social butterfly

Whew! We have just come through a very busy social weekend. Now it's mostly the "family" portion of the holidays.

Thursday was a potluck at R's -- kid friendly and the kid happily rammed around with a 5 year old accomplice. Friday was hubby's office party -- not kid friendly (she stayed over at her Nana's house) -- we left when some of the guys started attempting flaming sambucas (eeep!!). Saturday we had not one but TWO parties to attend. First was T&J's open house -- kid friendly and she made herself right at home, right down to changing into another girl's clothes (apparently she is not shy)! After that, we dropped the exhausted kid off at her Granny's house and made our way to M's combo birthday/Christmas party. The highlight was an interactive improv storytime of the "Magical Tale of the Pantsless Moose Who Skated on an Obscenity Charge."

Today, I start dayshift for a week and while I am at work, hubby will be using a borrowed steamcleaner to lift some of the crud out of the carpets.
