The Holidays are Coming!
It’s that time of year again, the time eat, drink, shop and be merry with friends and family. The signs are becoming more obvious year after year. Christmas decorations being put out in stores immediately after Halloween?! Crazy! For me, it’s not really time until after Thanksgiving, at the earliest. I’m not saying you can’t get started on shopping for presents earlier, but come on, no decorations on Nov. 1st!! I have actually started my shopping, even sent one present to the receiver, but it was a combination birthday/Christmas present (no nagging about that, people!) of little things I see for him during the year. The “I won’t hurt you… Much” t-shirt is perfect for him, as is the Jesus packing tape and Nun-zilla (both sacreligious, just like him). I bought a necklace for another friend who is always wearing cute ones. I bought it from a co-worker’s sister who has her own jewelry business and makes some absolutely beautiful pieces, I even bought a necklace for myself at the same time (grin). Her site is a bit out of date, but you should check it out at WayJazzyJewels.com and if you don’t see something you like, she can make something else for you to go with that special outfit. I’ve also got plans for other gifts going about in my mind, but can’t leave too many hints or my friends might figure out what I’m getting them, if they ever read the blog, lol. My co-workers are putting up the holiday decorations on their cubicles, so I guess it’s time to pull mine out, gotta remember that tomorrow, if I’m able to wake up after tonight’s Yelp Holiday party.
Breakfast: My usual oatmeal with dried fruit and nuts, with 1 bottle of water
Mid-morning Snack (okay, it’s actually lunch time): Honeydew, cantaloupe, watermelon, pineapple, strawberries and a blueberry muffin top, with 1 bottle of water
Lunch: It was 3pm by the time I ate lunch, so willpower was low. Had part of the office catered lunch from Specialty’s, Turkey-Cranberry sandwich, sea salt chips and a cookie, plus some asparagus and strawberries from one of the other team’s catered lunches
Emotional Outlook: In a good mood, the Yelp Holiday party is tonight and I’ve been looking forward to it for weeks
Physical Outlook: Sore from my workout two nights ago. Sort of glad that I didn’t make it to the gym last night because Jung had to work, I was exhausted!
Just got assigned to a new project and it’s going to be big, but at least the O/T will be worth it.
