OK now. A word of advice to you all. If you have to pee really bad, DO NOT blow your nose.
And that's all I'll say about that.
Last day of work today. Presents and cookies abound!!! I'll take the presents but keep passing on the cookies, fudge, candy, etc. Oh, I hope I can keep this up. I've not been on my scale for a couple days but think I'm doing well. (Did I just jinx myself???) Actually, with all this congestion, etc. I just don't have much of an appetite. Hmmm.... new weight loss method??
Today I'm wearing the socks that Rich bought me as a gag gift. They have bells on them so now I jingle when I walk. It's funny because they're covered and a bit muffled by my pants and, when I walk by, people keep stopping and looking around because they hear bells but don't know where they're coming from.
Ah, well. Tis the season to be silly!
Today, the woman we all call "the old witch" isn't in and it's just so much more pleasant around here. However, I've done some soul searching and have decided that one of my new year's resolutions is going to be to try and be nicer to her. She's obviously just old and bitter and petty and insecure and I should just feel sorry for her. Well, that's the plan anyway. I may blow that one really quick though. I just don't have the patience for meanness and pettiness.
Sam, nice to hear from you. I've always wondered what it would be like to have Christmas in the middle of summer. Most of us here think of snow and cold weather when we think of the holidays. 10 days off sounds wonderful either way!!!
Sherry, I like your family Christmas card. I keep trying to talk Rich into a nice, casual picture card but he won't do it! Camera shy, I guess. Humph.
Bought a few more Christmas presents last night. Just little things for Rich from the grocery store. Then I lapsed into panic when I realized I'd forgotten to pick up the gift I ordered from the Italian market for my dad. They were closed so I have to get there by 6PM tonight or no gift for dad!!!!
Pretty stupid of me.
Now I have a mission!
Well, I've been interrupted about 5 times since I started typing so I'd better go. Traffic was light this morning and phones have been quiet so far. Hoping the company president will make his usual rounds at about lunchtime and start sending people home.
Gotta run.
Hope you have a good one!
Love, Jo.
