Just One More Day...
Where do I come from? Seriously? Where do I fit into this family? First there was the no tree thing... Then they made a decision that we were having steak for lunch. Fine. Does anyone consult me about how I like my steak cooked (medium rare and still definitively pink, in case you were wondering)? Of course not. So when it comes off the ( Read more... ) -
Another boring update
We went into town today and did a little bit of shopping. I got a couple of just plain knit shirts and a cute little jacket type thing. I also found a shirt for DH. At the grand going out of business sale at Linens 'N Things, I got a wine vacuum for $10 and elsewhere I picked up a marble mortar and pestle for $6, so yay for kitchen stuff. We ( Read more... ) -
Hmmm
Okay CLEARLY I should leave home more often. So yesterday morning, before I left for Texas, I put together some taco soup in the crock pot so DH will have something to eat. He remembered to put it away last night before bed, actually did the dishes (with me not around to ask him to), and this morning, the man who begs me to make his lunch every ( Read more... ) -

Lord Give Me Patience
I am about to be in a car with my side seat driving mother for seven hours in what is likely to be inclement weather. I need all the good Karma, well wishes, prayers, etc. y'all can send so that I don't bite her head off. That wouldn't be a good way to begin 4 days together. I've been in a rush to pack this morning. My bathrobe takes up half my ( Read more... ) -
Promised Christmas Pics!
Okay, so I finally finished the lighting for the Christmas village this morning (we have boxes everywhere and I can't take it anymore, so had to finish so they can go back into the attic). So I finished taking pictures. I'll probably post a few others of the outside next week when I get back in town and the weather improves. So, without further ( Read more... ) -
Missing My Cave
Okay, I know I said I would post Christmas pics of the tree and such, and I will. I've been waiting until we finish with the Christmas village and there are still lighting issues we haven't finished dealing with. Which we may or may not do tonight, as I've been on the road for work all day. It was actually a pretty good day, but now that I'm ( Read more... ) -
Suspense Plots Everywhere
The holiday fest continues tonight with Pillsbury sugar cookies (you know the ones with like reindeer and snowmen and such) and a viewing of The Polar Express in HD. The hot chocolate scene is my favorite. I'm obscenely full (because, yeah, we cooked the whole package and ate all of them--but hey, we only do this once a year, one package, that's ( Read more... ) -
It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas
I have wasted time this morning--well, on lots of things (got downtime at the day job and have been playing)--but I've been working on making my master list of holiday movies and shows that I want to DVR. Hubs and I missed a lot of them last year, so we wanted to be prepared. There are those we already own like The Polar Express, all The Santa ( Read more... )
