Tree-trimming

attempting to plan a tree-trimming get-together in the next weekend or so. christmas this year is going to be a tad bit different than it has been the past few years so i thought having some egg nog and friends and puppies and decorations might help to swing things in the right direction.

of course tiny will probably eat the tree.

and kaya will eat the tinsel.

but it all makes for merry fun in the long run.

especially sparkly dog poop.

really.

want to trim a tree with me?

my soundtrack currently sounds like this and it makes me happy.

ps- do not forget to vote on where i should move and what i should be. for those of you who do not know me “housewife” is NOT a correct answer. *grin*

fruit cake or death?

Life

you heard me. ack!

life is so very strange.

okay, past week had parents in town. YAY!

then saturday went to kansas city to do what i do best: wander around aimlessly with jamme and austin.

bought birthday present for Mart at his request. waved and was off. that is, after a great lunch with 6 great guys at ‘john’s big deck’.

came home.

half an hour later was out the door to go out on the town. no shower. yes, i smelled icky. jamme and austin will both back this up. was hijacked and had to go without proper preparation.

collided with bryan at the bar. he had (earlier this week) turned drinks this next tuesday into dinner. as in: he wants to take ME out for DINNER for HIS birthday. okay. bad. wrong. thought we were hanging out as friends. nonononono. when the hell did THIS happen? wtf do i do? how do i do this politely?

and breathe.

spent night playing phone/text tag with bryan(blah) and bryan(yay!). yes, two bryans. very confusing, you do not have to tell me. avoiding bryan(b) and trying to talk with bryan(y!) took up most of my night. as did an invitation to join a group activity in which i was not keen on. not keen at all. several other calls ensued which i deemed not necessary to answer.

i remember now why i do not go out during the school year. i have no patience for mindless gibbering. i would rather stay home and dance in the living room with april, alicia, jamme, austin and the puppies.

ah, speaking mindless gibberish. that is what i felt i was doing today. such a goof am i. i spent more than seven hours on the phone. me. i hate the phone. seven hours. and i felt like speaking for another seven hours. do not ask, i do not even know how to begin to explain. sometimes things happen for a reason, right? right?

goofy i know, but this is how i am feeling and this is the current soundtrack to my mind.

Thanksgiving ends

i could cry.

yes, we have hit the wall. that moment when you realize the visit is over, the parents are gone and it is just you left in a big empty house.

to combat that i have gone into full housework guru mode.

well, i started the dishes and the laundry. does that count?

listening to this also makes me feel better

i will be posting again later tonight if you are interested. of course, if you were not interested in reading what i write then why are you still reading this?
________________
i actually have an extensive to-do list for today (yeah, right):

laundry (yay)

dishes (double yay)

long hot bath (to help my sore muscles which do not remember how painful dancing in three inch heels can be)

start a new book. (haven’t decided which one, yet, as i have a whole bunch of old scifi ones that Mart and Luke picked up for me)

bills (blah, but it has to be done)

homework (only two weeks of school left! ack!)

the usual (and not-so-usual?) Sunday phone calls

i also have to figure out how to get out of going to dinner tuesday night. any suggestions?
______________

i never said my life was interesting.
