Tomorrow I will officially have a 14 year-old

Tomorrow my Roy turns 14. I am so not happy about this. I want him to stay young and be my little boy, but that can't happen. I baked a cake for the two boys for thier joint birthday party tomorrow. I have several appointments in the morning to deal with and then I can come home and set up the party for my boys. Unfortunately it is supposed to be snowing really bad tomorrow morning. I hope the worst of it is overnight and not while I have to be out on the roads. I get soooo paranoid driving in bad weather.

Next on my list is Christmas cookies which I will start this weekend. Hopefully I'll have all my cookies baked on Saturday which includes sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies and peanut butter cookies. That should be enough to keep me busy all day long. Which means Bill and Roy will have to help with the two little ones that day. I can't get everything done and have them constantly under foot. Granted there are some things that they help with but definately not everything. Since my kitchen is small I have to shoo them out when I am pulling cookie sheets from the oven. I wish I had my kitchen the way I want it and then I would never have to worry about them when I bake. Oh well....that just isn't in the budget yet. Hopefully someday I will get the kitchen I want.

Bill took me to the dog pound yesterday and I found the most adorable jack russel terrier mix. She is a total lover. I am hoping to get her, but she won't be released until December 29th. Bill said if no one else shows up for her I can have her. I really pray that no one will show up and I will get her. She is just so wonderful and I love her disposition. She is 4 months old and really cuddly. That is just the kind of dog I want. It's better than Bill's idea for a dog. But even he liked her. She was really sweet to both of us.
