Merry Christmas Doug! 40 people are a LOT! I think I'd get antsy.
I haven't been around much either Cathy. Work has been absolutely insane this past week. But, I had an exceptionally good week, so can't complain. But, I am tired as heck.
Last nite the darned coughing woke me up repeatedly, and then the alarm went off at 5:30. I forgot to shut it off from yesterday so it decided to make my day......
Holy cow the grocery store was absolutely mobbed today. I probably forgot half the stuff on my mental list because it was so mobbed in there....can't focus with that many bodies fighting for a square inch of space. However, if I don't have it now, I'm not gonna get it. I'm not going near a store until well after Christmas. I've got veggies for the veggie tray, humus and dips, meat and cheese for that one, shrimp for the spoiled hubby AND I remembered the lemons this year, and a lovely standing rib roast for dinner. That's it for food. We don't need another darned thing.
I think in the morning I'll do some Christmas wrapping and get that out of the way. I finished the tail end of the shopping last night, other than the marrow bones I picked up for the boys today. My little tree is still naked, think I'll get the stuff out and let DH go to it. I have no spirit for decorating this year. Zip. And, still haven't figured out where the heck I put the Christmas place mats and stuff. Hmmmm.
Thankfully, I'm off until next Friday. Everyone else, except for me and the other guy who works this area started vacation on Friday morning. We had the papers to drop for our clients, since our paper comes out on Friday mornings. We'll just take next Friday morning off I guess. No paper on the 27th so no need to get up early and take them around. I really NEED a few days off. Then we get all of NY Eve and of course NY Day off. Going to make for a really screwy week though. But, perhaps MY batteries will recharge, and with any luck I'll get my voice back.
