Eh, I will anyway, you know that (::wink::).....Squeezing in 4 hours of OT this week between regular work, baking, and wrapping. Actually, that's a lie; the wrapping hasn't occured yet. Trying not to leave everything til Friday night, but my energy only stretches so far.
Not doing cookies this year. Seems unnatural, but really, with the traveling we're doing and as busy as I am right now, it's not worth the effort. Instead there's pound cake, and I hope to do peppermint bark and this nutella-sea salt fudge. We'll see...
Outside: I'm hoping the overcast conditions keep it from actually cranking up to 80 today. I fear I'm fooling myself.
Inside: low chatter, boredom, little sleepy...
Wearing: fat pants, brown shoes, blue top and favorite paisley over it.
Reading: A Simple Amish Christmas...sweet story. Gotta love Kindle freebies.
Creating: Ina Garten's pound cake the last 2 nights...prob 1 more night of that, then the candies.
Going: SC prob Saturday morning til Monday, then NC (via Spartanburg hopefully) til Wednesday, then home
Hoping...
For a holiday of peace, and prayers that next year we're in Spartanburg celebrating our own holidays for the first time, with simpler side trips to visit family. I'm a selfish girl, desperate for a house with a backyard for my future dog and garden.
