Christmas went well.  Avery was happy and answered yes when she was asked if she felt she got everything on her wish list.  She was pleased even with the gifts that weren't so "fun" like her electric toothbrush.  Our little gathering here at the house with her Nonni and Zia/Zio was full of food and went smoothly.  The meat from the local packing place was amazing.

Both on Christmas eve and on Christmas day I was so wiped out that I fell asleep right away -- rather than laying in bed overstimulated and unable to sleep -- so I'll call it a huge win.

Yesterday was a lazy day and I've gotten some extra sleep, so I am feeling a bit more calm.  I know the new work week will spin me back up, but for now I am well.  My gift to myself of a new coffee machine arrived today and I made a second cup (of decaf) this afternoon.  It takes both kcups and grounds.  I have also started to move data from the old computer for the new one, it is such a time consuming process.

I got some insight from others regarding the flooring and I feel like my decision is made on what type of floor.  Now I need to go through the full estimate and ask a few questions.
