Merry merry everyone! I hope you have a lovely day, whatever that looks like for you. We have some very happy kiddos here this morning and have already played with about half of their gifts! Now, for a little mid day rest. In hopes I can stay awake until 1am when the Heated Rivalry finale airs. 🥰

Thank you! Going to bed now. I know they will be excited little kids in the morning. Worth it all for their joy. I hope you have a lovely holiday Kelly!

Every year I panic thinking I haven't bought enough for the kids. Then xmas eve rolls around and I start setting stuff out and ope! Wayyyy too much.

Can confirm, he just left my house in Charlottetown.

I could watch something else, or read a new book. Or... I could just rewatch the entirety of Heated Rivarly for the 6th time.

I mean this in the best way, you look so much like Catherine O'Hara in Home Alone here! 😍

Should I be baking or wrapping or doing something productive during Rupert's naptime? Yes. Am I going to rewatch the latest episode for that club scene instead? Absolutely.

The way I feel about Heated Rivalry is, I assume, similar to Swifties and Taylor Swift or people really into Wicked. I cannot stop rewatching. And watching every single interview. Obsessed. The Canadian touch just makes it extra special.

Bought a box of clementines and each individual segment has 3 seeds. What a pain.

Everyone in this house is coughing except me and it's driving me mad. And also if I catch this before my staff party on Friday I may actually perish.

Ru popping out from his room when he's supposed to be napping and catching J eating pizza:
"Oh! What are you eating? Oh, pizza! Can I have a piece?"
The epitome of Mr
Ratburn sniffing out cake.

I genuinely enjoy all 3 of them. But the OG classic is my all time fave holiday movie.

That's our style too. Shove it in the trunk and pray it fits.

Will Ferrell as Buddy the Elf stands with hands on hips, wearing a bright green elf costume with yellow trim, white fur cuffs and collar, black belt with gold buckle, and green elf hat with red feather. Light blue background with scattered white snowflakes.

Did you know that Elf has a lot of Canadian connections?
The Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver became the North Pole, a haunted hospital in Coquitlam was used for interior sets and even the famous Buddy burp was Canadian!
This is the story of Elf and Canada!

Getting close to the most wonderful time of the year! Every 4th year. That's right, the winter Olympics baby. Canada's time to shine. Apologies in advance if I overpost. They're the only sports I actually care about.

Same and continue losing it more every year. 🙃

Got the ol' "she's a pleasure to have in class" for my daughter's parent-teacher interview today. Aka quiet and doesn't cause any issues. She's my girl alright.

How do people have the energy to *do* things? I am so exhausted constantly, even with a husband who gets up first with the kids. Idk how single moms do it. Truly super humans.

I've been making an effort to be a smidgen more social at work this year. And I am tired but also happier? And actually looking forward to staff Xmas party coming up!

"Clory had asked the officer multiple times to get her another beer" omg you can't make this shit up 🤦‍♀️

Friday Night Lights got added to Disney+. Don't threaten me with a good time dammit.

Just woken up by kid #1 from a much too short nap and had no idea what time or day it even was.

Time change lining up with Halloween sugar rushes/crashes should absolutely be outlawed. - one very tired mom with 2 very wired kids

I'm sorry Christine. If I could I would trade you some of mine because I feel out-halloween'd this year. We did too much and I'm so ready to be over it, when I normally love it.

Ah yes I do not do the sports but have heard more about baseball this week than I have my whole life combined prior. Go Jays!

Happy Halloween. I ate a 🍃 cookie and am watching the movie Companion. 🔪
What else are people watching tonight?

This week is absolutely draining me. And it's only Wednesday.

I love it. Sending support from Canada!
