I was up late last night (midnight-ish) sorting a 32 gallon tote of paper clutter. A good chunk of it went in the trash and the other has been fairly well sorted. I have a little bit more to do of that today but otherwise, that is DONE! Thank goodness as it has been sitting here staring at me for far too long! I paid bills this morning and dissected a child care grant so it will best meet our needs for $2015. It's hard to believe that as of August, we no longer will have a need for day care!

My plan of action for the rest of the day includes doing up the dishes, cleaning up my counter top and then cleaning off the lip over my sink. I have 4 large totes of Christmas decorations sitting in my kitchen and one thing I love to do is put up the nativity sets. One goes in the kitchen and the other in the living room on top of the piano. Oh the piano. I'm going to have to do some cleaning and moving of stuff there as well if I want to put the nativity set there!!! The lights are on the tree but it's been crazy busy here and we haven't gotten the ornaments up yet...well...there are 4 ornaments on the tree. Jeremiah picked out 3 a few weeks ago at a craft store and then he was given a special early gift of an ornament of one of his favorite cartoon characters to hang on the tree. I kind of like the tree with just the lights but I know I will love it just as much with the ornaments which will be fun for all of us to do! However...the ornaments will wait until the weekend when we are all home and can do it together.
    Jeremiah is still not 100% and has a recheck at the doctor's office tomorrow. I won't be surprised if they run another set of antibiotics and steroids.

Stay warm everybody!
