NOW is anyone ready to get behind my idea to postpone Christmas until the 30th? We'd combine Christmas and the New Year into one long holiday and we'd buy ourselves a little more time to actually enjoy the season.
Also, I think winter break for the kids should only be 1 week. I think 2 weeks is excessive, bordering on inhumane.
Today Heidi Louise (my Dachshund) ate every bit of an unassembled gingerbread house, including half of the box. I was uber pissed because I had to clean it up, and because she looks like a snake who ate a goat, and is grunting like a hog with every breath which is irritating, but I will admit I am kind of grateful for the excuse not to do the gingerbread house. It's fun and all, but I've got a long list of things I want to do still and that one was sort of near the bottom.
I have to go back to baking (read: eating) cookies. It was fun for about 30 seconds. Now I'm just tired (read: full).

We did Christmas yesterday since we are heading skiing on the big day. I am mailing Christmas cards which I guess now are New Year's cards tomorrow. Ridiculousness-there is never enough time.
Yeah, this two week vacation is for the birds. It isn't so bad when there are a few more days on THIS side of Christmas, but after Tuesday, it is like eternity before the kids go back. Must make a note to refill the Prozac tomorrow...
2 weeks! ha! My son gets a freaking MONTH off of preschool. WTF is up with that??? AND I have to pay for the month!??!!
Oh, and I'm all for postponing Xmas. I hope you are feeling better!
Is anyone else hoping that Heidi Louise will shit out an assembled gingerbread house? That's a Christmas Miracle I'd pay to see ;)!
Merry Christmas to The Ashleys!!
I'm on board with the plan, if we could extend it by one more day. I can't believe I go through all this freakin' work for one measly day. Christmas needs to be two days.
