Good morning! It's a gorgeous morning! It's clear and the sun shining brightly. It's cold ... but after all, it's "officially" winter tomorrow. I do hope all my friends are in nice warm houses!!
Yesterday was productive to the point that I *think* I have all shopping finished (except a few groceries, but there'll always be "just one or two more things" that I forgot at the grocery store! LOL!). I didn't get a lot else done, because I spent way too long in one store, just wishing and drooling. :) It was a lot of fun.
Today I have a few of those boring things to catch up, a tiny bit more baking I want to do, and some gift wrapping. Then, I hope to ride out to my sister's house to deliver some gifts. I hope someone will be home! :) And tonight, I have a few things to do for taking to work tomorrow for a department party.
There are 4 days left until Christmas!!
Today is "Cathode-Ray Tube Day" ... "Mudd Day" ... "UN International Human Solidarity Day".
