okay, I am up and I am moving, time to make the coffee and the cookie sliders for the luncheon

also got to take the bathroom trash out and scrub the sink drain real quick

Oh, yeah, and set up the living room so it's festive for company

bathroom trash is out, sink and shower drains are scrubbed, oven is preheating, coffee is percolating, time to attack the living room

lol, nothing like forgetting to start the timer when you put the cookies in the oven

and then proceeding to do dishes and not know what time it is

(they're fine, I caught them in time)

Cookies is cooling, just need to be iced and speckled, and the scones get stirred up and thrown in the oven as soon as I get the text from dad to say they're on the way

though at this rate maybe no scones since we're running right up onto luncheon time

(which probably means A, he forgot I said I had scones and stocking stuff or B, my brother and/or his GF aren't up yet)

yeah looks like we'll be doing stockings in the car (or not at all) and family presents at godmom's (which isn't a problem! It's just... not what I initially planned for)

(though tbh dad's present will be more hilarious with godmom there to see it, so)

okay yeah, they're almost on the way, apparently brother's not feeling well, told pop to spray him down with Lysol before they leave

(though it's probably asthma/bronchitis related, he usually gets a chest thing in the winter, poor dude)
