I cleared tables a wedding in town at 6:30, our church is catered.
Sometimes I think I am a 70 year old trapped n a 40 year old body. I LOVE these type of events and working at them. I have all my life. When I was younger I lived like a rock star. Partied very hard. I would be out dancing on tables til the sun came up, go home and shower and go to the nursing home with my Grandma and do crafts with the old folks.
I LOVE serving tables.Who the heck likes serving tables. The catering crew from out church are all in their 70’s& 80’s, there are a few in their 60’s and then ME.
I relate better to this age group and up better then any other.

We have a potluck after church and then I really must tidy up this house.

Mornin" Schatzi! Your decoarations sound perty.

Good morning, keeners! It's just gorgeous out there right now - big puffy flakes! The Girls just came in all spotted - doing their reverse Dalmatian act. The good thing about snow is that it doesn't leave muddy paw prints all over.

Schatzi, I'm glad the tree is finally at your preferred state of perfection! I am still planning to have one of those pre-lit ones - I even donated the old one to the Long Horn so I'm committed now.

Hollyhock, I love serving at Church suppers and have since I was a pre-teen so it's not an old lady thing. Of course I didn't have a rock star lifestyle back then. :lol: I was planning to be an empress.

I am indulging in a Church skip this morning. I think a soak in the tub will do Knee and me more good. Knee slept pretty well last night until about 3 AM when she woke up *****ing about needing more Tylenol3. Can you tell I am divorcing myself from my physical self?

Today I need to make some decisions about Christmas shopping. I think I could drive to town but the thought of hobbling around stores scares me. It may be time for one of those wheelchair-cart thingies. On the other hand, it could be a complete gift card Christmas and I know I can order online and have delivery. I may do that for the gifts to go out West to Nanaimo. It just seems too impersonal. However, Christmas is not about gifts!

Avon Magnolia bubbles this morning and a cup of coffee while I soak. I feel so decadent!

Good Morning Chicks:)

Well, I've got my city design all planned out in my head; now I just need to finish putting it down on paper. I got up in the wee smalls and worked for a few hours, but then I got so exhausted I was shaking - no good trying to draw a map while shaky! So I went back to bed around 7 or 8 and slept until after noon. I got some more done while DS napped; I'll stay up late and finish it tonight. I need to hand it in tomorrow (it's bigger than I'd want to try to mail), so I won't have long to finish it in the morning. DS's daycare lady is taking him tomorrow in addition to his usual days (so nice!!), so I won't have to drag him along to the campus. I'll pick up my textbooks for next quarter at the same time. Then I'll come home, take my Britlit final, and that will be it! I'll be all done! Life can return to normal for a few weeks (normal? what is that??)!

DH is making dinner :chef: tonight (isn't he a sweetie? :love: ) - he's grilling T-bones. Lucky me, he is a good cook. He also watched Alex and did his best to keep him quiet while I slept. I have the best husband on earth! As soon as the quarter is done and I can breathe a little, I'll have to plan something nice for him :hug: (a day in his workshop, maybe).

Right at this moment, DH is preparing to cook some mushrooms to go with the steaks, and DS is dancing :dancer: in the most adorable manner to Daniel Amos. I'm such a lucky wife and mommy! :cloud9:

HKO: These are the moments in life to treasure.. take the time to enjoy darlin'!

Good Night ya'll
 

Wow, I sure haven't done much surfin' lately. My oldest child flew in and surprised me on Thanksgiving day and spent the last 10 days here. It was sooo nice having her here. She's like my soulmate, 10 years ago you couldn't have convinced me that would happen. She's an OR nurse in Atlanta, I get to see her 2-3 times a year and that's not enough. Anyhoo, she left this morning to fly back home....boohoo. Now, maybe my life will get back to whatever normal is......................:?:

Sounds like everyone had a nice weekend and getting their holiday stuff underway. As soon as I get a research proposal done and pathophysiology studying done, then I can take a deep breath and plunge into the rush of the season. Our church is having a family christmas party on Tuesday night. They asked my hubby and me to be Mr and Mrs Claus...............hmmmm, I wonder if they are saying something about my size...........kidding, it should be fun.

Well, I'm off to hit the sheets. I have a full day planned tomorrow. Hugs to all.
