So right now I should be making 4000 sausage balls. Not really 4000. But enough for a party tonight plus to freeze some to have Christmas morning. I'm also supposed to be writing my autobiography for our next homestudy. I told this to a friend today and she said "oh that's so cool. to really think about your life like that." I laughed. Cool. Really? I love having a grand old time talking with friends, going deep, etc... But writing, about my own life. Nope, not cool. Then I read her the 7 "cool" questions that are each about 10 questions wrapped into one, and she laughed. Agreed. Not cool. But I will prevail! I work best under pressure. Like studying for a test or reading a book the night before it's due. I will get this done. Just not before 3:00 pm today. I could also be folding laundry. But I did enough of that yesterday for an entire week. So I'm not too disturbed if the sheets and towels are wrinkled. They can wait. At least they aren't sitting mildewed in my washer. Just wrinkly in my dryer.
On another note, we went to the McWane Center this morning with the rest of Birmingham. That's probably why I'm now procrastinating. I just want to be online reading blogs, having "adult" interaction, ha! But we actually had a great time. It's so nice that Maxwell is now old enough to run around and play without me following his every move. Which is good, because I SERIOUSLY have to follow Elliott's EVERY move! Charles and I are talking all the time now about what great ages the boys are. We are constantly laughing at Elliott, age almost 2, because he's just really cute and funny. Then we love Maxwell's age, 4, because he is just really growing up! This is the first Christmas ever that will actually be "easy" with kids and we are so excited! No morning naps, no bottles, everyone can eat everything and play like crazy...
Did I really just write this entire monologue of rambling? Yep. Maybe I am in the writing mood, and should get crackin' on question #4. Or roll out some sausage balls. Or maybe I'll just go watch Dino Dan with Maxwell.
Oh dear, you just gave me terrifying flashbacks of the autobiographies and discussion questions----aaaahhh!!!!! I HATED that!
ReplyDeleteAs for sausage balls, YUM, go ahead and roll out 4000. you won't have room in your freezer, but I'll take them off your hands! Merry Christmas!
