Awesome, Quiet Day

Hey, you.

Great to hear your voice today too. And although there are some pressing worries, I'm glad to hear your Christmas spirit even on the page.

I promised to read and write tonight but, of course, didn't sit down to do so until after 9:00. Soooo....here I am, at 10:30, more in the mood for bed than for writing. I did get some wrapping done, though, after about half an hour of frustration over trying to make a stupid save-the-date card with a photograph on it. I'm sure I just don't have the right software or know the right websites, but I just can't bear to turn it over to CC. Not because I don't want her to help, but because the way things have been going lately, they simply won't get done. So I'll try to figure it out later - I kind of picked up on your idea of waiting til after the beginning of the year so as not to mix with Christmas cards anyway.

Liked your list - here's mine:

House Decor: Done. Done, done, done. Thank God for The 12 Drinks.
Cards: Purchased. Stamps too. I better slow down.
Presents: Still have some shopping to do for J. He's impossible. Everyone else is done. Wahoo!
Treats: Bought peppermint bark and Almond Roca. J insisted. Oh, and I objected. Right. I did make a huge batch of my now-almost-famous carmel corn.
Mood: Awesome. Had most of the day to myself which I really needed. Coping with the M issue pretty well. So far.

Tomorrow school in the morning then I have the whole day to wrap and shop and catch up on CSI reruns. We have something going every single night this week so I plan to spend my days as quietly and as alone as possible!

Love you!
