Peppermint Tea

Today was “Grinch” day for Emerson, but we didn’t have anything Grinch, so she just went with green. And for Addison it was “dress like a Christmas tree” day, so she also went with a green shirt, topped off with a Christmas tree lights headband!

Stocked up on a giant box of peppermint tea for my personal tea stash at the office, which was a good thing, since they sent us outside for a fire drill at 9:30 am in 37-degree temperatures!

Classic meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans for dinner, which felt like another nostalgic nineties meal like last night’s meal. Emmie loved the meatloaf, and Addie loved the green beans. And Jeff, who’s nickname is “Mr. Potato Head,” loved the potatoes of course.

We watched part of “The Christmas Chronicles” on Netflix after dinner, until it was time to get the girls into bed. Pennie wanted to come back and cuddle up tonight, and she spent the whole time laying directly on top of my leg, putting my leg to sleep as well 🤣

We need to fold some laundry and wash some dishes, but I also want to have another mug of hot tea and watch a Christmas movie. So I better get going on my chores, so I can also enjoy some free time!
