Too many things to do

We've been to the ridign school with Vendela and I'm slowly getting warm again. I'm still wearing jeans indoor though, which is a sign that I got really chilled, because our flat is so warm that I usually just wear a dress os top and skirt.
I have made the marzipan, which now needs to divided into pieces and coloured, I think the kids will have to to the sculpting by themselves this year. I am going to start with "knäck", a swedish kind of toffee with almonds, now and then chocolate fudge. We also need to clean the living room and Maja's room, because soon my stepdad will come with the christmas trees.
Tomorrow we do laundry and more cleaning.

On the importance of patting your wife's bottom

I have now made knäck (swedish candy), fudge, marzipan and sculpted it with the kids, taken care of the cat's litter box and in general tried to keep the kitchen clean while doing all this. At the same time my husband has made hamburgers and hot dogs for the family and played a lot on his online game. Yet I have not attempted to kill him and I have only once raised my voice and since I never stay angry long that was over very soon (we were also disrupted by my mum and step-dad arriving). I do wish that he would be more involved in the "christmas-fixing" though. He claims that he's tired, but you know what? I'm tired too, I'm sick and I do at least the double of what he does. I don't ask much: just that he helps out a little with the house work and that he pats my bottom frequently. The latter is crucial and what saves him; otherwise I would be angry and/or resentful but as long as he does that I can forgive him almost everything.
