Wrapped up in a nutshell...The weekend I mean

So the weekend here was pretty uneventful. I got my present , but I will get to that in a minute.

First I want to ask a question. When the heck did the children of this bloody world lose all their Christmas magic?

Now Kissing spawn knows about Santa. But for God,s sake...Save the 5 year old....Please..
She went to see him Sunday, Santa that is. I wanted it to be a family affair. Kissing spawn refused to go, because for Heavens sake he saw him last year. Baby spawn, well I had The Husband wake her up, and lets just say she was in no mood for a big fat jolly elf. So Covert spy spawn spy was the only one who went. Now this little girl spent all day Saturday writing her own list. She would ask us how to spell everything, but my gosh she wrote her up good.

Before she left she was beaming...And she says " I am gonna tell Santa there is no such thing as reindeer"

Oh crap!

" don't tell him that, you will hurt his feelings"

" mom it makes no sense, plus this isn't even Santa, it is one of his helpers"

So now she is convinced Santa drives a car, because there was a car parked out front the little house..OK, I will go with that.

















So this is her, with the guy who is not Santa and does not have flying reindeer.


And here is little baby spawn, sometimes she is just way too cute to live in this house
















and now crap I can not forget to post the other spawn, or holy crap I will be showing favoritism now wouldn't I?
















That was him after his bath last night...He is all clean!






Ok, so momma got her present. I got a shiny new Ipod. Oh she is beautiful. She holds over 7,000 songs. I spent hours over the weekend downloading songs from my CD's.

So far I have got
Elton John: 7 cds
George Michael: 2 cds
Prince: 5 CD's
The Eagles: 2 CD's
Various 80's mixes: 4 CD's

I am not done yet......I still have lots more...Here is a picture of my new girl
































Oh and it plays videos too....Oh, love at first sight I tell ya.

I have a confession to make. I am a tub singer. Have been for years now. I take headphones and a rocking CD, and belt out tunes while I bathe. And since I have about 500 songs so far on my new girl (oh I named her Sheila) I put it on shuffle and let her rip.

The kids were in bed, so I decided to relax and enjoy myself. I told The Husband to grab me a towel from the drier in a bit . Well an hour past, and still no towel. Then The Husband walks in and says

" you no there are some folks here who are requesting you stop singing, they are trying to sleep"

" I am just waiting for my towel"

" I think your son is ready to knit you one"


Yes, momma gets no respect.
