I am done
with Christmas finally. NO more Christmas for at least another 300+ days. I have about 8000000 things to return to Kohls as soon as the return rush dies down and I can not stress this enough people for the sake of yourselves and all living things, do not deviate from the list! I can't tell you how many people today at work complaining about "my husband got me a blender, and i told my kids grandpa not to get the purple power ranger" etc....I think I agree with Andrea, get everyone you know a gift card and save the hassle. Its also possible that after 4 christmases i am all happied out and feel drained.
We have a ROOM full of stuff down here that I dont have room for yet (kids stuff + Laundry) and have to somehow figure out where to put everything...we have an abundance of new socks and underwear (for the kids) and I think my mom feels sorry for me because this is 2 years running where she gets me new washcloths...which means I now own 300 washcloths, a majority of them scummy from endless wiping of dirty hands/faces/tables and kitty puke.
I guess I am just tired which makes this whole rant sound bitchy in the x-treme...blah...we did have the best time yesterday at Toni's house...Mya went mental over her spiderman and has talked of nothing since...
I am also sad because I didnt get to spend as much time with Ryan as I had hoped (damn that flu!), and that pony I wanted for the past 30 christmases did not arrive under the tree, I shake my fist at you santa...!
If you are wondering what this lovely picture is...it is #1 in "where is laura" recap...she is on Lamu Island in Africa..its beautiful.

anyways
It blows my mind that the Pedens are not in San Antonio..wonderful...and Dylan is somewhere in San Diego?? sigh...its almost impossible to keep up with everything in Dylan's life...specially since he is like the wind...god knows where it is, god knows when it will show up again, and god knows its da bomb when its around...also I'm adding this pic of Ryan and Andrea:
because Andrea looks durn cute (and Ryan has hair?!)...
because Andrea looks durn cute (and Ryan has hair?!)...The Christmas recap: Christmas #2 is over with (Vitucci/Poytinger/Anderson Christmas)...my kids went wacko..i got to see all my cousins (except Peter...he doesnt do crowds) and my cousin Matt (happy birthday..not to be confused with my brother matt) is getting married (sometime in 2008)...my uncle Mike and cousin mike (not to be confused with my dad mike) got a new black lab puppy and they (and lisa and marina) couldnt stay long, had to get back to IL to let him/her/it? out of its kennel to peepee..
My Aunt Colleen's grandma had a stroke about 3 min before they left Cedarburg for our house so she wasnt there...hope grandma is OK Colleen!
Tomorrow is Christmas #3...Baumer Christmas...around 1pm...I am hoping the kids arent too wako from lack of nap tomorrow...
Today we took kids to their 1st (well for the girls techinically 2nd, but at 8 weeks old I dont think they remember Intolerable Cruelty quite well) movie...we all saw Charlotte's Web...that effing movie always makes me cry...try explaining to your 2 year old why "momma sad?" and you are blubbering about the spider dying etc...oh hell...they were very well behaved and we had no problems...maybe we take the kids again...you know once we win the lottery since I think it was like 23$ for all of us...
Also today was a bit sad as seeing my Grandma (my last living Grandparent) was hard...Grandma is about 1 step away from assisted living since I think her Altzheimers is about at the tipping point...I guess she wasnt showering, or changing her clothes and she forgot to tell my aunt she had no toilet paper (at least this is what I gleaned from overhearing my aunt and mom talk)...its very sad since all her living brothers and sisters are just the same, or worse off...so as I said to my favorite aunt, and goddess mother...Thi s is what i have to look forward too huh?
Funny Christmas story...my mom is redoing her small bathroom and has taken up all the mirrors, light fixtures, and floor vent...my cousin Marina went in to use the bathroom..the floor vent is on the right hand side as you sit on the potty about ehhh 1 foot away from your feet...my cousin managed to drop her motorola razr down the floor vent...my mother is fishing this phone out with a plastic spoon and her arm as about 1/2 a dozen relatives look on..priceless..why didnt i grab the camera?
Mail me!
oh well what the hell
SO since its Christmas I was doing my calls out to Texas to say hi to Dan...I called his girlfriend (ex) Beth and she called back, informed me Dylan and her not together, Dylan living...somewhere...his parents moved to Dallas? and god knows what else?!?
