We are in a state of controlled chaos here. There’s loads of empty boxes. And loads of half-unpacked-because-I-don’t-know-where-they-go-yet boxes. And there’s piles of things that need washing. And there’s shelves not installed because the suggested layout didn’t quite work so there’s some needed exchanges/adjustments. And there’s #1 daughter home from college with boyfriend, making and eating cookies with #2 daughter. And it’s Advent, with all that brings (shopping, wrapping and celebrating…!!!) And it’s all fun and tiring and wonderful.
And oh… I can’t find
– the cookbooks
– the Christmas tree skirt
– the stockings
– the candles for the Advent wreath (ergo, we had to make a trip and go buy them… because!)
