I have reached that point in the pre-Christmas season where I feel like I’m going nuts. Too much to do! Not enough time!
The good news is that Eldest Son made it home yesterday without incident. His flight was delayed, but not for several hours like it was last year. I made homemade turkin soup last night with my mom’s Thanksgiving carcass, which I’ve had in the deep freeze. E.S. loves turkin soup. That’s soup made from turkey bones, whatever turkey meat falls off the bones while you’re making the broth, then, if you don’t have enough meat, you add cooked chicken breast. Turkey + Chicken = Turkin Soup. And I make a mean turkin soup, if I do say so myself.
We’ll have it again after Christmas, too. With a new dead turkey body. Um, carcass.
Anyway, I’ll still be hanging around the blog (although not every day), because I have some stuff coming up that I don’t want you to miss. I might not post tomorrow (but then again I might…), but drop by Friday, because my group blog, Nobody Writes It Better, is holding a contest from Dec. 18th – Dec. 24th and I’ll announce all the details here when I know them. Which will be sometime on Friday.
I’m also blogging at Nobody Writes It Better on Christmas Eve! Don’t ask me how I get these dates when I’m one of the two blog schedulers. Let’s just say I don’t believe in fiddling with my dates at the expense of another member’s. Because I am jolly! That’s why.
I have no idea what I’ll blog about. Rudolph seems a fair bet, but you’ll have to wait until Dec. 24th to find out why.
Is anyone else getting caught up in crazy Christmas preparations?
