Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. The sky over the woods (waaaay back behind my house) is just turning pink. It's clear now, but clouds will start to roll in by afternoon; but it'll be low 70s, so still a nice day.
Yesterday: We did go to the Flea Market as planned. We took one small "side trip" when we discovered another craft show ... an excellent idea, as I got some terrific and unusual Christmas gifts! We also found what we were looking for at the Flea Market, and didn't stay too long. After an afternoon of shopping (and constantly feeding my friend's 13 y/o son! LOL!), we came back here to chill a bit ... Maggie provided entertainment. :)
Today: It's back to work again. I dread seeing how much has piled up on my desk ... but eventually someone else will have to help deal with it! LOL! I only work today and tomorrow ... lovely to have so much accumulated vacation! Tonight I will once again try to catch up the bits and pieces of cleaning I've missed, before Dancing comes on! :)
Today is "America Recycles Day" ... "George Spelvin Day" ... "I Love to Write Day" ... "National Bundt Day" ... "Dynasty Day (Belgium)" ... "Republic Day (Brazil)" ... "Shichi-Go-San (Japan)".
