Quiet House!

I am sitting here in a quiet house. What's that you ask? Well, it is something that I don't experience to often. Chris is out playing poker with friends. Anna and I had a slumber party of sorts and she crashed early after doing flips over my shoulders on the bed. She fell asleep and I layed there and listened to all of the noises of the house. It amazes me how I can hear every noise tonight but if Chris were at home I wouldn't hear any of it. It isn't that he has the tv turned up loud or anything cause usually he is practically reading lips. I guess it is the comfort of having someone else to "stand guard". Knowing that if something were to happen or whatever he would be here to take care of us. Of course as I am writing this I am watching Ghost Whisperer lol. I guess I liked to be thoroughly freaked out!

We had an ok week. I felt pretty crappy the first part of the week. Just one of those things ya know. Yesterday was better so we got Anna's room all cleaned up and then today we got the windows on the back of the house sparkling like the top of the Chrysler building. Can I hear ya say "The sun'll come out tomorrow. Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow there'll be sun." Sorry trying to get my mind off of what is going on on the tv lol. Anyway, so I guess you could say I have Fall Fever. I am ready to throw open my windows and enjoy the fresh air flowing through. To see the leaves changing, well at least falling lol. We don't really have a typical fall where the leaves change pretty colors and then fall. They pretty much turn brown and then fall but I am ready all the same. I am ready to prepare for the holidays. Anna is going to be so much fun this year. She is already starting to sing Christmas songs and of course I am encouraging it lol. We found her Christmas books when we cleaned out her closet. Today she told me she is ready for Santa to come see her. We were talking about visiting him and sitting on his lap. Maybe if I start now she won't be scared of him by Dec.

Well, now that I am freaked out by the show I am going to snuggle up with Anna and listen to the radio. Hopefully I will manage to fall asleep. Have a good weekend!
