Christmas

Ack! I will surely be glad when Christmas gets here because this "preparation" is making me crazy. Every time I think I'm done, something else comes along and pokes me.

I've just spent the last 20 minutes trying to set up a new bill payee online, only to be told it didn't work. I've changed my access code, added a security number, and still it won't let me add this bill, even though it comes up on my list of acceptable additions.

Now I need to do some baking. I'm making a pistachio cheesecake for Christmas Eve, and it can be made ahead of time, so that's what I will do. But first I need to blog a few more books on eH. I'm waaaaaay behind, and I've got something like 125 to catch up on before the end of the year. *sigh*

Jo and her girls came over yesterday afternoon, and we spent a couple of hours doing our nails. I now have flowers and snowflakes on all my deep pink fingertips. They look kind of cute, but I don't think they're going to stay on too long. Oh well, it was fun.

I bought a new outfit for Christmas! The first surprise was when the size 12 pants were too big! The second surprise was when the size 10 pants actually fit, and Hardy gave me a compliment on how the outfit looked on me. The top is royal blue with a few tiny pleats at the front of the rounded neckline, and a tiny black button at the top of each pleat. The third surprise was when I went to pay for it. The top was 50% off the regular price, and the pants were 30% off. Normally, I hate surprises, but these kinds of surprises I can handle. Every day even. . .

I probably won't be back here until after Christmas because I don't have any more PHS books to blog right now.

Have a good one!
