Happy Homemaker 2025-12-22

Good morning

On vacation since Friday night (but did 1 hour of telework today).  Will go back to work on the 6th or the 7th (undecided yet)

Friday dh picked up Anne-E before lunch (ddil had not sent her to daycare because Anne-E wanted to stay home), then Xavier at school and got him to his haircut appointment.  Both kids stayed the night.

Saturday grandkids stayed until 4:30 when parents picked them up for a work party of ds' at a commercial center with rides and games.

Sunday was going to Xavier's 1st hockey game, followed by housechores (main floor) while dh was at ds' to help finish the kitchen renovations.  Ds, ddil and grandkids came for supper (we ordered Thai) , grandkids stayed the night.

Today grandkids will be here until after supper, had lots to do but...  did vac basement and picked up a bit (have found my declutter hot-spot for 2026... basement LR!!!!).  DH took them ice-skating outside this afternoon.

Guess we will be having a white Christmas this year... got rain last week but still snow on the ground and some in the forecast for tomorrow.  Hoping roads will be ok as we should leave for dd's in the afternoon.

Looking around the house

Wanted everything to be done before we left but with grandkids here most of the time, not happening.

Thinking and pondering

Hoping all goes well during the holidays.  we do not need family drama.  
Waiting for biopsy results.  Having some other weird health problems, hoping all goes away by itself.
