Hello from the
Dorius'!!
Things here have
been crazy!
Jes has been
working crazy long hours
(I think in hopes of making Christmas not so
tight)
Monday he worked
5am-3pm at his regular job.
Then he worked on a
side job from 4pm-10pm.
He was in bed by
12:30am.
Tuesday he worked 5
am-3pm at his regular job.
He then drove to
Park City and worked at the Mansion,
not getting home until just before 1
am.
Wednesday he worked
from 4am-3pm - regular job.
He took his big
ladder over and hung "Grandma Carolyn's" Christmas lights on her house.
Then went to his
side job again, getting home just after 10:30pm.
Believe it or not
today he slept in!
*gasp*
He didn't leave for
work until almost 6 am!
*chuckle*
*sigh*
He didn't get home from his regular work
though until 5 pm.
He ran back over to
"grandma's" to add an extension cord and get them lights glowin...
He actually ATE
DINNER WITH US...
and then headed
back to his side job in American Fork.
Emmalee has been
working crazy long hours as well!
She has Concert
Choir at school, and then are doing a "Spirit of Christmas" program.
She has had
rehearsals almost everyday for the past 6 school days.
(It is not just the
choir, but it is the whole fine arts program together!)
(so it's BIG)
She has gone to
school at 8:30am.
She gets out a 3:15pm
and stays at the school working on her homework as best she can because
rehearsals start at 4:00pm.
She is suppose to be
done by 9pm... but her best friend is the President of the Concert Choir, and
multiple times she and her friend have had to stay late to clean up the
classrooms that the students wait in until it's their time on stage.
It has been A LOT
of work for her.
After so many days, she crashed
yesterday and called in an "Honor Roll Hookie Day".
(if the kids are on the honor roll they earn 1 Hookie Day a Semester - a free day)
We ran errands
together, but she spent most of the day desperately finishing the homework that
has been piling up so she won't mess up her honor roll status.
(some day off eh? LOL)
Performances
started tonight and so she will be back at the school from 5pm-9pm today, tomorrow and
monday, with another program on Saturday from 2-4!
The boys and I have done some Christmas crafts and kept up on the household stuff, homework stuff, & reading, playing games & guiltily being kinda lazy comparatively!
During dinner
tonight, when we did our "Best Part/Worst Part of the Day" - without Emma
because she had just left for her performance - but Caleb said his best part about
today was that
"I gots to see my whole family all at the same time for a few
minutes today"
*sniff*
He is such a sweet
boy.
It has been
rough!
The boys have been in
bed everytime Em and Jes have come home for days!
:(
I can't wait for
NEXT TUESDAY!!
Oh wait!
That's Young
Men/Young Women's Night.
*sigh*
Ok.
I can't wait for
next WEDNESDAY
LOL
It's the most wonderful time of the year.......
