MERRY EVE



Went to a leisurely breakfast and made one final grocery stop for essentials. Booze and ice, well I said essentials. Though he cooks a fantabulous dinner Christmas Day, a little lubrication just makes the candles burn brighter don't you think?

Have to eat a prediction, but in the best way. The Legislature did manage to pass the heating assistance bill before they scurried off for their multi-week solstice break. One good and necessary act in the midst of some pretty coal-deserving ones this year. Well they have to look at themselves in the mirror each day, hope they can deal.

Exercise club was packed this am with all my favorites and a few new ones, who basically get in my way! The only elliptical was next to, oh no, stinky man! Well now at least I'm happy that my allergies block up some of my smelling abilities so I was able to exercise next to him calmly and not knock him off his machine. Naval comtemplator has now become another Chatty Cathy! Who knew? She was merely an oddity before, now she has joined the coffee club in the am. Chatting people up who are changing their shoes, chatting people up working out, chatting to the voices only she can hear. Double arghhh.

Final thoughts: House is clean and cozy. Decorations are up and beautiful. Presents wrapped and under the tree. Sun is shining. My family will all be together. As they say it doesn't get much better than that. See we 99% don't ask for much. Even popped another $10 in the red kettle this am though I already sent a nice check. I'm mellowing out and about freakin' time too!
