Weekend Bits

Done!

So I finally got my Christmas cards done and mailed on Saturday... woo-hoo! And now my enthusiasm for anything Christmas is pretty much spent... lol

Oh well. I can lay back and relax now. Kinda. My only true obligation before December 25 is wrapping Christmas presents. Mine and Pop's (whenever he gets them), of course. I could still decorate, but it's for Winter... and Winter goes on long after Christmas, so I have time.

Still Cold!

There was still some snow on the ground on Saturday (see my bare backyard below), but mostly melted away by Sunday. No snow since, but it's still friggin COLD. We may get some flurries tomorrow.

Christmas Carol(s)

Mom and I attended our second (and last) Christmas performance for the year on Sunday night: A Christmas Carol... which turned out to be a musical. It was actually kinda nice... a two-in-one special: caroling and a play! But then, mebbe all of the Christmas Carol plays include, well, Christmas carols. I mean, it IS the name of the thing. lol Dunno... I've never seen one before. But it was nice, all the same. :)

Netflix Back-Up

So Mom has picked up a notch in tryin to get me to come over and watch the Netflix movies (and Andromeda) she's had for at least a month now. I was so consumed with getting my cards finished that I couldn't really get away for a while... and then, when I was gonna try to get over there this past weekend, I got sidetracked with the new 3-D Home Design program I've had for at least a year but never installed. Until now.

Every once in a while, I get pinched by the Wishful-Thinking Bug, and suddenly get ideas for different designs for a Dream House... some more modest than others. Well, as soon as I got home from mailing the cards on Saturday, I was so pinched. Which is horrible, considering I'd told Mom I'd try to come over that weekend. I REALLY need to work on my tendancy to get EASILY distracted.

Amway, after workin on the silly thing entirely too long every night this week, (equally shameful behavior in that I'm ignoring my cat, too), I think I've gotten it out of my system for now, and can hopefully go watch movies with Mom this weekend. :)
