My Weekend 12/18/16

I finally dragged out the Christmas decorations yesterday and did my part of the decorating. I brought the tree, tree lights, and tree decorations out but haven't done anything with them. We're waiting for hubby to be off work.... today is his last day. But I did call him at work today, frustrated that my older daughter seems to have stuff all over the house. She just doesn't clean up after herself. I cleared off the coffee table where she seems to have taken up residence. When I came down today she had her feet up on it crumpling up my Christmas runner. Now she, of course, is complaining that she's tired and will for the next 3 days when she is working. I called hubby and told him my frustrations, and there's car issues too as I seem to be filling them up and others driving them, and I even mentioned dealing with him too. I honestly don't know why I even called him. Things haven't been that great with him the last few days... mainly because he has been working days and disappears for bed around 9pm without saying goodnight... unless I chase him down. I found my Christmas stocking. I feel pretty dumb as it was actually packed in the box with the other stockings (which I had left out waiting for mine to reappear). My younger daughter has been mostly absent. When she reappeared this afternoon she came down to the basement freezer, then I smelled food cooking. It smelled good. I was going to go check and see what was up when she came down with a plate in hand for me - chicken nuggets, rice and mixed vegetables. She brought such a smile to my face. That one is a keeper! Now I am binging on Fuller House on Netflix. I can't remember which episode I'm on now... 6 or 7. I am almost feeling 100% after my first week of exercise. The live stream resumes tomorrow. I'm thinking of doing a couple of exercises today just to prepare myself. I have my Christmas menus written out. Now all I have to do is finish the grocery shopping, a couple of stocking stuffers, and wrapping everything. I guess I'm all caught up now. I hope the next week runs smoothly. Gingerbread house is from a couple of years ago.
