I am back, albeit not willing, but back from a self induced coma. I had grand visions last Tuesday when I bid farewell to my gold fish Flounder, locked my office door, and headed out for 5 glorious days of checking off many things on my to-do list. Some of those things included:
- Cook the best Thanksgiving feast ever, right down to the delicate desserts
- Decorate the house for Christmas, THE entire house….
- Make fudge and fruitcake cookies
- Have all the dogs bathe and groomed
- Make a budget
- Organize school stuff
- Catch up on blogging and make a Christmas blog design
- Begin Christmas shopping
That was my list…I really don’t think that any bullet point was totally finished. Sad, kind of, but not really. This is how my 5 days played out…
Wednesday, went grocery shopping, came home took a nap. Wednesday evening looked at recipes and then decided that we didn’t need to eat early so watched TV and went to bed.
Thursday I managed to make a sizeable feast, but not all the delicate desserts, but we were to full to noticed. Then I took a nap, watched TV and went to bed.
Friday I didn’t do the usual Black Friday 3am bargain hunting, I slept in instead. Most of the day I goofed off, watched TV, took a nap and was then sound asleep and the bed by 8pm.
(Are you seeing a pattern take form here?)
Saturday, I slept till 9am, got up cooked breakfast and was back in the bed by 10:30 for a mid morning nap….that lasted until my husband woke me up…that afternoon. Then I goofed off and watched TV. We did make an attempt to go to town late that evening, but it didn’t work out, so I went to bed early!
Sunday, woke up really refreshed, got dressed and ready for church, came home ate lunch and took a NAP!
Yea, I know, I am pathetic! I got nothing done I wanted to get done…but it was glorious!
Yesterday was hard trying to get back into the swing of things, so when I finally arrived home after 7-ish, I had my son cook me a grilled cheese sandwich because I was too worn out to turn the stove on and fell asleep watching TV.
Today, I am focused getting a life and checking back into reality! I am fully rested, so there is no excuse! I hope your Thanksgiving weekend was as glorious one as well! Now I am off to catch up in blog world!

I Love that routine!
I refused to let myself take any naps - had to get back on to CST time. By Sunday jetlag had hit hard! Last night I finally slept through the night so I hope I'm over the hump. Glad you go some rest though!!
Sometime the body takes what we don't let it have....sleep!
Glad you got caught back up on yours.
Blessings
