Miscellaneous Ramblings

I walked a total of 4 miles yesterday – 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening. I lifted weights this morning. It actually felt good. Maybe this warm spell will be what I need to get on track.

Halls are decked, list is checked, gifts are wrapped. One stocking stuffer for my mom and I am done. Woo! Since it’s just the 4 of us, there isn’t a whole lot to plan. A nice meal for Christmas Eve, the usual for Xmas Day, and then our party on New Years will be a snap thanks to the wonderful appetizers for sale at Costc0. I’m thinking seafood for Xmas Eve….

I think I have talked myself out of attempting to paint the dining room until after the holiday. I have a couple of closets that really need cleaning. Given the balmy weather this weekend, I hope I can talk hub into a bit of organizing in the garage. I still haven’t sent out cards yet, but I don’t do a whole bunch. I’ll work on that this weekend.

I am going to a holiday party Saturday night – I need a food thing and a gift for the (infamous) dirty gift exchange. I lucked out at the office one and got a Starbucks gift card. Nice! I may just take a bottle of wine – who needs stuff laying about their house? And Costc0 frozen food section will come to my rescue…

We are going out of town for the day Saturday to a medieval thing – hub is running the kid’s fighting and I am helping cook. We plan to bail about 4 or so since we have the party back home. I need to get our stuff organized Thursday night – I’m taking hub out for a surprise date Friday night.

Well, that’s about all I know. Have a good one!
