Does Christmas Break end???

My brain is fried... kids are running a muck....what is it? 2 days till school is back in session?
My kids are the best, they're fun to hang out with, creative, destructive, demanding, mess making... oh wait, did I mention how much I love them??
I love them SO much that I'm buying them new backpacks, new socks, underwear (that's a post for later), and fantastic yummy snacks to pack in their lunches so they can GO BACK TO SCHOOL!

HAHA! I know you're all in a similar state about now. The excitement of the holiday season is gone, the tree has been packed away and the wrapping paper stuffed in the trash. New toys have already lost their interest and fighting has begun.
We're surviving.. hardly .. but we are! And counting down till 6:23 Monday morning when that big yellow bus rattles it's way down the street to whisk my little angels away to the magical land of learning for 8 hours!
I have it all planned out now. I'll walk back home, lie on the couch and nap with my cat. Then, if it tickles my fancy, I'll do the suburban mom thing and go stroll through Target with freshly brewed Starbucks in my hand. Roam the aisles and ravage the clearance sections! Is that pink chevron Sally Hansen manicure stickers for $5? Sure, I'll forget I have them and they will get shoved to the back of the bathroom drawer, but I'm buying them because they're $5 and I'm kid free!
After Target, I'll chicken out of going to the sushi restaurant alone and grab some from the grocery store down the street instead. It's not as good, but I can take it home and eat it in my sweat pants while binge watching Supernatural on Netflix.
Then.. depending on the state of my house.. I may clean up a little, so it doesn't look like I've been a selfish slob ALL day.. or.. I could take another nap. I've been deprived of naps for 14 days. The cat, the couch, and I have a lot of making up to do.

..... 2 more days... 2 more.. I can make it!
