Madly, passionately, head-over-heels in love with her_poohbare. We don't cam, chat or IM. Don't ask. If I don't know you from the forum, chat or status, I won't accept your friend request. I prefer my friend list to contain actual friends. Beware: I'm moody.

I am NOT cut out for a life of crime. I totally overpackaged a particular item and "disguised" it as laundry detergent. It's a piss poor disguise at that - completely amateur (how NN-ish!) - but it made me feel better. A professional smuggler I am not. Go ahead. Laugh. I am. The customs forms are filled out and the last of the boxes are going to the post office this morning. YAY! | ||||||

All the packages have been taken to the post office except the three international packages and the one for Happy. WHEW! Break time. I absolutely need to cut back next year and just stick to local folks (she says for about the tenth year in a row). lol | ||||||

I start packing up the boxes tomorrow for shipping. Only one thing left to get, and that's the booze for NB c/o HH. I should be able to get the first bunch of goodies out in the mail on Monday. WOOHOO! | ||||||

Yeah, so I'm working in the kitchen when Poohbare wakes up. He stumbles in searching for coffee and asks what's on the day's agenda. I cheerfully state "packing fudge!" The poor man. He was still half asleep. He blinks at me a few times before realizing I have trays of fudge on the counter, containers, and plastic wrap. I dunno why he mumbles to himself. | ||||||

Last night was our office Christmas party. I wanted to surprise Poohbare, so I'd gotten a new outfit, shoes, etc. It took a bit of time to get my hair and make-up "just so", but when I stepped in front of him and saw the look on his face, it was definitely well worth the effort. When he looks at me like that, I completely melt. (I think he likes me!) )) | ||||||

Well, the date's been changed. Pooh's last day at the old job was supposed to be tomorrow and he'd be home for good effective tomorrow night. Due to circumstances beyond anyone's control, there are still some things to be dealt with there and his boss won't sign off on a release for the transfer until the end of next week - the 16th. BUT... he talked to his new boss today who informed him that he wants Pooh to be well rested and ready to dive into the new job, so he's gonna get the last two weeks of the year off, with pay. He's got a definite end date at the old job and a definite start date at the new job. I guess I can't grumble about that too terribly much, now can I? Silly fools. Of course I can! (but I'll try to keep it to a minimum) | ||||||

My son turns 22 today. 22.... that boggles my mind. He and his girlfriend are moving out next month. It is now definite. They've been trying to figure out what they'll need in the way of furniture and what is available to swipe from her parents' house and here. I've already ordered a set of pots/pans/skillets, plates, and good knives for them for Christmas. I still need to get them some flatware and miscellaneous utensils, towels, oven mitts, etc. Her mom is taking care of bathroom and bedroom items. It is very bittersweet. | ||||||

All the cookies that needed to be decorated have been finished. The fudge has been made and is setting up now. There's just molasses cookies left to bake and peanut brittle to be made and the packaging/shipping can begin. I also whipped up a batch of cinnamon rolls for Poohbare to take to the guys at work and made some cream of potato soup for dinner. My feet are killing me, but it's been a most productive day. | ||||||

HA! The girlspawn's friend is a big Legend of Zelda fan and is having a birthday party this weekend. We're making the cake. We found a pic online of what we're aiming for - since we don't play that game and have NO clue what the hell we're doing. So far, the decorating part has gone spectacularly wrong. We're molding stuff out of gum paste and I've acquired a whole new respect for what Kricket makes look effortless. Again, we have NO clue what the hell we're doing... but DAMN we're having fun! If I find the ambition, I'll blog some pics just so you can laugh at the cake, too. | ||||||
