Happy End of NaBloPoMo, everybody!

I did it!It is an exceptionally gray and drizzly day here at Butterscotch Acres. The good news is, it’s all Christmas cheer inside. We went out to the tree farm yesterday, and Rockford pulled all most of the decor out of the attic. I seem to be missing a box, but that’s OK. Because the tree is up and decorated, and we’ve been taken over by snowmen. I’ll share photos eventually, if I can get the computer to recognize my camera. (Which it hasn’t been doing. Did I tell you that? Very, very irritating.)

Anyway, hi-ho-diddly-day! I need to do some Christmas-list-making.

Where the day takes you

NaBloPoMo!Today finds me:

  • “Designing” a television unit at Ikea.com. For the new 32-inch television that we do not have. (Yes, a 32-inch screen would be a rather large upgrade for us.)
  • Dreaming about buying a new couch and a new love seat to go with the new TV and entertainment center that we do not have.
  • Not coughing quite as much or as violently. (Win.)
  • Learning that I likely passed my cold on to my sister-in-law and thus regretting my decision to subject my entire family to my germs. I should’ve stayed home.
  • Using better judgment by not going on our previously planned Christmas tree excursion.
  • Listening to Christmas music anyway.
  • Making chili.
