sharing the computer

"Are you almost done?"
"I was fixing to get on that"
"Aw its my turn"
"Mama, she knew I was about to get on the computer"
"Mama can you get me on Playhouse Disney?" Samuel
This is a lot of the conversation I hear throughout the day. It seems every time I get on the computer the kids heckle me until I get off. I guess I will have to come up with a schedule for the kids. Dave never has to deal with this because he has a laptop. I really need a laptop. Maybe I should write a note to Santa this year and ask for one. :) I don't mind the kids getting on the computer, but they seem to rearrange things when they are on here. I can't figure out how they got my screen like this. I am a little annoyed. I will have to get Dave down here to fix this problem.

OK enough mindless rambling. We are putting our Christmas tree up today!!! Yay!! The kids are excited. Me too! We will not start until tonight but the kids wanted to do their schoolwork last night so they did not have to go to school today. So we started at 5:00pm and completed today's work by 7:00pm. Then we cleaned their rooms. So today is a free day. Actually the kids are going to school with Dave at 12:30. They love his students. He is working on Christmas music and the kids wanted to go hear the band. So that gives me the afternoon to myself. Not sure what I'll do yet. I am always thankful for a few hour all to myself. Anyway, I'll post pictures of our Christmas decorations later.

haha-sounds familiar...we have similar conversations everyday at our house, especially now with the homework being an issue.
btw, I love that song "Baby
It's Cold Outside..." and boy is it-I think it's actually like 20 degrees here in the office. Up here we can sing "Baby It's Cold Inside.."
