Good Friday morning! It's 8 am and I am sitting at my desk getting ready to face the day. I have a fairly light day planned but we all know how that goes. Actually, it was a fairly easy week because the doctors were either on vacation or in training all week so no clinics. That gave me time to catch up on paperwork and just breathe for a bit.

This weekend is my big push toward holiday preparedness. I have done some shopping but will do the bulk tomorrow and finish up on Sunday. Grocery shopping first tonight and then dinner and some holiday shopping with Pk. Somewhere during the next two days, the laundry will get done and the house will get cleaned and the baking will start. I might find some time to sit and knit but then maybe not. That's ok. I don't mind a busy weekend. I have lists and lists of lists. I love a good list. I have gift lists, cookie lists, general baking lists, Christmas dinner lists, lists of which store to buy which gift in....the list is endless! (and now the word "list" sounds funny to me).

So, with a deep breath and a power bar for extra energy, here we go. Catch you on the flip side!

I have been foiled by multiple doctor's appointments, vomit watch, and now the weather: we're expecting two snowstorms this weekend. I just hope I can get to the market in between them to get fixins for Christmas dinner. Sigh. I hate having stuff to do at the last minute, but really, this is so not my fault!

Happy Sunday!  I am sitting here working on my sweater made with the cashmere yarn my husband gave me for my birthday last year. I’m further...
