I was making cranberry bread for the relatives day before yesterday and ruined it. Nick's been asking me to make a pie I made kind of by accident when he was about 10. I was going to make it part of his Christmas present (and give him the instructions and the springform pan 'cause he's all getting into cooking), but, thinking of my inability to make cranberry bread and not ruin it, I made him a pie kit. All the ingredients (except water and salt) and the pan. I think it will make him happy. His girlfriend is getting a pretty bracelet, and both are getting bath bombs because it's not Christmas for Nick without bath bombs from his mom.

Kara helped me choose the scents. We have mint chocolate chip, lilac with other stuff I've already forgotten (but Kara says smells like a new kind of fruit and is now her favorite), white tea with pear, peppermint and green tea, clary sage and bergamot, and basil and lime, some with glitter and some without. Nick told me his girlfriend likes food scents, but he didn't tell me what kind of food scents (and I didn't think to ask), but I think we're covered.

I'm ready for a nap.

Edit: That all came out kind of random. Sorry about that. Definitely nap time. (Can't, have cooking to do, but want.)

Nap, Deena! Nap!

Oh, you temptress!

Deena!

Hey you! I've been thinking about you a lot. I was wondering if my bad cranberry bread somehow rubbed off on you.

Hi Deena! ::smishes::

I love the smishes!

Well, it looks like it was a bank error, not our payroll guy's error, which ok, But yeah. Still fucked.

Aims, do you need some Paypal to get you through til it's fixed? E me.

I LOVE abrien. What a marvelous gift, i got NINE FULLL HOURS of sleep last night. it was like.....normal weekend! I checked my phone and ocmputer and yes....absolutely no sign of an ambien-related shennangicans. In fact, no sign that i ever even rolled over in bed. And no wacky crazy dreams. I smudged my room heavily with high quality acoma sage before bed and it seems to have done it's duty quite well.

tonight i shall try just ambien without the oxy and see if i can rely on only one addiction-causing drug to get through the night.

But really, last nights tally was : 1 naprosyn, 1 ambien, 1 oxycodone, and ZERO wakenings to sit and ice and redose. That'a a marvelous improvement for my mood. I think i might even be able to wrap presents today! Good thing....
