Maybe it is the massive lack of sleep or the exhausting stress of buying a house, but I am not feeling the spirit of Christmas. We have made out Jason's List and I am sure that "Santa" has all those packages hidden under beds, at the top of the closets, and under the locked kitchen sink cupboard. But other than that, I am empty. Out of Fuel. Zilch. Zero. Grinch.
We do not have the tree up and it is December 13. It is usually up before the 1st of December. There are no lights on the house, Jacques usually has those up pretty early too. Tonight on the way to Target, on the side of the road, they were selling fresh mistletoe. I wanted to stop, but again, no point in hanging yet. Maybe later I can get some. I have never had any before, fresh or fake. And never in my very own home. I have a ton of Christmas to do crafts, none of which are started. It will most likely be turned in to next years list of to dos.
Basically, I feel horrible for the kids, mainly Jason. The kid needs a tree up. Some decor wouldn't hurt either and some snow..
This upcoming week will be super full with handymen, cable guys, movers, kids, a husband. Plus a trip to Charlotte, 2 Christmas parties to attend, 2 days of speech, 1 birthday, a school program and lots of cleaning in both houses. We need to be 100% out of this house to turn over the keys on Wednesday.

LO FLO,
You will be all Christmassy by next weekend when all has been moved. You are a great mother and those kids will have a ball once it is up, not mattering how long it has been up. Wish you were closer cuz Shannon is having the girls over tomorrow to bake Christmas cookies, no bakes, sugar, choco chip, and more. Miss you all and you are doing great for no sleep.
LOVE LEWIS
