Christmas Count Down

I know I posted something on Tuesday but I see not a trace of the post now! This is too strange. Oh well. I took today off and tomorrow is the office Christmas lunch. Everyone is bringing in something and basically eating all morning then leaving a little after 12:00 or so the plan goes. So nothing is getting done and people just milling round making sure the phones are covered if someone from Admin calls. I spent the day chasing down inner tubes for my manual wheelchair—I punctured a tire last night. I also got some work done on the van so the day was productive. The city is experiencing a “ heat” wave so it was great being out and getting the last minute things done for the holiday. I have a few things left to do then I will be done as much as I am going to get done. I may have to chase round a little Christmas but that is cool I’ll have the time. I am taking all of next week off. So I am feeling almost smug. I am a little nervous about how to make the rounds and see all the families Christmas—particularly the ancients but I suppose everything will work out. It usually does.

I don’t have anything for staff maybe I’ll blow it off this year. I did get CC ( CC is my office partner and very cool.) Maybe I’ll get the rest of the staff something when the after Christmas sales start.

So far things have been so hectic we have done little fun Christmas things, concerts, movies etc. We did go out o east last Saturday. Hopefully things will begin to slow down now. I think I’ll skip the Nut Cracker and the Messiah this year instead watch Scrooged Holiday Inn and It’s A Wondeul Life. I want to take Dianne out to eat at least one maybe two more times before the New Year. Maybe, even take some of the kids out as well.

I hope all of your Christmas plans are going on as planned and that all your schedules are met.
