- It feels like Missouri in Iowa.
- It has been raining and almost all of the snow is gone.
- I'm pretty sure the ice on the lakes is nearly nothing, too.
- I haven't seen the sun for days and days and days.
- I need to take some pictures for Christmas cards.
- But who wants to take holiday card pictures in the sopping wet outsides?
- Not it.
- I'm sure you probably already have your cards signed, stamped and mailed.
- Good for you.
- I am not in the holiday spirit.
- I have birthday pictures from over the weekend to edit.
- Abby looks pale and sick in all of them.
- Oh, that's right...because she was pale and sick in all of them.
- I took Finn for a walk outside this week. Outside. In December. In Iowa.
- Did I mention that almost all of our snow is gone?
- I feel like making a list of holiday things that I need to get done would be a joke.
- The list would take me until Christmas to write.
- I haven't wrapped one present.
- I'm tired of being crabby. And cranky. And annoyed at the world in general.
- I have to take Finn back to the dentist on Friday.
- I'm very nervous. Very, very nervous. I love his toothy smile.
- I'm going to try to do some Christmas shopping. Maybe. If I'm in the mood.
- I don't think I'm going to be in the mood.
- We don't even have a Christmas tree up...and I'm not sure I want to go to the trouble.
- Why does it seem as though we put so much stress on ourselves during the holidays?
- Oh, that's just me?
- Y'all are walking in a winter wonderland out there?
- Sprinkling tinsel out of your fingertips?
- Lucky you.
