After pushing myself to get everything in the mail yesterday Pat convinced me I should take the rest of the day for R&R. It didn’t take much convincing. So after my appointment and post office trip in the morning I decided to start tackling some of the clean up required before starting my Christmas decorating. First up was a pile of 200+ CDs that came out of the two players when we were getting rid of the one that didn’t work. I thought I’d do a few at a time but Pat was helping and we managed all of them. We had to go through several boxes of empty CD cases to find the right ones for the CDs that we took out of the old player. I’m not sure it was what either of us had in mind regarding an R&R day but at least it is done.

I had lunch out today with the group from the Book Circle. I said I would go, then thought I’d just go long enough to get my book signed, but before the morning was over I’d decided to go and stay for lunch. They are a nice group and we have always had good conversations and discussions on a variety of topics. It was my anti-social behaviour that made me not want to bother but I’m glad I went and stayed. There is talk of another meet-up at the bowling alley for a game and lunch; one of the group works for the brewing company that owns the alley.

I had the rest of my Christmas projects underway with the expectation that they would be done by the time my last delivery was made. It wasn’t supposed to even ship until the 12th, but it arrived today. I have all the fabrics cut for the projects and they won’t take long to put together but I hate that “I’m behind” feeling.

I’m off to a Guild meeting tonight.
