comin' on Christmas, they're putting up trees....

I’ve got a job interview at a bank on Tuesday. I’d love it if I were to get a job because I just got a bunch of money from cashing out my Whole Foods 401K plan so if I did have a steady income on the horizon it would be an excuse to buy nice Christmas gifts for my whole family (because I’ve been working low paying McJob I haven’t been able to go all out for Christmas in several years and frankly I would love to. I delight in buying nice presents for people).

I was sick last night and did nothing but lay around and watch back episodes of Criminal Minds on A&E then I went to bed at 9:00 p.m. and slept through till 7:00 a.m. I still felt a little shaky yet this morning so I didn’t go to church for the first time since early October. I did end up helping my grandmother put up some Christmas decorations. She wanted to get it taken care of because last year one of our neighbors (who means well but doesn’t realize how tried she gets) came over and just about wore her out decorating.

This afternoon I’m going to work at putting together some homemade Christmas cards. I have these blank cards that I bought at Target that I’m going to use for the bases then add chocolate brown and pink and aqua Christmas trees.

In preparation for the holidays I’ve also been listening incessantly to Tori Amos’ Midwinter Graces and Ella Fitzgerald’s Ella Wishes You A Swinging Christmas.

daily life, holidays
