Ow, Anne!
Cornflake wreaths! I love those. Assuming they are the bright green ones sort of like rice krispie treats.
So, I only had lunch, but it was elaborate! And I cleaned up after! Next, food shopping with parents.
Don't I get a cookie?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ouch, Anne! Thumbs do bleed a lot. That latte sounds delish.
I slept for 11 hours last night and still don't feel like actually doing anything.

Yup, those are the cornflake wreaths I'm talking about. With redhots for decoration! ...we are eating a lot of the redhots on their own though. Because we had to get a big bag of them, see...

I am back in PJ making mode. I have 3 pairs completed. I have two more pair that needs the waist turned and threaded and hemmed, then I have 3 pairs that need another seam, plus waist and hem. I also have 2 gift bags stitched from remnants that need the tops hemmed and a pair of pants that need cut and hemmed. (and two that are complete) Essentially this is all of the sewing that needs to be done with brown thread. I am sewing by thread color because it annoys me so so re-thread/re-bobbin.
I also made quinoa, so that's hopeful.
I have a bitch of a headache though.

The status is NOT quo.
Burrell, I still have your two cold holding bag things (note the technical name). They've been in my freezer since you used them to bring ice cream years ago. We should meet up to chat, and I will bring them back!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I want to put more lights outside and make cookies and watch football and knit, but I slept until noon and now am inter webbing sitting on mac's bed with him and the dog (mac's request). so yeah, nothing getting done is way I expect for the day.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The kids decided they would wake up at 5am today and now are both screaming at the top of their lungs "I AM NOT TIRED! I DON'T NEED A NAP!"
If the three of us survive this week, it will be a fucking miracle.
On the plus side, it's weirdly 60F here in Brooklyn today, so we were able to go to the playground with no jackets on!

Punishingly Intricate
I'm feeling very lucky to be at my husband's parents in MI where I have zero responsibilities today other than to get dressed to go out to dinner in a few hours. I think we'll go to a movie tomorrow and, eventually, I'll have wrap presents but that's about it. Lazy!

I've been meaning to post this for a while, but here is a picture of Finn's first snowfall.

Nice camouflage!
