Hmm, maybe I'll try the Nordstrom Rack on Monday. Certainly not going there the weekend after Christmas!
We have had a nice time with the family. Took my nephews and little niece to the steam train in the park, and out for pizza, and then climbing at my gym. Got to show off my climbing moves. I should have crashed early but I was sitting up late reading fic (not even Yuletide!).
So much Yuletide: I have dozens of tabs open and it's kind of overwhelming.
On the subject of wine, I buy a LOT. I've become the kind of person who has two cases of wine in the closet at all times, just in case I need to bring wine to someone's house. It's useful but also kind of dangerous.
brenda, I hope the extraction goes smoothly and as painlessly as possible.
DCJ, all my sympathies to you and your family.
I like my NYDJs.
Pray for me, I am inviting people over NY day. WHy yes, I do still have gaping holes in my walls from termite damage, but I just do not care. Despite the exhaustion, cooking all for Christmas made me feel good and I want to be more social, so I am initiating it.
Yuletide! I miss LJ because everybody would be reporting in on their Yuletide work and gifts.
It allowed me to be fandom-adjacent in a way that seems to have disappeared.
Good one, msbelle!
Praise Jesus, my parents are finally going to get me a cable box. Next to see about the actual cables.
I got my best gift today -- Stephen took the kids up to see his dad, and I have the whole place to my self till Monday.
ooooh! Jealous of the quiet!
I thought about inviting people over for NY, but ugh. So much work.
I should clean out the kids' room today, but also, so much work. Don't want.
I am going to go wild and do crazy things, like ... a jigsaw puzzle! And take a long bath!
Bless McPhee, my place stays pretty clean, so I am not going to do too much for having people over, just pile some stuff in the guest room.
I think I should probably take the big tree down and maybe just leave up the two small ones until the Kings come.
I actually think this is exactly what I need to kick some things into high gear, like rearranging some rooms.
right now I am at that horrible place of refreshing the evite page every 2 seconds, because I am convinced no one will come, because I smell and they do not like me.
