Busy, Busy, Busy


Once again I am in the midst of a chaotic December. Work of course is so busy and when you add to that all the other holiday obligations time is short. So of course I did what anyone in this situation would do. I decided to have a party last weekend. I love to entertain and was happy to have a houseful of people. It was a bitterly cold night but my house was warm and full of conversation and laughter. The white bean soup and chili were a hit as well as the very popular bottles of wine my friends brought. Other friends brought me a lovely pair of earrings that I cannot stop wearing. I think my other earrings are getting jealous!

The party also gave me an excuse to decorate my house. Stockings were hung, tree was trimmed and it looked quite nice. I love walking into my house and smelling the tree. Puts me right in the holiday spirit.

I am tying to have the happiness from last week carry me over during this very stressful week but it's been difficult. Right now I just want to get my work project done, presents wrapped and get through Christmas with a minimum of drama. Fingers crossed!
