Potpourri of stuff

Gleaned today. Way too much bread, so we went to St. Vinnie's and, saints be praised, Santa was there too. That meant lots of people there to take advantage of the back alley/outta the back of a car bread line! It felt so good to watch these folks take armloads of carbohydrates home. None of the mushy teary-eyes sniffling, "Bless you, Batman" sort of thing. But it was fun to see the eyes widen when I said, "Do you want more?"

DH to be loved on today. The digital camera decided to be a shit and give us a longer-than-a-momet panic attack by not opening. I like to believe I can channel the energy of the Universe and heal things. Maybe it's a load of crap, but my ego sure loves the thought. Whether I made a difference or not, it does work now. Also - if my squids ever sink so low as to read this blog, you all are on notice - no more movies with the digital!

The Girl cut of her $20 haircut today. DH blew a second gasket about it. What with family pictures in Yeehawland after christmas and all. Called the expensive stylist with a clue and asked to "squeeze us in" before we leave. If my squids ever survive the first reading of this blog, ya'll are on second notice - leave the fucking scissors alone!

We are trying to spend our day cleaning the house as if we are having relatives come over. Well, maybe not the bathroom, but laundry, vacuuming up the spruce needles off the floor, making changing sheets, etc. If my squids are able to pay the therapist's fees after reading this blog - ya'll are on third notice - don't walk on the floor!

I'd love to bake a buttload of pumpkin and banana bread and finish off the kahlua. Maybe elf around town and drop some off to beloved friends. DH and the Girl have dashed off to buy a new guitar case for DH. He would love to take it to Yeehawland for the holidays. I think that would work very nicely. Provided we can keep the family to one checked and one carry-on piece of luggage a person. As I long ago realized, the only way for us to travel light is to leave the kids at home!

I imagine I should sign off this entry as I need to make some visible improvement in the house sitch. No, wait! I got my christmas vulva today! I'll post pics of it later! Gotta love that DH of mine. You know, he needs his own new name. How about Love of my Life - LOML? Yeah.
