Happy Monday!

I’m feeling pretty good today! (Ignoring the drippy nose, pfft!) And I’m off to a good start – I remembered to program the coffee maker last night, which helped motivate me to get out of bed on time, and I made cheese muffins before getting the kids up, yum. Dishes are caught up, we’ve listened to the Bible, laundry has been started, kitchen is in acceptable shape, I’ve done 41 minutes on the Wii Fit already, and helped one customer on the phone. We also have stir fry leftovers for lunch, so I don’t even have to think about cooking until tonight.

Most of the inside Christmas decorations have been put up, and the yard stuff won’t take long. Mick rebelled this year and didn’t put lights on the house – I can’t say that I blame him, I didn’t want to fool with that, either. It was a busy month with a lot of illness, that that was just one thing that was a relief to let go. So I spent half an hour with help from the kids and put some lights on PVC over our other yard stuff. That won’t take long to put away, either. :)

We finally “scored” a great Christmas tree from Hobby Lobby! You know how they mark stuff down after the holidays, and it keeps getting lower and lower as time goes by? For YEARS, we have tried to get one of their trees at a good discount, and keep finding out that we waited too long and they ran out. Well, this year, we got one at 50% off. It’s gorgeous, pre-lit, with pine cones and berries. I *almost* can’t wait until next Christmas. (Just kidding!)

I’m also really happy today because I think I’m totally through feeling icky from chemo – and that was my LAST treatment! Radiation is next, and I have an appointment tomorrow to get the scanning and modeling stuff done.
