9 DAYS!!

Yesterday, I planned to finish wrapping Christmas gifts. I had them all drug upstairs but before getting started, Brooklyn and I ran to the UPS office to drop off some eBay packages that needed to get out. After that, we hit the store to get some diapers (hopefully we will be done buying those soon! Especially since our regular package increased by 5 bucks!). By the time we made it back home, it was nearly time for the kids to get off the bus so we frantically stashed them in my bedroom closet. Yet again, laying around in the way. The kids had AWANA last night, so Shawn and I hit Lowe's to buy a new disposal for the sink as well as a purifier pitcher. Every appliance in our house has something wrong with it, all within the last 6 months. Our $12,000 refrigerator (no, that's not a typo!) won't make ice, our dishwasher latch is busted...I guess it wasn't intended to wash a load daily; the upper oven on the stove will not heat properly because the switchboard is on the fritz. Garbage disposal won't work unless you use a wooden spoon handle and a special method of  'wrist turning' to get it to start. Our microwave works properly! After getting kids off to bed, Shawn and I enjoyed the peace and quiet and decided to exchange our Christmas gifts...a new tradition has been born!
Today's agenda...WRAP KIDS GIFTS.
