where we are now, think that would be it. I don't think I could take that on top of the current situation!
Congrats on the room cleaning project. Tidy house = tidy mind, really. Unless it's temporarily untidy, like when....urgh, I guess that's party thread material...
Hey, Merry Christmas to you and yours. May you find quiet and peace as you need it.
But I'll work on it some more today while I'm baking a birthday cake! The birthday boy wanted IHOP this morning, which actually worked well since the oldest brother works from 11 to 7. So I ate too much for breakfast. Who would have thought of cheesecake pancakes, and how was I supposed to resist?
Merry Christmas to you, too! Somehow I expect peace and quiet won't be the order of the day in the Tigger house! But I bet it will be fun!
Does that work the other way? for $50 they WOULD lose a W for a while? I didn't realize today was your sons birthday too. Did you update your sig line yet? I was thinking since when does Jesus like cake and IHOP?
Hey, I made croissants yesterday, does that count like rolls? They must. H didn't want any when I offered. He waited until later when I wasn't close enough to make any comments.
Merry Christmas to you. Enjoy the time with your boys.
