naked

It will be a long day.

I have a lot to do when I get home, so I will be chomping at the bit to get there to get started. Tomorrow is the big party day and I am excited. I know it won’t be some raging party, but just the fact that I get to see a bunch of people I know and love will make me all kinds of warm and fuzzy.

I also still have some shopping to do this evening. Ken is hitting up Costco this morning, and we will need to run by the grocery store this evening. I also have a Dollar Tree run along with a couple of other stops. So much to do!

Yesterday, thankfully Bobby’s homework was light and fluffy and we got it all done rather quickly. It was a tough week, what with a whole day being lost from the 90 minute visit from Mr. Chin.

Ken started painting the back part of the house. The stucco repair was dry and he started work on the back porch and trim. It looks so good! I don’t anticipate having the rest of it painting before party time, but it should be ok. Everyone knows how much work has gone into everything and no one will fault us for not having one part undone.

You would think that once this party was done I could relax. In fact, I still have another hosting event next Saturday as well. Grammie is coming, who has seen Steve once, and my folks and Matt will also come and we will do Christmas cookies! Yay! I have a house that can host cookie making! I have a grown up house! I am a grown up, and I am not as upset as I had assumed I would be.

Come January I am hoping for some rest. Of course, Area Playoffs are like the second weekend and I have another soccer day coming up. I guess I will rest when I am dead.

I had a discussion with Bobby about nudity. He was asking about things, and mentioned something about how long has Ken been looking at Playboy. We started talking about Playboy in general, and he wanted to know why anyone would pose nude. I said it was nice to look at. He said that it was icky to look at anyone else naked. I pointed out that our family is a naked family, including him, who sleeps naked all the time. He said that was ok because we knew each other. He said you shouldn’t see people naked unless you know them. It was such a sweet and pure answer that I was kind of happy that he wasn’t tainted in some bad way with nudity. He has been around it enough in person and having seen the magazines and he isn’t getting all weird about it.

I hate cramps. These had better subside before tomorrow.
