Today I finally cut up Kaden's fingerpaintings into the Christmas Thank You cards... and we finished his "hand turkey shirt" by painting his hand outline on it. So we've one shirt with 3 years of handprints, but it won't fit him next year. Unless I sew it onto a NEW t-shirt. Which, given my track record for completing projects, I should start in about 3.5 hours.
I keep forgetting we have Monday off for MLK day. I like the idea of doing a service project... and then again I like the idea of hanging on in PJs in the backyard. Hey, does completing your own unfinished house/kid projects count as service? Just kidding. (Mostly.)
Anyway, we also packed up the tree and Christmas stuff earlier in the week, but left the boxes on the porch because there's always random ornaments or PJs that show up a few days later. But tomorrow they go into the attic! Well, after we get the wreath off the door (I got used to seeing it there).
Speaking of getting used to things... we have 3 pumpkins still in the front door area. Not carved, but glitter painted. I ignored my neighbor's suggestion to paint them red, but maybe now we will. For Valentine's Day, of course! I was officially tired of them at New Year's, but now it's kinda like Kramer test-driving that car with the fuel gauge on E: how long will they make it?

We have pumpkins outside too, little ones that we didn't carve!
I'm all kinds of behind, even though we did get our cards out so many other things (blogging?) have totally fallen to the wayside.
