Good Morning. Like you I have nothing but the last minute food to prepare. Our kids and Grandkids and MIL will be here after Mass tonite.

We will be home alone tomorrow. MIL is going to the Care Center to eat with FIL tomorrow. We will visit in the afternoon.

Saturday we will gather with Hubby's family. We have grown so quickly with little ones,, last year we rented the Church Hall for our gathering and enjoyed the wide open space of the school gym so much we reserved the space immediately for this year. The young mothers say it is especially nice as there is nothing there the kids can break, so they don't have to watch them so closely.

Sunday, we will entertain my brother's families and my Mom and Stepdad. I bought most of my groceries for Sunday yesterday, but I'm sure I'll need to make another run late Saturday night.

Last night I actually just laid down and started a new book. I was supposed to be peeling shrimp for gumbo, but I felt the beginning of a sinus infection and decided to leave everything for today.

I got out the heating pad and just lay on the couch luxuriating in the fact that there was nothing that HAD to be done, a most unusual circumstance for me this close to Christmas. (I feel much better this morning, thank goodness.) Kitty was sooooo happy with the heating pad on the sofa that she hasn't even stirred for her morning feeding. I think I'll leave it on for her just a little longer.....:)
