Happy Homemaker Monday

The Weather:::
Its 54 degrees right now. Supposed to have a high of 63degrees today. Expecting rain this week. I love it. I just want to make hot chocolate and sit by my fireplace.

Right now I am:
Trying to figure out what to do with my day. I have to deal with my mom's medications being all messed up since she was released from the hospital. That's the most important thing for today.

Thinking:
I wasn't ready for Christmas but now that my mom has been released from the hospital I am and it's coming quickly.
