Day #4713 (Thu., Dec. 1, 2022) – Three Advent Calendars!
Today is the first day of the Advent Calendar openings! You can see the various presents under the tree in the photo to the right. We didn’t wrap them up nicely this year…kind of a “brown bag”. If the present is too big to fit into the Advent Calendar slot, we leave the number in the slot and this corresponds to the number on the present under the tree!
For Day #1 Bobby got a Roblox fireman and Katie got a shelf for her bedroom. We will wait till this evening to open Day #1 for Maple’s Advent Calendar as Ginger is here…
Both kids are home sick today! My wife and I are not feeling our best either. What in the world do we have now? Haven’t we had everything possible by now? Does this mean we will be Ironmen & Ironwomen when this is said and done?
This afternoon I went to Walmart to get some extra items for the Advent Calendars. I also picked up some extra items at the Dollar Tree as well. Milk was one of the important things we are out of, so I picked up some at Walmart along with some lemon juice while I was there.
Ginger was here this morning so we opened up Maple’s Advent Calendar this evening. The kids split the little treat in 1/2 and each gave her a piece. Fortunately, Maple really liked it! She is very specific about the treats she will eat, so we lucked out with this one…
Bobby had a long nap this afternoon. I napped when I got back from Walmart as well. This kind of threw our schedule off so we didn’t do our TM meditation this evening. There is always tomorrow.
