Every year I long for autumn and winter (my favorite seasons), and every year when they finally arrive, I'm tearing my hair out saying, "WHY did I want this, and when is New Year's so this holiday thing can be OVER?" Holiday season American-style is just a bit on the nutty side, in terms of expectations and workload. Even for those of us who try to simplify. How about we move it back a couple of hundred years, and just make the entire thing into a big dinner on Christmas and a handful of chestnuts? :)Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10301075330910381544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-581913724905405055.post-25610781726013395582015-11-08T15:50:46.633-07:002015-11-08T15:50:46.633-07:00Thank you, Anne!

We are doing well, still in hospital because of jaundice but hoping to go home tomorrow. Easy recovery so far.

Not sure if they will call me in later today or try for tomorrow. We are just waiting to see. I'm overdue for the first time since my first baby. I'm praying it will mean a quicker labor in the end. I was dilated to 4cm on Monday. My body just isn't doing anything productive/consistent.

And you're up for Christmas already? Sigh. All this rest is driving me batty. I want to be ready for something. Bleh. But what a cute bunch of pumpkins you have!GAHCindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09468246525104936898noreply@blogger.com
