Hey, It's Okay

I got this idea from Glamour magazine. You can link up any day of the week. All you have to do is make a list of what you're okay about. Simple!




Hey, It's Okay....



--To be excited to see Rogue One. We'll probably be seeing it after Christmas since we're so busy.



--To think I am finally done Christmas shopping. I hope!



--To be staying a few days with my parents next week. We'll be going to the zoo to see the lights and there's a carnival with lights near her house. And we're making cookies!



--To have to take 1 dozen unfrosted cupcakes to Natalie's Christmas party on Friday. And then I'm staying to help the kids. Maybe I should bring earplugs?



--To be bringing a gift for Natalie's teacher too because she has to deal with all those kids WITHOUT earplugs. She loves Harry Potter so she's getting a framed quote, chocolate, a $25 gift card to Starbucks, and hand sanitizer because all those kids=germs. I'll share a photo on Instagram soon!



--To appreciate all the kind comments I received on my post from yesterday explaining why I think Buddy the Elf might have autism.



--To have taken Natalie to Sea World to check out the 5 million lights they have up. It was fun, and we had dinner with Santa. There was a mime there, that baffled me, but he was a funny mime, so okay! I'll have a post up soon about all our adventures there.

  5. Oh! What's the Harry Potter quote?!? (If I were a kid in Natalie's class, I'd appreciate the unfrosted cupcake! I prefer cupcakes without frosting cause I'm weird!)

  7. I am pretty sure that I am done shopping. It is negative 14 degrees today, so we won't be going anywhere, haha! Earplugs would have been awesome when I did gingerbread houses with Shelby's kindergarten class!

  41. Since I have been down sick I haven't done one Christmas Card or shopped for one present. We didn't even get the tree up this year and the outdoor decorations came down in the wind. We are currently without water and minimal electricity. It's been one of those seasons.

    ReplyDelete
  42. That's awesome! I can't wait to see Rogue One, I haven't had the time yet as well. I loved reading that post about Elf.
