Sent out the money to pay for Kevin's Christmas gift. He already knows what it is, but it's something he wanted.
Got a couple of odds and ends to stuff in the stocking for Tom.
Three boxes left to finish packing that need a ride to the local post office. Some people might think me silly for dropping them off one or two at a time instead of waiting for them to pile up and take them in one big stack. Thing is, if I waited, the seven I already sent would still be waiting to go. It just works out better to toss what's ready into the car for the errand run and go.
Jessica and Aaron's stuff are among those waiting to be sent. Will be working on those this weekend. Have one to go to up north and another goes to points south.
Yesterday, I found two nice surprises in my mailbox, holiday cards from
blackhilllife and
mistralwind.
Cryptic message to
nhyrvana. I hear you, believe me. I suddenly find myself having to preface things that are not 100% my opinion with my opinion in order to avoid people getting on their high horses just to tell me I am all 100% wrong.
I really need to clean out my buddy lists one of these days, there are some people on them that I haven't spoken to in ages, for various reasons, despite having seen them online. I start to hit that send IM button and then realize why I really shouldn't. I could use the reasoning one of the people has in the past, "I've slept since then," but I suppose that really doesn't wash.
A new person has added me to their friends list. Hi to
