Wednesday. Christmas Eve. Every year I plan to have everything ready as soon as possible and then sit and relax. I never could do it before. I always end up doing everything last minute and having dinner WAY too late. I never had help from the man or my kids so the day was always bad. And of course, after cooking the entire day I had to shower before dinner because I needed to wear my pink panties. So mostly it was this way, I put the food in the oven and run to take a shower. Then dinner and then the plan was to watch a movie. I hate it because my kids expect me to sit and watch it with them but of course, I had to take care of the dishes too and get ready everything for the next day, that mostly was going to the man’s aunt and it involved a lot of packing and stress.

This time I’m trying again to please them. I did all the shopping last month. Yesterday I spent the whole day cooking and baking so hopefully, I can relax a bit together with my kids and do nothing till Friday.

I made 2 lasagnas for tomorrow, then pasta and turkey legs for tonight. I also baked marzipan cookies and 2 panettone’s because that’s the only tradition I keep for Christmas (we call it Pan Dulce in Argentina). All the rest changes every year, I cook what my kids want and we are all happy. (Not true, I hate it some years because they come up with crazy ideas… Like sushi. And if you never made it before, you don’t know that the rice has to be cold or you won’t be able to roll it… then when it gets cold it’s past 7pm and rolling sushi for so many people takes a lot of time, specially without any help).
I’m not sure if you noticed, but except the turkey legs, everything is in disposable trays.

After baking the cookies, I realized I didn’t have enough sugar for the panettone’s so I sent my son to the supermarket. He got back with icing sugar and soaked. I was very disappointed and I broke his heart probably. He offered to go back but then it was very dark and stormy. I was about to pass on the panettone when I remember the sugar pot (for when I get visitors (never)). Thank goodness.

Friday is also a Holiday here. I forgot about it. It’s Saint Stephen. All the stores are closed. Cutie’s real name is Stefano (Stephen) so I decided I was going to bake a cake. But I don’t have sugar… Only sugar cubes, so probably I’ll be crushing sugar cubes early in the morning.

It seams that my blog will be famous for ass and boob groping. This is the first search term of the day.

Rob from weight2lose2013.wordpress.com was curious about how high I appeared on the search. So yesterday, for the first time, I did a Google search (I don’t use Google, I’m a Yahoo girl).

I’m on the first page, top right.

It seems I’m there to stay…

One of the pictures I found was this one below, probably that explains how some sick minds work. Or why do you think they are searching? When I did the search, it was to illustrate the total lack of respect for women and to tell my personal experiences.

    We are going to have to work hard on the vomit and poop stories to change your google status. Your son is 13 years old, is he flaky? It seems overtime he goes to store he forgets the list, what was on list or get wrong thing? Maybe his mind is overflowing like his mother’s and can’t concentrate. So you very excited the man is coming for dinner!!!!!! What is he bring to the fest other than his appetite? Was it also your oldest that invited the man to dinner without asking you first? Not that you would say no, the kids want to see him, but ask first. Why do you have to go see his aunt? I thought you passed on that this year and she’s gone. Did she stay to see his parents? Sounds a bit crazy to me. Probably the lack of Italian in me, I have strong German, Cherokee and Texan blood.
    Have a great day. I’m trying to do a post for you today but I’m running out of juice, another night without much sleep. I’m typing with gloves on, I’m freezing.

    • Open Minded Twin,
      My 2nd son went to the supermarket, my 13th years old is not really collaborative right now. Also my 2nd son invited the man tomorrow.
      And no, I’m not going anymore to his aunt, I had to do that until last year… I feel so free now!! 🙂
      I told him that next time he has to ask first, but I hope that there are not many times…. 🙂
      Is it that cold? or you are feeling cold? It’ll freeze from tomorrow… Not looking forward to it… I’m glad it’s during the holidays!!

        What in the hell does a 13 year old have to complain about? Everything? Start sending him to supermarket to give him an attitude adjustment. I have three pets, I run a tight ship here! If I had even three kids, one kid, I would be so crazy….kinda like you! That’s why you can’t plan to get things done ahead of time or much else….five kids. You say no grabbing but five kids tells me different!!!!!!! Yes it’s cold here, nothing like where you are. They all feel the same to me, when you don’t leave the house the weather doesn’t bother you. I get to leave house mid Jan. to see doctor!!!! Wow three weeks away. The jerk closed for holiday before calling in a stronger pain rx. He is going to get an earful from me. Everything hurts worse than anything before and I have no pain meds. The only thing that helps is sleep and that doesn’t come easy due to hip and shoulder pain. I have Lyme Arthritis in every joint in body except 9 toes. You know it’s bad when just sitting hurts. There sunshine at end of dark tunnel. I’ll get there but this week has been so hard. I can overcome every type of abuse but pain for so long opens the door to depression. The two are not welcome, depression has no room now. I hope you received the email of our coffee mug I sent tonight. It’s 1:24AM here. I felt so bad, laid on couch to sleep and we skipped our Christmas Eve tradition. I don’t know how I’ll do it later today but there are several hours before that. I better start my Throwback Thursday or it might not get done.
