Christmas, anyone?

Random things that (I might have been responsible for) happened today:
  1. My dog (yes, got one of those now as well, and it deserves and it will get its own post) woke us up twice barking at the door. I am not sure what time it was the first time, it was 4:25 the second time - and this time it was because the cats were fighting outside. 
  2. I remembered I forgot to twist the tree's top branch so that the thingy on top would be at a weird angle and would make Santa laugh like crazy (my youngest had that idea). He forgot as well so I escaped being the worst mother ever by promising him to take care of it and then not doing it.
  3. My oldest left a note yesterday for Santa to sign, cause he knows our signatures and he can therefore check if one of us is Santa. I signed with "Ho, ho, ho. Santa" and he was deliriously happy that Santa exists, as it was definitely not one of our signatures.
  4. I woke up and went quickly to brush my teeth before my kids would wake up and check the gifts. After the dog & cats concert during the night, my right foot ended up in my cat's water bowl, splashing the bathroom, my pj's and my slippers.
  5. I tried to brush my teeth while dressing. Especially changing my pj's and slippers, as you can imagine. I ended up sneezing with my toothbrush in my mouth (tightly closed,hah!), and half naked. Pretty weird.
  6. I had no coffee before 10:30 a.m. as I had to put together a Hot Wheels garage, then play baby foot and whatever.
  7. The above was extremely obvious when I poured cat's (initially) solid food in its water bowl - yes, a freshly filled one due to no. 4 above. This turned up to look like breakfast cereals for cats -  my cat did not appreciate. She's not into Cheerios with water, I guess. She just looked at me like 'are you sh$%@# me??'.
  8. I was so happy to finally have time to make - and drink - coffee, that I also made tea and got some fruit juice at the same time. I think I drank from 3-4 glasses and cups all day long, just because I could. And yes, one of them was a wine glass.
Nope, I kid you not. Just another day...  Merry Christmas to you all!
