Home is where the heart is.

HOLY FUCK. The weekend comes to a screeching halt. It freaking *flew* by.

We saw two movies (Blood Diamond....violent but very thought provoking, very good and very well done and The Holiday....super cute, Cameron Diaz wears fuzzies and looks super snuggy but hot the entire movie, Jude Law is his usual epitome of hotness and the others compliment the movie well, very sweet.

Toured the preschool we enrolled LM in, he will start in January. Woo Hoo!!!! He is so incredibly ready and is stoked to have 'friends' of his own. I'm super excited for him.

Attended my mother's 'Holiday Tea'/ 60th birthday party (shhhhh.....) where I was the only one in the room under fifty. Let me tell you how guilty and retarded I felt discussing with my sister only the day before, how 'old' I felt being so close to 35...my 'official' mid thirties.....LOL. Yes. I suck. Attendees included four of her friends whom she'd been roommates with in college (isn't that amazing to have friends, to KNOW people you are still close to forty years later?!?!), her best friend BC (Before Children ;) whom is normally fairly snarky and opinionated (yet this time we got along amazingly well), and teacher friends (have I mentioned my mother is a retired Lang Arts teacher, turned substitute???). We played games. I was the suckiest at one game containing 'tea phrases' (has anyone heard of falling 'ass over tea kettle?!?!) yet the best at 'tea party etiquette'...who knew all those tea parties I throw for my children and sit through at my mom's house would pay off! LMAO!

Enjoyed a divine dinner at one of my favorite restaurants, Carraba's. Yummmmm!

Finally playlisted my iPod. MOMD is a huge rock (hard rock) freak fan. *ahem* But also had a ton of 'other' songs'. And had WAY more songs downloaded than I could ever fathom, lol. It was fun to finally go through them all. And now instead of my previous 28 some songs (snort!), I have like 500.....I know....*GASP*

Got a bunch of Christmas shopping done, or at least close to done. I'm feeling way less stressed about Christmas coming in exactly two weeks. THAT feels good.

Picked up the kids, who where excited, happy and I am stoked to report, seemed well adjusted. This is possibly *the* smoothest transition since AH was able to see the kiddos again since the 'blow up'. You just have no....NO idea how happy this makes my heart. Rock on people. Life is going to be ok. You know? :)

And while I felt like I was on the brink of tears the entire weekend. I survived. I did it. [sigh] HUGE accomplishment on my part, I'm telling you...

Ok so, I have several *all time favorite* Christmas songs. I will start counting them down as we progress towards Christmas. The first I'll start with, I absolutely *love*. It rocks. ~*~*~*fingers crossed~*~*~*~ it works properly.



Man. I really had very little time to like sit and THINK this wkend....so I didn't get my intro of MOMD written out. I will try, I promise. Continue to sit on the edge of your seats! LOL...
