I'm so happy to have my computer back.
Today was our last play practice for Auntie M's Christmas play. This has been a very different kind of play and experience for me. It's been fun. I'm not nearly as stressed out as I was last time, but there are a few things that I'm just not sure how they will come together for the play next week. They may not, and that is OK.
I didn't want to involve kids younger than six, but instead I ended up with two 4 year olds. They, actually, are doing great. Although one of these cute 4 year olds was picking his nose on stage today. I laughed. It's amusing to see a shepherd digging for gold.
Next Saturday morning is the big show. I'm excited for it. It will be a lot of fun. The play is short, maybe 25 minutes long, and half of that time is singing Christmas carols. I'll be glad when it is done. Since we are moving in three weeks, not having my Saturday mornings free to work on things has been difficult. I really need to hold a yard sale. I could just take all the stuff to the local Goodwill, but it would be nice to try and make a little money first. Moving is so expensive. Anything extra I can get will help.
This next week will be crazy! Not bad, just busy. I bought paint so I can start touching up the walls in the house. I'll work on painting on Monday. I'm NOT doing that while all the kids are in the house.
Well, I'm just kind of rambling. I'll stop that for now. There is a lot to work on....
I decided not to pull out all the Christmas decorations this year, but I did pull out the tree and put lights on it and the star on top. That is probably all we'll do with the tree, but it sure is pretty to have my little tree with the blue lights on it. I love Christmas lights.
Just a funny thing: Last night I made my oldest son laugh while he had three saltine crackers in his mouth. Yeah, there was a lot of cracker pieces to clean up, but it sure was funny.

I hope you are able to get everything done that you need to do before the move - since you will be doing it all on your own again. At least you're not trying to sell a house this time! Goodness. Good luck with the play!
Good luck!!! It sounds like you're in good shape (the last week is when the most stuff comes together, usually the last day, in fact!) And speaking of saltines, I just baked the best and easiest Christmas goodies using them. More to follow!

Thanks Susan and Barbara. The play is going to be great. I was counting on the Hubby to help me set up on Saturday with the play, but he will be gone! That's OK, I can do it!
Barbara, can't wait for your next recipe! They are always so good.
