Vacation is just around the corner....
It's our last week before Winter break and I know the kids (and E) are really looking forward to it. Okay...me too. We're going to Long Beach on the Washington coast for a few days. Duncan will probably suffer Xbox Live withdrawal but it's good for him to be oppressed with family things once in a while. Max is even going with us. He'll love running along the beach and sniffing all of the interesting items that wash up on the beach. In the meantime we need to get through this week at work and school. Wish me luck....

Our Decadent Lifestyle
The house officially goes back on the market tomorrow so our day has been spent cleaning. I've mopped all of the floors with the exception of the main bathroom. The computer room still needs a tidy. The kitchen cabinets need to be cleared off again. Add to those some minor tidying in each of the bedrooms and we'll be ready to go through the routine of keeping our beds made and everything picked up for those random potential home buyer visits.
We still haven't decided where to put the darn gerbil cage. Currently he's sitting on a coffee table. The cats have long since gotten over their fascination with the strange smelling moving thing and mostly ignore him. He's a hearty little thing and has defied all expectations by living well beyond his years. He's had what appear to be a few minor strokes, but always manages to be revived with an application of applesauce. Weird, huh?
Okay. Enough babbling. We need to hit the library to pick up some books.

Fabulous Friday
I have to say this was a pretty good week at school. Usually the week back after a long break can be...challenging. Even my own kids seemed to get back into the swing of things rather easily.
Calvin *is* a wee bit tired tonight. Friday is major tidy chore day. He decided that rather than sweeping up the dirt in the entryway he would just brush it all down the stairs to the basement. Fortunately he confessed to this fact. I told him he now had to sweep the stairs as well because cleaning didn't mean he just moved the dirt from one place to another. It actually had to make it to the trash. You would have thought I'd asked him to wash the windows, clean the bathrooms, make all the beds and manicure the dog. I ended up sending him to his room until he got over his drama king meltdown.
Eventually he calmed down and swept the stairs. It's amazing how little time that took. I'll be happy when he realizes he makes something take three times as long by griping about it. Who am I kidding? Duncan's 14 and hasn't figured that out.

Saturday
We spent our Saturday putting away Christmas. The lights are off the house. Wrapping paper has been sorted and stored in plastic tubs. Boxes that my mother insists I save have been gone through (some to recycling) and bundled for easy storage. E still needs to denude the tree but that shouldn't take long. Essentially lots of puttering and tidying was accomplished.
