Hi Patricia..Sounds like my days over here..I have been so busy these past 2 weeks..!!!  Next week I have a meeting or appt. every day..The 19th is the last day of school here for the Christmas break..  We will be having Christmas dinner down at Alishas house..Looks like Lexie and Olivia will be coming as well..Have not seen Olivia in close to a year..She really does not like to come over..She does not know us..Rick and Kexie both kept her away as they both struggle with addictions and they were trying hard to cover it up..  Now that Rick is gone Lexie does not feel too obligated to come on over or have Olivia come..  She is coming on Monday for me to watch her after school...Lexie needs a sitter she has to work late..That is the only reason.. We had invited them to come last year for dinner, but I got a phone call the Olivia was sick..  Which happens, but we ended up running into her older sister..Lexie has 2 older kids..Like a lot older..Grace was working at a gas station that we go to and I said how sorry I was to hear that Olivia was sick and they could not all come for dinner..She looked at me and said no one was sick..!!!  So I just said to say hi to everyone..
