Oh! Christmas shopping season's greetings!

Snow!

Our Thanksgiving dinner was wonderful.  Just the three of us and my friend, Cheryl.  I was "thankful" (ha ha) that she brought the potato dish, because I don't eat them (I know) and never cook them.  My menfolk (husband and son) know that if they want me to pick up potatos at the store, I will do so, but they will have to cook them....as a result, I never receive that request :-).  I intended to put up the tree on Friday, but ended up doing practically nothing ~ including working much on my paper. I was a little upset at myself for not accomplishing more....
~Sunday: put tree together and plug in to check lights. 
~Monday: dig out the tree skirt and put the tree topper on.
~Wednesday: dig out the garland and put that on.
***still haven't finished decorating the tree.  Hopefully will do that tonight!

Why I don't like winter (other than snow).

-The potty seat is cold.
-Goosebumps
-Wearing sweaters, coats, scarves.
-The car warms up right about the time you arrive at your destination.
-The utility bill.
-Christmas shopping.
-Getting up at 5:30 to be at work at 6:45 when it's icy and cold.  

We did have about 6 inches of snow Thursday...it makes the season seem more, I don't know, Christmasy?  

Today is going to be busy, have to grocery shop, and I'm playing in a racquetball tournament, so I better get off my butt and get ready.  If you saw what my hair looked like at this moment, you'd probably scream.

Love, 365

  1. I get up at 5 to be at work at 6:15. And no matter how long I do it, no matter how much I love my job (and I do) I will NEVER love 5 AM. Never.

    And I hate cold. I hate snow.
    Bah Humbug.

    Your hair looks fine to me.

  2. PS.. could you consider moderating comments instead of making me try to read those damn 'prove you're not a robot' things? I had to recycle it a few times and then still got it wrong twice. And I'm NOT a robot. At least I don't think I am...

    1. I think I changed it! I can bake a mean cookie, but understanding all the settings, not so much......

Spring has sprung, let the gardening begin....

  This show of blooms was just the beginning! Of course they smell amazing, and all the pollinators think so too. Windows and back door open...
