Merry Christmas Eve Eve

It is Christmas eve eve and I am doing great. I have been making my candy today. The kids have been playing the Wii and watching TV. Gillian has her nose stuck in one of her many Warriors books. She is hooked on them and she just can not seem to get enough of them. I am okay with it because I love that she loves to read. Michael has his nose stuck in his DS right now. He thinks he is a "gamer" at the ripe old age of eight!!! I say more power to him!

Our friends are supposed to be over sometime today. They were supposed to come over last night, but I ended up at my Dr's office at 7:00 pm with a busted up hand. We bought new furniture and I wanted to move one of the old chairs into our bedroom so when DH came home I asked him to help me move it. So off we went down the hallway with this overstuffed armchair and as I was backing my way down, I slammed my hand into the doorknob of one of our linen closets. I slammed it so hard that I went to my knees in tears. I hadn't cried like that in a while. DH felt so guilty, he though he had pushed to hard. I explained that I thought I was pulling him so how could he have puched to hard. He was really afraid that I broke something so he insisted we go to the Dr. Anyway, they x-rayed it and found no broken bones. I do have some damaged nerves which make my little finger and the one next to it numb where it connects to my hand. My Dr. said that they should feel normal in about two or three weeks. I have a few cuts on it so I had to have a tetnus because I don't know when I had one last. Oh, it is my right hand which is not the best since I am right handed! Life goes on!

My sil and her son's girlfriend are coming over tomorrow to make candy and pies, so I will be in the kitchen again tomorrow. I love being in my kitchen especially when there are others with me having a great time. I am enjoying the heck out of these holidays. DH will come home early tomorrow and then we will have until Monday together how awesome is that!

I hope everyone of you is having as much fun as I am, minus the busted hand! :)

Merry Christmas eve eve!!

WOW! I can't believe it has been almost three months since I posted to my blog. School sure kept me busy this past semester. I am so glad it is done even if for only three weeks! I really did enjoy this semester even if it did wear me out. Enough about school.

The kids are doing great. They have this week left and then they will be on Christmas break too. Gillian keeps amazing me with her school work. She has even come round about going to a private school next year. I think having her little brother there with her helped seal the deal. She isn't as upset about it anymore.

Matthew and Chris came home over the Thanksgiving holidays and we all had a great time. Matthew just turned twenty-five years old last week. I cannot believe I have a twenty-five year old child. It truly does seem like I just had him.

Okay that is it for now. See you soon I hope. At least sooner than three months! :)
