2015 Day 21 - Snapshots of Reality

The reality of today is that its my mother's 73rd birthday.

We got up early to go to PJ's allergist appointment...which was a feat in and of itself, but we managed to get there early.  PJ was great with the allergist (McDreamy for sure!)  We had to take him for a blood draw and he was quiet worried and upset, but did an excellent job.  He was upset afterwards having to have a band-aid on that he made me hold his arm at the injection site for the 30 minutes that we needed to keep the band-aid on...well, that was a feat in and of itself because he never.stops.moving....so it was a challenge.  It was cold out too, so we couldn't leave the building because he needed a coat on and I wasn't allowed to take my had off his arm...lol!

After all that drama was done, we took Graeme home to work on moving his piles and/or wrap presents while PJ and I went to the indoor gym.  He ran around and played but it was a little overwhelming because there were a ton of kids there (he's used to being there in the summer when its empty).

Anyway, the reality of the day was that I did nothing for preparing for Christmas...but did have a few hours at the play-place to watch a couple of Christmas movies.  AND it was day 1 of 4 of operation 'clean up crap before Christmas Eve guests arrive'
