Originally the kids and I were scheduled to do some gift shopping today, but it's too freaking cold. It's something like 7 degrees with the windchill, and the boys remove their outerwear to get into their car seats, and I just can't take the amount of standing around in the wind while urging them back into their coats. It's so very frustrating.
So instead, we'll muddle our way through first night of Hanukkah festivities (at Miss A's request!) and attempt to make this the coziest day ever, with
- scary movies
- holiday movies
- a fire in the fireplace
- cookies, depending on my mental health and whether I can withstand "help"
- a pizza party for dinner (because Jason was kind and bought us frozen pizzas)
- books
- board games
- Aquaphor liberally applied to all exposed skin

I am laughing so hard! 15 minutes ago I was stammering and stomping outside of the car as the Littles were taking their sweet time getting out of their car seats. I think next time I am going to sit in the back seat and tell them I need help with my seat belt and see how they like standing in the bitter cold waiting for my slow ass!!
Well those activities sure sound like fun. We have to be creative when the weather stinks.
Poor, poor Jason. My own poor husband will have to endure a steak luncheon on Monday with his co-workers. It must be a rough life indeed.
I will pray cozy day mission is accomplished. Marc had a faculty party last night where they got to play pool and everything. I was extraordinarily jealous.
Time to hunker down for a long, cold winter...
