Icy hot patches--here I come!

Good grief......someone remind me exactly WHY I volunteered to wrap 150 some prezzies on top of caring for a surgery victim? What WAS I thinking?!
Yeah, well....they're a done deal.
All wrapped and ready to go to the unit.
I was thinking I'd haul 'em up to work on Monday--however, given the state of the weather tonight, I could be hauling them into work tomorrow.
Bit blizzardy out there.
Poor Mr. Snowman was bowing his head from the snow on his hat.
And Penfold's feet became lost. (no worries, I uncovered 'em!)
The lighted prezzies in the backyard are officially buried.

*sigh*
I'm thinkin' my poor back is gonna be complaining through the holidays.....clearing off iced over driveways was one thing. (that was part of my project today.....while it was raining........BEFORE the snow hit and buried us once again)
Add to it the 80 some prezzies wrapped AND rearranging the livingroom cuz it's NOT acceptable to have the lazy-boy plunked smack dab in the middle of the room--I'm not wondering why it is my back is achey tonight.
Oh, and let's not forget to add the required three meal cooking/dishes.
AND the other 'necessary' things one gets to help the surgery victim with.
AND....

......tomorrow--I'll be moving snow.
*shaking head and chuckling*
No rest for the wicked, they say.
Or is that 'no rest for the weary'?

Matters not.....show me those 'icy hot' patches!

Gosh. And we only have six weeks of this to go!
(Pretend I sounded enthusiastic about that one.....)
YIPPEE!

*rolling eyes*

That's way too many presents to be wrapping - don't they split up the work around there? Sheesh!

Take it easy my friend. You're gonna wear yourself out.

Rest, cocoa and more rest.


Peace today.

you don't have to do EVERYTHING yourself....hire some neighbor kid to move the snow.
