Yesterday, while shopping for groceries…<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I picked up the ingredients for Monster Cookies<\/a>! \u00a0Have you had them, especially fresh out of the oven? \u00a0Absolutely DELICIOUS! \u00a0It has all my favorite ingredients: Chocolate, M&Ms, Oats. \u00a0I didn’t make them yesterday… but hope to get to it today.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My list of things to do include:<\/p>\n

Addressing and mailing our Christmas Cards. \u00a0(I never get cards that say Merry Christmas because I know it will not likely make it before Christmas!)<\/p>\n

I have a bunch of packages that I need to put together and mail as well.<\/p>\n

I have all the office gifts that need to be wrapped and organized.<\/p>\n

I have our gifts that need to be wrapped and organized, too.<\/p>\n

I need to go get Sanj’s gift… well, one of them.<\/p>\n

There is the never-ending tidying up.<\/p>\n

There is supper…<\/p>\n

Sigh.<\/p>\n

It’s all good, though. \u00a0I have to pick up our laundry from the laundry mat and then there will be the endless task of sorting and putting away.<\/p>\n

I have a little project for the moms (mine and Sanj’s)… putting together an album for them. \u00a0Thank Goodness for the hour photo people!!!<\/p>\n

There is so much that I want\/need to get done in a day! \u00a0I am really looking forward to the New Year where I will actively begin the much talked about writing of my book. \u00a0My mom will be here for a bit and so I hope to write her stuff too.<\/p>\n

Of course this means me taking NO NEW PROJECTS! \u00a0I am hoping that once the never-ending bathrooms are finished… I will have the self control to bury myself in my office and write away. \u00a0I am sure that once I actually get into it, I will be hooked.<\/p>\n

I am so excited about this! \u00a0 I also have another project that I want to do… publish my blog into a book… just for me. \u00a0There are different companies that do this. \u00a0Yet, this means me going through the blog and fixing it up a bit. \u00a0It will be a gift to my boys someday, I am sure. \u00a0They can see into the mind of their mama. \u00a0Scary… I know.<\/p>\n

Last night, as the boys were downstairs watching a movie or something, Sanj and I were sitting in the family room, enjoying a fire and the Christmas tree. \u00a0Max was there, playing on his iPod. \u00a0I mentioned that the talk<\/em> would be happening soon. \u00a0We were laughing and and chatting and the atmosphere was so relaxed.<\/p>\n

I said, “Max, let’s have the talk right now since Daddy is here too.”<\/p>\n

It was the funniest thing! \u00a0I am not sure who was stressed out more… Max, who shot out of his seat or Sanj, who changed three different shades in three seconds! lol<\/p>\n

Max said, “Ah, I want to be taken out of school and to lunch.” \u00a0(As is the tradition, his 3 older brothers have had before him).<\/p>\n

After Max wondered off, I begin telling Sanj the talk<\/em>. \u00a0I told him that since he is too chicken to be part of the talk<\/em>, at least maybe he would like to know what I said. \u00a0(Insert his very discombobulated face here). \u00a0And I began… “When moms and dads are married… and love each other, sometimes they show each other…”<\/p>\n

As I was finishing up, Sanj looked at me and asked, “Do you not have a filter?” \u00a0LAUGHING OUT LOUD!!!<\/p>\n

Me, a filter? \u00a0Apparently not. \u00a0This is one of the reasons he loves me so much! \u00a0No filter! \u00a0Whatcha see is whatcha get!<\/p>\n

Happy Monday!!!<\/p>\n
