mac was back to school today and the roads are mostly clear, only bridges remain icy and the only ones I have to cross are little tiny creek ones just a smidgen of the normal road.
Work. I do not want to be here. shocker, I know. I was kinda getting productive last night at home - washed dishes, cleaned off the kitchen counter, got the first Holiday cards up, got a load of laundry in, swept the entry. I feel like I could have continued some of that this morning if I could have gone home after dropping mac off.
There is really no reason I could not work from home on days like today when we are not shipping, but this place is way too old school for that, plus I wouldn't be here to cover the phones for the men. grr.
Jesse, you should adopt the New York tradition of the bagel coat, ie a coat long enough that you can run out to get the bagels on Sunday morning without getting dressed.
Ha! Love it. Most of my inside clothes aren't that bad, and would be fine with a coat and shoes, but the Christmas-patterned pjs and fuzzy slippers are a little much. I will be That Lady on the street!
BE THAT LADY! Embrace it! start practicing your fist shaking. damn shame you cannot get a cat or two.
I was afraid it would be icy and hard to get to the airport today, but apparently it was all just a scare tactic. No ice.
I am off work today! It was -2.5 and still dropping when we woke up this morning, and as a result, the tires are unhappy. It's possible they're fine, but they did not improve with the first half-hour of commute, so we turned around before we left civilization. The SO dropped me off home and headed out to the tire shop. The dog and I are curled up in front of the woodstove.
I have reconciled some work charges and taken some orders, but most importantly I have ordered Christmas flowers for people. YAY!
My grandmother is not doing well and is praying for God to take her, like multiple times last night. We all just hope she remains not in pain and passes peacefully. This may be a rough Christmas. She is 100 and has had a good long life and like I said is not in pain (more than the normal she is 100 pain). Everyone knows she is ready and no one in the family wants her to struggle anymore. still.
Oh, that's sad, msbelle; even if she's not in pain, it's hard on the family. Peace to you all.
We are getting a truly awesome orange & purple sunrise.
I saw that on the train. Unforunately it gave way to a whole mess of white stuff. At least it doesn't seem to be accumulating.
Still. My best wishes for your grandmother and your family, msbelle.
