They are cutting hours at my job. Which is really depressing because its holiday season. I was hoping because its just me and Charles and we aren't buying for EXTENDED family this year that we could really splurge on ourselves and put a few extra gifts under the tree for one another but with my hours being cut and he only works park time due to school that Christmas this year won't be too jolly.

I'm trying to stay positive so lets get off that subject and talk about something that always makes me happy. My cats! My cat NEVER had fleas and other than vet trips she NEVER went outside but when we adopted our NEW kitty(that we love!!!) from the pound she unfortunately brought fleas with her. SO i had to go and get some flea medicine from the vet and now we are on the right track...and I'm vacuuming like crazy. HAHA


Tomorrow is a Thanksgiving Luncheon at work and I'm kind of excited to showcase my green-bean casserole. I have to get my recipe out and refresh myself making it.


Well Here is the horoscope of the day for all you SCORPIO'S out there:

You may have had recent opportunities mixed with the instability of unexpected setbacks or delays. Now you are being offered one last chance to make a powerful statement by building a business that can carry you into the future. Fear can temporarily paralyze you and increase your worries until they overwhelm you. Just do the best you can and then let it go for the best possible results.

Hope it sheds some light on your perspective.

The cleaning lady

Today was a fairly productive day. I got up early early early and dropped my kitten off at the vet ONLY for them to tell me that before they can spay her they would need to update her vaccinations. So they did that today instead of keeping her overnight for surgery. She is lethargic but she is going to be fine. I went to my mom's and helped her clean her house. She has a LOT of hardwood floors and my little brother has allergies. I got there and she was sick so I ended up doing the breakfast dishes, laundry, and the floors so that when she gets her strength back her house will look like it did when she started to get sick. She has three young kids (my two little brothers and my niece that she has custody of) and the kids run around like crazy. I came home, got my ATC's put in an envelope with a lovely message attached to each and addressed them. Those will be sent tomorrow along with my Dotee Doll swap. Those two swaps out of the way will give me time to focus on gearing up for THANKSGIVING! Gobble Gobble.


The QUOTE of the day:

Off to cook dinner and spend time with my lovey-dove

First day on the scene

Today has been pretty uneventful. I tried to squeeze my youngest fury child into the vet to have a checkup and to be spayed however they were booked. I will be dropping her off early in the morning and hope that she doesn't hate me when they are done with her surgery.

I'll be sending off two of my swaps today to my partners. It'll be nice to get those off my things to do list so I can start on some more. I'm a newbie at swapping so I'm not trying to go overboard and sign up for too many that I forget sending one or two of them out. That would be NO FAIR to my partners.

So I think I will give either the word, quote, or horescope of the day in my blogs because those are fun.

Today it will be a "Word" of the day and I'm going to try to use this word in conversation at least once today maybe even twice if it's a good one.

libation:

(noun) [lie'-BAY-shahn]
1. the act of pouring a liquid offering, especially wine 2. a beverage, especially an alcoholic one (often used humorously)

So that is that thus far. Taking care of swaps and hanging out with my kitties. Tomorrow will be more exciting.
