It's going to be a hot one today.  It's still pretty early-and I got up later than during the week, and...I already showered, and I am making my way through my chores list.  We went to Costco yesterday-didn't buy anything other than a pizza/hot dog lunch, and the kids did their Christmas shopping. They left messages about the item and how much they cost.  I pretty much have the bulk of our shopping done already, yippee.  Hopefully Nick will be here today for the blue car-praying for peace-
