'Bushwhacked'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh Mr. S. is it time for toddler bed?
Who is doing work so that tomorrow is not a nightmare of epic proportions for year end closing? This girl. To be fair I did ZERO work on my "work from home day" on Thursday 12/28. So some if this should have been done then. Thank goodness none of it is thinky work, just running reports and filling in spreadsheets, then paying invoices.
Also cleaning off my TiVo waiting for the Rose Bowl parade.
I'm probably going to do some work today. Might as well, because god knows I am not going outside today, where the HIGH is supposed to be 8 degrees.
8 degrees sounds positively balmy to me right now.
Happy New Year!
I need to clean my apartment some, but a lot of what I need to do is bring stuff out to the trash and recycling containers outside, and outside is just not going to happen when it's three degrees out.
Happy new year! Today's big task is getting the tree un-decorated and put away. No idea what the temps are outside, but I won't be there for long today. It's sunny. I foresee a nap in a sunbeam for me this afternoon. (2018 resolution—adopt as many of my cat's good ideas as possible.)
I am also getting the tree undecorated and having my semi-annual, "Oh my god! I have too many ornaments! I have to stop buying ornaments!" freak out.
I am leaving my tree up until at least mid month.
Well, my tv just went out. Nothing else did and a breaker is not tripped. I am going to check the plug it is in, but GD if it is blown. I don't think the tv is even 2 years old.
The tree stays up until Epiphany. I'm not Catholic, I just like the tree. Mine isn't even decorated, except for a string of tinsel. It's got fiber-optic lights in its branches, so it twinkles in colors.
Solidarity, msbelle, I also am doing work-work today. Because if I don't, tomorrow will be a manic panic that isn't pretty. Our print schedules don't take holidays or weekends into account.
I am also keeping the tree up until Epiphany.
I made the bread. It was the right call. It was easy, the house smells delicious, and I get to have happy thoughts of ita to help me ring in the new year.
That sounds like an excellent call.
I had a delightful evening and morning with Polgara and family including an amazing ride home (amazing because I didn't have to take the train), and am going to another party shortly with my mother.
I just helped a neighbor move his gigantic 85 lb. speakers up two flights of narrow stairs. Ended up panting, dizzy, and headache-y afterwards. Getting heavy stuff up to our floor sure seemed easier when I was 38!
