SJ, tons of comfort ~ma for you and yours. Hopefully traffic is kind, so you aren't too late to the TCG family festivities. I would think they would forgiving of tardiness. If not, give em coal!

Thanks everyone. Your support makes everything a little easier. It is going to be very strange not to be with my whole family on Christmas Eve, but at least my uncle seems to be stabilized for now. I have now baked brownie, baked ricotta cookies, and made the sugar free peppermint bark. Now I need to glaze the ricotta cookies, make the sugary peppermint bark, pack, and finish wrapping gifts.

So for today, I've made an enormous pot of chicken veg stew...visited with some of my favorite neighborhood buds and...nothing else!
Blergh. I so wanted to be more motivated this weekend.
Oh, and I treated myself to a nice manicure. It really is pretty.

We gave up on going to the beach tonight. We finished baking and we're watching Love Actually while finishing up wrapping. We'll head out early tomorrow instead.
