The day started out great. I got up too late to run but that only made me early for work. -_- That was fine because it would be a fairly lackadaisical day. There was work to do but no one to pile on more or interrupt. I did have one mishap with an expense report that ended up bringing my boss into work on a day she wouldn't normally be there ( Read more... )

I was up at an average weekend time of 9 am today. After getting ready for the day I got on the computer to check messages and work on pictures. I had hoped to get some things done before heading out so I could upload them to flickr at Tom's. Well that didn't happen because I really had too much to do. Bo had upset me the day before and wanted ( Read more... )

Since we didn't get to have our regular Christmas party this year (with friend) due to weather we rescheduled and did it in January instead. Bo wasn't back yet but he would be flying in around 7pm and then getting a ride to Tom's house ( Read more... )

The plan for today was to get my car back from the shop and then head down to Portland to visit with friends for a Christmas gathering. Unfortunately the weather wasn't going to cooperate. We all knew that it was snowing and going to snow, it just got worse by today ( Read more... )

I woke up this morning around 7:30 (8 by my bedroom clock). When this happens I am usually faced with the dilemma of going back to bed or staying up and getting more things done in the day.

This entry is really long. I have broken up it in to sections for those who wish to skip over anything you don't want to read. I would direct Erik to read the part about breakfast if he chooses to read this and Tom to read the part about the gifts.

Last of the CandyI was up today around 9am. I wanted to sleep in but I still had one more thing ( Read more... )

After work on I came home and started right away at prepping to make the goodies I would be giving away this year. I had ditched the cobbler idea because I never took the time to try one out and I didn't have the time left to make them anyway ( Read more... )

Friday was a particularly stressful night. I was working very hard to get things done for the Christmas party at the anime meeting on Saturday. I finally gave up at about 9:30 when I burned half a batch of almond bark I was melting. I was so tired I was half asleep and that's why it burned ( Read more... )
