December 22, 2007

Well I'm 42 now. 42!! How did this happen? I'm a mother to child approaching 20, one almost 17 and then my baby Megan just turned 6 already. Before I know it I'll be 52 and she'll be 16. Everyone always seems so shocked to find out I have James and that I was 22 when he was born - I hope that continues or poor Megan will be so embarrassed to be seen with me. Who am I kidding, she will anyway, after all I'm her mom and a certified doofus.
Christmas is but a few days away and still no tree up. This is not my fault it's Ralph's (that's my story and I'm sticking to it) He rearranged the garage and I couldn't find any of the Decorations. Plans are to put it up tonight. So right now I should be cleaning house. Which obviously I'm not doing. But I promise to start in a minute.
Ralph is at work, James is on the computer, Andrew and his girlfriend are in the other room. I'm listening to some Christmas music to get me in the mood. It's Il Divo. I chose it because the first track is Oh Holy Night and the 3rd is Ava Maria. And they do them right-- they don't go messing with them. The two most beautiful songs in the world do not need embellishments IMO and they don't do that. I wish I'd found this before last night.
Got the invitation to Jacob's wedding in Houston and I'm hoping I can find a way to go. We'll see. Would love to go and be with family - even better if we all could go but the odds of that are slim to none. Ralph has to go to OK right after it so I doubt he can go. Megan and Andrew have school and we'll see where and what James is doing - I can't begin to guess.
