So here I am, nothing new wrapped, no cards written, jewelry is still in pieces.
True, but you got a whole lot of other shit done LIKE A BOSS.
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

I did decide against a Christmas letter this year. It would have boiled down to "More of the same from last year plus stuff I don't want to talk about".
And I have opened my box of cards and I don't like them as much as I did when I bought them. But I'm not going to go out and buy different ones. Snarl.

I managed to put together my new Expedit thing I got at Ikea last night, and am v. proud. Of course, I have not done laundry or put away the PILES AND PILES of clothes on my bed, but whatev'. I'm not sleeping in it tonight, so I can wait until I get home, exhausted, on Wednesday night, right? Right?? Um.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Shoveled snow at work for four hours, because of course the snowblower died (we'd deemed it dead last winter, but new boss...) including the roof of the sunporch because there's a leak. Got home, neighbor lady is shoveling the driveway while her 17 yo daughter is wandering around in her tennis shoes bitching that she's late for work. I wish her parents made her actually take responsibility for making sure she got to work on time in any weather conditions, but that's not why I helped shovel (it's because I use that driveway too).
Did laundry, but I'm good for nothing for the rest of the day. Sprained ankle has me out of shape in more places than just my ankle, I'm realizing.

Shove 'em into an empty laundry basket? Works for me.
I have made beef stroganoff, yay. I still have cheesecake to make, that may have to wait until after the game, or halftime, we'll see how things go. I'm now taking my canning rig on its maiden voyage as a steamer - I think I like it so far, although it's definitely bigger than I need. So it goes.
My hand wash only kitchen items are jealous of your industry, Suzi.

I hope Anne or someone is enjoying this. Because it must look pretty good from the other sideline.
