Mid week, thankfully
Does your bubblegum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight? Lord, I don't know why that popped into my head! I spent some time just chilling out yesterday, then hubby built a fire in the fireplace as it got cooler (60 degrees!) and I enjoyed watching that; it was a beautiful fire. I love to lose myself in thought, dreams, ponderings while watching the flames; then later, as the fire dissipates into smoldering embers and I like to watch it slowly put itself out.
I spent some time perusing through some of my favorite cookbooks (I favor the community cookbooks put together by the women's clubs, local charities, over the professional books; you can usually find so many interesting and good recipes). I'm making either a sour cream pound cake or a chocolate chip pound cake for work, as well as making them some chocolate covered cherry cookies, and that's it. I stressed and stressed over this, because I didn't know how I was going to get them down there, and I wanted to take them today, however, one of the bosses is working from home today, so I stressed and stressed how I could get them over there Thursday since I have appointments to go to... then decided, hey, I'll have hubby drop them off EARLY before he goes to work. There's somebody there who works the grave yard shift and she can put the goodies out for everybody. Then I done. I'm not doing this with the proper frame of mind, I've gotten to the point of really resenting one of the persons with whom I work, but it never hurts to create the illusion of "good will" even when you don't have it, does it?
We've yet to buy and decorate a tree, I think that may be on tap for next week, as I like to keep it up until the 1st of January; since we get a real cut tree I always think it's better to put it up later so it won't be so dried out by the 1st. I guess we'll start moving furniture around to best accommodate the tree, as the livingroom is so small, and so packed with furniture we have to usually relegate a chair or ottoman to another room.
I gotta have my first cup of coffee now. Take care all.
