where is everybody?
I went to the grocery store with my mom, got Chinese for dinner, and then went over to my sister's house, where I got piled on by my nieces and their dog (as you can see on FB). After that, I logged into my Stanford class to do some homework.
I was catching up with my sister on our ridiculous family. And nope, I will not be back in New England I guess! Though I'm voting this means he should find a job in Seattle.
I do not seem to have a natural talent for piping melted chocolate into recognizable shapes. Can't say I'm surprised.
Two candies completed, which was all I really needed to finish tonight. Whew.
I am awake bc I rolled over wrong and ouch. Physics Therapy (eta that's Physical Therapy but ima leave it bc its funny) is kicking my ass you guys.
also cannot figure out why my scheduled cc payment didn't go through.
Meara that's a lot of drama. I'm
Gud, I hope your back feels better.
Sparky, last day b4 break!
msbelle now I want to come make your house all festive.
Ouch, hippocampus. I hope you can get some more rest while the ouch subsides.
Wow, meara. That's a lot.
Yikes indeed! May things be much less dramatic today.
Aw, msbelle, that's a bummer.
I love the festive and stuff and neither of the boys were into it. It was a super joy to have my new daughter this year because she loves to decorate and did the tree and house with me.
I scheduled a 90 minute planning meeting for this morning, and I have NO INTEREST in running it! At least I only have to run half, but ugh. I'm tired of being in charge. I guess that's a sign about what I should look for in my next position, huh?
-t, my mother would routinely put presents in "safe" places and then forget where ... and sometimes about the present itself. Which is why I sometimes received sweaters for my birthday (in May) and odd stuff in December. I think it's a family failing - I was in the closet and found a shawl and warm scarf I'd forgotten about and my grandmother once put her engagement ring in a "safe" place and never found it again.
I put my dad's Christmas gift someplace safe one year, and spent a goodly part of Christmas morning tearing my room apart trying to find it. I did, eventually.
I tore up my house Monday night trying to find the gift card I had gotten for my sister and then put in a "safe" place. My roommate was like "you can probably call them up and find out if it's been used or get a new one" and I was like "no, I know it's either here SOMEWHERE or I managed to throw it out thinking it was junk mail because it was in an envelope!" Luckily I eventually found it.
