WHO HAS THE CHRISTMAS CHEER NOW?


This morning I woke up early having a major panic attack. I was sweating and my heart was racing and I was really freaking out. I was freaking out because there is only 9 days till Christmas, which the kids keep drilling into my head every damn day and telling me I need to get with it, and I have not put one single decoration up, I have not even bought one present for my kids.

So here I am at 6:00am (before getting ready for work) digging out Christmas stuff and putting it around the house. I had this magical idea that I would get it all done in an hour, before I had to get in the shower and get my butt ready for work, and once the kids got up they would be all like "wow mom you're so cool".  I dug and dug and dug for stuff we have burried under monds of other stuff and managed to get a little bit out and up but the kids were totally unfazed by all my hard work. While they were unfazed I was all like shit I just rocked it and in an hours time and personaly I think the house looks pretty damn good.

I dropped all the kids off at school and was heading to Starbucks to grab a coffee before work when all of a suden my car just kinda pulled me into Walgreens were I promtly bought $100 in lights and other crap, we really didn't need, and two really cool 4 foot pre-lite trees to put outside by my front doors.

Now let my kids tell me I'm not rockin 'the Chirstmas spitit, because if they do then hell maybe there just won't be any presents under the tree for them, which would totally help with my anexity about what to get them and if I have enough money or not, but as of today this momma is totally digging the Christmas cheer now....fa la la la la la la la!

It was SO hard for me to get into this year. The only thing that motivated me is I'm hosting a shower this Sunday and I felt like I needed to have a tree up:) I'm hosting a giveaway on my blog if you want to check it out. Merry Christmas!
