The Waiting...

...is the hardest part. For Annie anyway. She's been counting down for the big day since around October and now it's down to "I go to sleep tonight, then go to sleep tomorrow night, then it's Christmas Eve day!" She seems distracted, hardly eats and barely wants to leave the house because she might miss something. So to keep her busy and hopefully, exhasted, I moved her new stereo (thanks Mary!) into the dining room, pushed the table into the corner and created a "dance floor." I can hear her now, above me, dancing and rockin' out!

Fortunately, Harpo seems to help with the grounding. She is so funny with her "photoshop" events.
Oh, the pain of it all!!!!

Similar reaction here too. My spouse figured out how to play the i-tunes through the stereo system, showed DD, and she has been quite content being the DJ.

I hope Annie sleeps tonight. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
