Yesterday was one of the most productive days at home I’ve had in… I don’t know, probably in years. It was great, and it ended with me falling asleep on the couch next to Peanut. Christmas tree lit, Miracle on 34th Street on in the background. It was good stuff.

I never believed in Santa, but that is one great Santa.
And now? Well, now our house is more put together than it has been for months (think: no holes in the floor, no bare stairs, the tools in the living room have decreased from about two dozen to half a dozen), and all of the remaining party prep for Sunday is the most fun stuff–making deviled eggs and such. Yay for picking foods we can make a few hours before people get to the house. Yay for the fun part!
