Christmas hangover.

Posted on by David Maxwell

We all slept in a little bit this morning, which was nice. After breakfast I went to Lowe’s and Aldi for a few things. We spent the rest of the morning playing with new toys and relaxing around the house. This afternoon we went to a playground in Spring Hill for a bit. I kind of tried to nap after that, but was unable to. Before dinner I loaded up my car to prepare for my trip to the Mountain later. Luke was pretty well behaved this evening and is going through his bed time routine with Liz now.

Merry Christmas.

I was up until about two this morning doing stuff on the computer. Luke came to our room early and snuggled with us until about 6:30. Then we opened stockings, played some, ate waffles, opened presents, talked with Liz’s parents, played some more, talked with Liz’s younger brother, went to church with my parents, had lunch at Lauren’s house, and came home. It was a pretty tiring day, but Luke enjoyed it. He did pretty well for himself in the present department. Tonight he was a handful though, probably just over tired and over stimulated.

Christmas Eve.

We had a busy day. This morning I went to TJ Maxx and Bargain Hunt, then by the vet’s to get something for Lilly. After breakfast Luke and I changed out a couple of smoke alarms and did a few other little projects. That took most of the day, along with some playing. We also went to Target and Home Depot for a few things. Overall it was a pretty good day. Luke was well behaved and enjoyed helping me work on stuff. He is getting excited for Christmas.

Same work, new location.

Luke slept in a little later than usual this morning, which was nice. After breakfast I took trash to the dump and then we started working on some small projects around the house. Those included hanging pictures, bolting in shelves, caulking, repairing drywall, and more. Luke enjoyed helping. This afternoon we went to Lowe’s and a few car dealerships to browse for trucks. This evening was pretty normal. Luke got a little wild but went to sleep without fuss because he was so tired. I just returned from a miserable trip to Kroger. Unfortunately they were all out of egg nog.

Last day of the work week.

I arrived at the job site earlier than usual this morning and unloaded tools and materials. I cleaned the house and back porch, installed cabinet knobs, put in some cedar trim, and made a couple of trips to the hardware store to get some stuff for the electricians. I organized the storage unit a bit, then did a little office work back at the cottage. Finally I packed up and drove home. Luke was waiting for me and we played a bit before dinner. After dinner he went through his bedtime routine. Now I am messing around on the computer while Liz goes to the grocery store.
