- http://twitpic.com/w1w1l – It's foggy today. Happy foggy new year! #
- is enjoying forbidden food 2day. Diet starts 2morrow. 1st & most important new year's resolution: drop AT LEAST 10 lbs. 15 would be better. #
- Daughter & I ran errands. Covered about 5-7 mi. Daughter counted 175 cars driving in fog w/o headlights. Don't they know we can't see them? #
- is looking for either a crochet pattern or a Bond Ultimate Sweater Machine pattern for a Snuggie-like thingie. I think I found one! #
- is frustrated. That hard drive I mentioned I can't access that has all my pictures? It also has all my writing. I CAN'T WRITE TONIGHT. #
- will instead mix a Kahlua & Cream & begin taking down Christmas decorations. Since I don't go out 4 New Year's anymore, that's my tradition. #

- Prybar located. Kids not happy. Sometimes being a mom is really cool. >:-/ #

- got sleeted on coming home from Hap Ki Do. #
- can't access the drive that has all my pictures on it. How am I supposed to process pictures when I can't access the drive w/the pictures? #

The Christmas Hangover
by Lynn Daniels on Monday, December 28, 2009 at 2:07 pm
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! We had a nice one here on the homestead: the kids got enough of their lists to keep them happy, but not so much they’re even more spoiled than before. SoundGuy was actually surprised by some of his gifts — quite the monumental feat. My mom — who flew in for the holiday — got some stuff with more to come when she gets back home, and she got calls from both my siblings. And I got my Sony eReader, the one thing I’d really been wanting. Other gifts, too, but the eReader was the biggie.So I’ve been converting the ebooks I already have and downloading new ones while watching season one of Castle on the TV upstairs. The kids have been going to town on the new family Wii downstairs. SoundGuy’s outside taking advantage of a couple days off work and cleaning the yard up with one of his new toys. My mother’s following LittleDude around when he’s moving, or doing her thing in her room when he’s not. What’s not getting done is the housework.
It’s the Christmas Hangover. My kids forget how to clean up after themselves, or maybe they expect Santa’s elves to return and clean up for them. Actually, I wouldn’t mind that, myself. A few gifts still remain in the library, which becomes the Christmas tree room during the season, waiting to be taken up to their new owners’ rooms to be put away. My kitchen counter & dining table have become resident dumping grounds again (and I had just managed to get them clean!). And I just look around the house at all the mess and think I don’t wanna.
‘Tis the season.
This year I have the added bonus of my mother being here, telling me how wonderful my house would be if I would just… Subtle, yes? Except she never seems to finish the sentence; I guess she figures I can do that part adequately on my own. She’s right. I can.
Maybe it’s just because the kids are out of school and home. Maybe it’s because we have an out-of-town visitor. Maybe it’s because I just plain don’t wanna. Regardless of the reason, it’s part of my stress of the holiday season, and the reason I look forward to it being over.
Wow, this post has really become a downer! I didn’t mean it to be; we really have had a wonderful Christmas. Would it surprise you to hear it’s not my favorite holiday, though? Didn’t think so.
I hope you have an amazing new year with wonderful things on the horizon!
To end this post on a higher note, I leave you with dancing bananas.

WOO HOO!
