After 8 inches of snowfall in the morning the sun came out and the roads were made passable. Phil was able to come home for supper. I know he was glad to not have missed frozen chicken patties and fries!

Preparing for Christmas
Wednesday, December 23rd, 2015
The last days of Advent are here. Christmas is at the door and as exciting as it is, I feel the crushing weight of Christmas preparation. I strive to keep up with the daily as I long to prepare ahead of time what I want to have done for Christmas.
Freezer meals during Advent isn’t going to happen, the baking to have ready to enjoy Christmas day, probably not going to happen either.
But I so wanted the decorations ready to go cuz that’s the fun part of preparing. I keep saying, I’ll get them done just after I sweep up this mess.
Wash the kids clothes.
And deal with this house! Well, it’s not all going to get done before, so I try to do a bit of the Christmas fun and preparations in between all the not so fun parts.
