Big Sunday!

Well I hope everyone reading this had a fine Sunday. It was a good one here. Have you ever noticed how nice things look at Christmastime? I would love to say that people are nicer and more polite (they're not) and that you can stop and smell the roses a little more (nope it's too hectic this time of year). But really, I think we need to MAKE the time to enjoy the season. So make a vow to yourself that you'll take a little time ot enjoy the GOOD THINGS going on around you and not rushing past them on the way to completing your next task.

I'll list my five things:

1- It was TGIO for the nanowrimo group. That is Thank God It's Over party. We held it at Callahan's in Mira Mesa and all the winners (those who wrote 50,000 words in 30 days) showed up to celebrate. Many made a pledge to keep writing and even meet for write-ins in the future.

2- The Chargers won 24-21 in chilly Buffalo, New York against the surging Bills. Dick Jauron's Bills made a game of it and it came down to the Chargers having to recover an onside kick to seal the deal. They didn't but the kick didn't travel the required ten yards- so the Chargers got the ball. Good job Chargers!

3- I completed the family christmas letter and I am beginning to hand address the envelopes to send them out. I'm trying something new and sending the card via e-mail to some distant friends. We'll see how it goes--- either I'll be seen as (1)_saving the environment and trees or (2) just cheap. I'll be happy if it's #1.

4- BMO and I went out got some hot chocolate from 7/11 and drove around to see the Christmas lights. Candy Cane Lane was already lit up and wonderful.

5- The laundry is getting caught up! Yes- it's a simple thing but very satisfying and pleasurable when it is completed!
