I don’t drink. Ever. I just don’t. There’s no reason for it outside of never having come across an alcoholic beverage that actually tastes good to me. I’m also kind of proud that I’ve never been under the influence, in a weird anti-social sort of way.
This stuff though…
This stuff I’ll at least try. It will probably make me want to vomit, but I’ll give it a try. It comes highly recommended by Neil Peart. Obsessed Rush fans will understand why.
It’s here. Christmas Eve. For the first time in 10 years I have the day off. WOOHOO
We’re having some family over tonight. The house is almost clean. The floors need to be swept and mopped and the bathroom needs to be touched up. All of the gifts are wrapped and where they need to be. My beautiful wife is in the kitchen starting on the kielbasa. It smells soooo good.
The weather in New England is supposed to be awful tonight. Be careful out there, all you celebrators. Here’s to Christmas Eve going off without a hitch!
HoHoHo
I came home expecting to clean the dining room but my wife beat me to it. Her amazingness never ceases to amaze me.
My company has swans living at the building in Canton. The building I work in doesn’t have swans, it has a bunch of wild turkeys.
The agenda for today:
Work, including a yankee swap christmas party which unfortunately involves me having to drive to Foxborough this afternoon.
Finish cleaning our bedroom, including putting away all of the clothes I just folded and trying to find a place for the stuff in the basket on top of the cedar chest. No clue. I thought the garage, but that sucker is full.
Clean the dining room after the final present has been wrapped.
Eat… maybe.
Sleep. maybe not.
Lots and lots left to do, but all of it doable and the goal of a clean house on christmas eve is definitely attainable.
HoHoHo
There is still one gift in the house that needs wrapping, and two plus rooms that need cleaning. Not quite there yet.
We have actual jingle bells on our door.
My step son played his first recital on guitar and bass tonight. He was great! He played one song solo on guitar, and another on bass with a band. It was so cool!
On the home front, most of the wrapping is done. Not all, but most. We are closer to being ready for christmas but still have quite a ways to go.
Out to lunch with my lady.
I soooooo over did it…
I just finished wrapping the gifts I picked up for my wife for Christmas. We had a budget for buying for each other and I went waaaaaaaaaay over.
Whoooops.
Sorry, but not really. I love buying stuff for my love, even though it stresses me out like crazy.
