It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
We have been busy putting out our Christmas decorations the past 2 days. I am hoping we can finish up all the loose ends today....but it is raining so the outside stuff will have to wait. I will share some pictures this week.

What Part of Thanksgiving Are You?
You Are Mashed Potatoes
Ordinary, comforting, and more than a little predictableYou're the glue that holds everyone together.

What a week!
I have been so sick all week. At first I thought it was a cold....but now I am thinking maybe it was the flu. I did get my flu shot several weeks ago.
Anyway....I am hosting Thanksgiving and have done NOTHING to get ready yet. YIKES!!!!!
So hopefully today I will have some energy to get a move on. The kids and DH will be helping too!!!!

Feeling a bit like my old self
I am happy that the funk seems to be lifting and I feel more like myself this weekend than I have in a really long time.
I have gottens lots of cleaning and organizing done. Even working on my menu for Thanksgiving. I will share with you when I get it finalized.
I won't have much time around the house to get things done this week..it is a busy one again.

Busy Week
Oh my it has been a full week of activities. I am looking forward to the weekend, even though we have quite a bit on the agenda.
My blogging has been kinda pathetic...I just don't have anything I feel is worth writing about.....what do you all do when this happens? Give a new blogger some tips.

FUNK
I am in a funk and can't seem to shake it.
I know that I have much to be grateful for in my life.
So hopefully it passes soon and I will back.
Do you ever get in a funk? How do you pull yourself out?
