4 days until Christmas
Dec. 21st, 2005 09:31 amAnd counting. I have a bunch of errands to run this morning and I do have to girth my loins and go into a few places that are going to be slammed today. Of course this is nothing compared to what is going on in New York City. According to a few of my buddies the getting in was fine if you knew how you were doing it. The leaving was the horror show. Apparently they partitioned Penn Station so you have to have your ticket already to get in AND you had to stand in the correct line for your branch. Most people I know ended up on much later trains than they normally did and people were practically sitting in each others laps as well as up and down the aisles. So glad I didn't and don't have to go into the city for a while. I am really hoping they have this sorted out by New Years since that is when Gwen has the concert.
I am wrapping Ariel's gifts this morning and Peter's this evening. I need to get a little more paper and make sure we have enough Hanukkah candles to bring with us on our trip. Except Caroline's Doctor's appointment, I don't have anything scheduled tomorrow so I can pack and get ready with the last little bits that always seem to come up.
Once we get back, I am back to costuming. I have two (well three) costumes to complete for Farpoint. If I can pull this off it will make a lot of people laugh as well as be the first Star Trek costume I think I have ever done. Ariel needs to figure out if she can round up enough of her little buddies to pull off one costume which is super simple except for one prop or if she is going for the more complicated and then I have some more work to do. I am thinking about getting some stuff done for the art show too. I have a couple of ideas that are very different from anything I have done. I may do a couple of test pieces and see if people like them or not.
Winter starts today at 1:35 PM. Happy Winter Solstice to those who celebrate it. Is it me or does this seem late this year? It's probably me.
I am grateful for our mail carrier. She rawks.
