Christmas Deco Down

Yipee! Jeremy came over today and spent 3 hours putting away all of our Christmas decorations. I don't think I was the last one in the neighborhood to get it done but if I was I'm okay with that. Screw 'em. The removal of ALL of the holiday decorations has made much more room in the house. The playground in my living room doesn't look quite so cramped and small. Haha!
On to other things. Quite a productive day today. Alarm went off at 8:30 this morning and I pushed the snooze and kept on telling Weevil to shut up for about 45 minutes. Finally got up, threw clothes on, made a quickie grocery list (it's gonna snow tomorrow night), grabbed Mom's crock pots and flew out the door. We had to have Tony's Mitsu to the shop by 10am to get the driver's window fixed. It has been stuck down since Sunday morning. (Heck, nobody stole $7 out of his car and the window was down for 48 hours. Dummies!) I was about 5 minutes behind Tony to pick him up. When he got in the X he said he just experienced the coldest trip he'd ever taken. Can't imagine. It was about 15 degrees outside. Brrrrrr!
We next took Libby some formula that a nice lady from the club gave me. I would stop at that but I want to share a funny story that Libby told me this morning. The story is something like this: Her and the girls left for Nashville at 9am to take Tia to the airport for her flight back to Colorado. :-( Anyway, long day for all of them because Tia's flight didn't leave until about 8:30pm but with Libby having all 4 girls with her and a minor having to be checked in 3 hours prior to flight they had to leave mid morning. Weeelllllllll, Sydnee decided she was going to be................Sydnee. Heehee. A guy came up and asked if he could use Libby's charger for his phone. She said yes but beware of the little one. Pretty quickly after that Syd said to this guy "Hi, my name is Sydnee". He introduced then too. She then asked "Do you got any hair underneath there?" (dude had cap on) He responded as he took off his cap "Yes, I just have to keep it short because I am in the army", to which she responded "So is my Daddy & his hair is short too!" Libby said that the guy's girlfriend was sitting a few seats down from them and she leaned over and told Libby "I think he might want kids now." Funny! If the girl only knew about "sweet" little Snurt carrying on this nice conversation with her boyfriend. All of us know Sydnee! Full of life and poopoo and was about to drive her Momma crazy yesterday being a little on the wild side. Heehee!!! I love it!! I just wanted to share this cutie Snurt story. She is something else. I do believe I see quite a bit of her Daddy in her. :-)
Oh, back to today's events........we then headed across town and ate at Cracker Barrel. After eating I happened upon some cute Easter outfits for granddaughters (& a red tractor tshirt for Kendal). Like 'em alot! So, Nana & Pop bought matching outfits for the 6 youngest girls. Hope they still fit them in 3 months. We then took the crock pots to Mom's and to show her the dresses and check on her elbow. Elbow is great and looks good (bad bruising about it). But she notices on one of the dresses a stain. Yep, leave it up to Mimi to notice a small minute stain. So, Tony & me head back to the "mall area" at noon time to exchange the dress. Simple enough though. Then we head back to Lone Oak and go to Super Valu to get ready for the (shhhhhhhh) SNOW! Yipee! Grab $200 worth of food and pull out and I remember that I forgot to get garlic bread and the hamburger meat for the spaghetti I'm gonna cook. We turn around and my sweet, lovely, special, great husband goes back into the grocery and gets those 2 things for us. We get home and unload the groceries. I put them away, sort our dirty clothes and then help Jeremy with the Christmas deco breakdown. He just left about 1/2 hour ago and I sat down finally. But I am in a very good mood today. Accomplished alot today and did you hear................it's gonna SNOW!
Tony applied for school bus driver job today. In the process of this, he called Waterway Ag and for the first time was able to talk to one of the owners and express some of the truths of what really happened when he ended up without a job 3 years ago with them. Felt really, really good for Tony & me to finally get some of that off our chests. Hell yeah!!
Gonna play on FB now.
