Tardy for the party ...

My last post was on 11/13 and today is 11/27.  I am sure that my readers are just dying to know what this Clust-Her has been up to, right?  I wish it were as exciting as it could be but the honest answer is .... I have been slammed at work, The Kidlet has had me running and my personal life has been positive yet kind of insane.

Cliffs Notes Version

*  Work is busy which is good.  Work is coming in fast and furious which is good.  Being in sales means that I enjoy being out and about, shaking hands and kissin' babies yet there are VERY boring administrative aspects of the job that are required.  YUCK!  I put these things off as long as possible until I had to get them done.
*  The Kidlet is finally done with cheer and volleyball for this season.  FINALLY is the key word.  We will continue with volleyball in the Spring but I'm not so sure that she and I are on Team Craig/Ariana (AKA GO SPARTANS).  More on this topic later.  This is my favorite video of the season, she obviously knows that I am filming.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ywfydgcygpc
*  Lucy turned one human year old on October 31st.  Thank God she is cute!
*  I assisted in coordinating a lakefront wedding.  Yes, you read correctly ... me, the person that would rather attend an execution of a death row inmate rather than attend a wedding actually assisted in planning and executing (wink wink) a real-live-wedding.  Go figure.

 
*  Thanksgiving was amazing!  I stayed in town even though The Mother disapproved.  I was supposed to have The Kidet since Ex Hubs has her this year for Christmas but, I had no big plans so I agreed to her joining his family event.  I witnessed an official turkey injection which I now refer to as, Botox Turkey Style.  I ended up having two fantastic meals that day with fabulous people (and fried turkey).   My green bean casserole, sweet potatoes and pumpkin pies would have even impressed Paula Dean.  I also went fishing and shot a .45 handgun three times.  First shot missed but the second two hit the target.  I feel so powerful.

*  Buster, our Elf on the Shelf appeared on Sunday.  So far, he is keeping The Kidlet in line but it is only Tuesday.  This photo is from this morning.  The Kidlet responded with, "Mommy, Busters' butt is in my cereal bowl!  I'm not eating out of it now".
*  New Ugg boots because I will be sporting them for the second time today, I love them and they make me about 2 inches taller and, "I wish I was a little bit taller ya'll" ..... Malouf's, I love you too!

That's a brief update.  Prepping for Christmas begins and so will the shenanigans.
XOXO,
