Even though the night before I had a strange time with my ache caused either from indigestion or strain, I managed to take down most of my autumn decor yesterday and to make tuna noodle casserole from scratch (I had no ‘cream of’ anything soup, so I had to make a roux). I am good today, but Bri left a note that said he was awake at 4:30 feeling jumpy and not himself. Maybe we had a little bug? This time of the year, you never know.
I opened up a can of worms the other evening (Sunday) when I decided to sort through the ‘paper chase’ bag. I have a huge plastic quilt bag of receipts, bill stubs, etc.that was just plopped in my bedroom. I would pay the monthly bills and stick the papers in the bag. You can imagine why I had to take on this task-the bag was going to burst at the seams! I think I am half way through it-yeah! When I should be decorating, I am sorting through papers. It’s just something I needed to do-I am a neat freak when the mood strikes. If we need to take a look at a year’s worth of Sean’s student loan stubs-they are all together now. Makes sense to me.
Today, I’ll probably go to the store. Tomorrow I want to get my Christmas cards started. I made one last year and will take the new to the copy center. As a hint, I used a really old family photo (one of my favorites) as the card’s design.
I’m going to do a little cyber shopping now. Here’s a photo of Shirley Temple I found to put you in the holiday mood.
