Christmas eve


So, here it is Christmas eve. I am not going anywhere today, but I do have a lot of people coming here. Tonight's numbers should top around 20 extra people. Some will stay for Christmas and some are are leaving to go home. I still can't believe that two of the marines are driving to Montana on Christmas day!
Tonight we are going to drink home made eggnog...spiked! My mom makes the best eggnog ever. We are also going to make ginger bread houses. This should be very interesting.... drunk marines trying to make ginger bread houses. Yes, I will get pictures.
My mom and daughters are on my nerves. My mom can't just "be". She thinks that if the dishes sit in the sink over night that we are all going to die. I just don't care.
My mom does not recycle, so I have to dig threw our trash and pull all the stuff out.
My mom babies Ryan. I do not. My mom caters to his every whim. Once my mom leaves I will have to reprogram Ryan and remind that he can do certain things and that I am not his waitress or maid.
The girls just follow my mom's lead. So I am trying not to cause waves. I am just letting it all go. I keep reminding myself that she leaves on Friday..... if Chicago is not snowed in.
I do need to go get some last minute cleaning done, oh.... I went to the islands last night!
