Happy Homemaker 2024-12-23

Good morning and Merry Christmas to everyone this week!

The last busy week of the year at work. I did not go in to work Tuesday as I was wayyy too busy so got to work from home with no distractions (boss was ok with that). Yay vacations (will have to go read emails a few times but mostly done for 2024).  woot!woot!

Grandkids came over for supper one night this week.

Friday late-afternoon  muffler broke on the Rav4.. all is closed for Christmas... so dh tied it firmly and we will be going to dd's for Christmas eve like that.

Saturday dh made individual meat pies (I helped out) and I did a few household chores. Sunday dh made cabbage soup and I made 2 casserole of stuffed cabbage rolls. Soup and 1 casserole are in freezer to bring to dad's on the 31st.  A few more chores and got to take a small nap in the afternoon!  Supper was pizza with sil, bil and neighbors.

Did not sleep well and woke up with stomache ache, feeling a little better now but very tired.  Might nap with grandkids this afternoon.  DH wants to take Xavier skating for a bit this afternoon but it is very cold outside.

Looking around the house
