Is Jilli around? I found a listing for Vintage Lace-up boots on Etsy and thought of her. [link]
Oooh, cute! Not my size, but very cute.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I have to go out and buy my own present on Christmas Eve. *sigh*

The package from my brother came, so the kids will have more toys. Phew. Also mr. flea seems to have bought me something! Anyway, a package came from Amazon that I am not to open. And it's too big to be a book.

mr. flea is mopping the kitchen and dining room floor. It is a Christmas miracle, I tell you! I mean, I asked him to do it, but it is making me so happy! (I do not mop.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had a Christmas miracle--the nurse got an IV in in a completely new spot first try. And I think they appreciated the cookies. The nurse I handed it over to seemed a little surprised. But then she nailed the IV, so I think it worked out.

Excellent job, ita's nurse!

I think maybe UPS doesn't realize we weren't waiting on a last-minute Christmas present, but I'm grateful for the delivery anyway - I was starting to really worry that the new Amby mattress wouldn't arrive until after the baby was born!! But it's here, delivered to our 4th-floor doorstep while we were out at the planetarium watching "the space movie," and all is well with the world.
(Well, except for the mini-tantrum being thrown in the other room over handwashing. Kid, it's not like "wash your hands after you pee" is some kind of arbitrary new rule we just introduced today. This should be a habit by now.)
