Seeing as it is 4:30 on Friday afternoon, my brain has officially checked out of work-mode. Well, actually, it was only halfway there to begin with since I woke up this morning. Lunch was fabulous, and filling, and expensive….but well worth it! Carla and I went to Brazzaz, our “inexpensive” Brazilian steakhouse that has a lunch special ($20 as opposed to the $50 it normally would be). The food is so delicious but I always end up overeating and then when I get back to work I just want to take a nap at my desk! I think I’ll hit Starbucks on my way to the train so I have some pep when I pick up the kids. Tonight I’ll order a pizza, do a very little bit of house cleaning, and watch a movie with the kids. The next four days are going to be very busy…
Tomorrow my friend Dan and I are taking Tristan downtown to go ice skating. After that, we’ll come back home and make a gingerbread house. Now the ice skating is going to be fun. I’ll probably fall a bunch of times and I’ll end up with a lot more bruises, but it’ll be fun. The thing I’m looking forward to the most, however, is building that gingerbread house. I have never in my life made one, seen one being made, or even seen the finished product, so this is going to be a blast. I figured I’d let Tristan choose the candy that he wants to decorate it with…who cares about traditional! If we’re not too tired, we’ll bake some cookies, too. Saturday evening I’m going to take Trist to see the new Alvin and the Chipmunks movie. I wish Cass would be around to hang with us, but I have to remember that she’s a teenager now and just wants to be with her friends or boyfriend.
Sunday won’t be so busy I guess. The highlight of the day is my Packers are playing the Bears and I can’t wait to watch it! Other than that, I’ll probably just finish laundry and cleaning the house.
Christmas Eve the kids and I are going to my grandparents’ house for dinner. That will be nice.
Christmas I’m going to Dan’s house and he’s going to cook dinner. Then after that we may go see I am Legend. I saw the previews for it a couple times and it looked really good.
Then back to work on Wednesday, but two out of my three attorneys will be on vacation so it won’t be a busy week at all!
Anyway, Merry Christmas to everybody!
