The day was gorgeous today in the mid 70's and hot sun. The windows are all still open it is still warm. Tomorrow will be much cooler.

Well I got busy very early today and decided not to go out shopping and just hunkered down on the housework. By noon all was finished except laundry. Mike asked what I had to do and when I said I had to wash the kitchen floor he didn't say anything just got up and went out and scrubbed it for me. What a guy. :loveya He is not generally good with the houswork but he knows I have been feeling tired lately and I had scrubbed bathrooms and everything else. He also made dinner! It has taken five years but he is finally getting there and understands my need to keep things just so! :couple

So I had a relaxing day creating Christmas shopping lists for the kids. I try to get them finished first and then do everyone else. I also did some online hunting to find the best prices on what the kids want. I'm trying to be more organized this year. It is a bit easier now that the kids are older and know what they want. I am also armed with a list of DVD's they want. This week I will go to the Dollar store and stock up on my boxes and wrapping paper. To make it easier we wrap each child's gifts in only one type of paper, and each child a different paper. So much easier on Christmas morning. :grin

Plus Kaya's birthday is the day after Thanksgiving so I have to get that bought and sent. And a little something for each of the kids to open also.

I was looking at Mother's rings for Audra. Well two of the Boys were born in March and then one in November and Kiarra in May. I moved the stones this way and that, and it still wasn't a very pretty ring with those colors so now I'm undecided.

I have to decide about when I'm going home too so that decision will be made in the next two days.

A very productive day around here for sure. The Broncos took another spanking today OMG that team is a mess. But my team the Patriots won to make up for that!

I even took a short nap! Just sitting here trying to decide when to go to Boston, drinking an iced coffee.


So what was your day like.......

Quite day here. Weather was beautiful tho. Now I'm watching the Cowboys - so far so good but very early yet. They do look like they'll have a good team this year.

This year was the one year anniversary of my husband's death so really haven't felt like doing much.

Don't have to work until Tuesday night (I work 5p to 1a and love it) so will try to get in gear and get things done tomorrow. Laundry and all that stuff that needs to be done.

Hope everyone has a great week.

I'm sorry Sue. Those anniversaries can be very difficult. I still get very upset. Friday was the 2nd anniversary of my daughter losing the baby and she has been a mess this week. Big Hugs to you.
