Yes, we have two committee weeks in a row and if we are being honest, the late days are only M-W. Thursday they usually end early and no members do things on Friday. Anywho, let’s go back.

Hmm, I guess on Friday, we didn’t do too awful much because it was raining. And it rained for a million years – I mean – days. Elliot went to a friend’s house and we watched our first Christmas movie, Vacation, of course. Didn’t do much of anything else. I needed to relax. On Saturday, Ash and Dakota got up and went to the 5 mile challenge, which we’d gotten an email about the night before from the race director, who said he would not cancel even in rain. Well, they canceled. Because the rain was just that bad. Well, that and lightning. So aside from Dakota’s soccer practice and the city’s Winterfest being canceled (which she was going to perform in) we only had our meeting up at Deep with friends for a birthday. So that was basically all we did that day. Had some beer and food there then came home to chill.

My stupid ass thought it would be fun to give it another go on my kids’ hoverboard and I fell smack on my ass. It hurt too, and still hurts. I bruised my backside up real good. Sunday was pretty rough getting up but I don’t think anything is broken or fractured; Dr. Internet says that alone would make it hurt to sit but for the most part, that’s not bad. It’s mostly bending over and whatnot. I managed to get a lot done Sunday though: more house decorating for Christmas, laundry, errands with Dakota and later, with Isaac. I was pretty proud of myself, to be honest. I did also have to dump a lot of water from the pool because the deluge was pretty significant. Hopefully we won’t see anymore rain this week; I’m over it.

Have a lot to get done these next few weeks but at least today, I am feeling motivated and capable. But we shall see!

I promise to share some actual Christmas music that I like at some point but for today, this song is stuck in my head.
