Much Still To Be Done Before Christmas

December 17, 2015

 

Trying to always remember the true meaning of Christmas

There are so many things I still need to do before Christmas gets here.  I have about 1/2 of my Christmas cards in the mail and that means 1/2 of them are not in the mail.  I have about 1/2 of my shopping done, leaving 1/2 of it still waiting.  The house is about 1/2 ready, the baking isn't even started, the decorating is about finished.  It looks like I have some busy days ahead.

I got to the office this morning just after 10:00, said "Hello" to Ron, and when he responded to me, I realized I had gotten all the way to work without my Cochlear Sound Processor!  I turned around and drove back home and then again to the office.  A check list may become necessary.

At the office, I spent the day working on a little cleaning and a lot of filing.  Ron was out much of the day so I waited on customers often during the afternoon.  It was a good day.  I cleaned windows and did a little sweeping.  I changed our hours on the signs.  We are now open from 8:30 until 5:00.  I guess we may retire in 30 minute increments.  Previously, we were open 8:15 to 5:15.

Near closing time I started working on a deposit, but didn't allow enough time to finish it, so I will need to do it in the morning.  Ron will be out most of the day tomorrow.  I hope to finish our Christmas catds tomorrow.

At closing time Ron stopped by for just a minute and asked me go on to the house.  He had just had a call that he needed to go by his mom's house.  He met me in a little bit at the house and then in one car, we went to meet our friends to try a different place for supper.  It was OK, but not great and I think we will mark it off our list.

Once we got home, Ron got busy on some jobs he needed to do and I relaxed.  I am going to bed early again.  I slept 10 hours last night and felt good when I got up, but I am tired now.
