What's up?

Not a lot, really. What have I been doing? Well, two minutes ago I was out on the patio scrubbing the horsepoop off Midnight's winter blanket so I could repair the torn front once again..I know, I live a very exciting life. LOL.

Today I took my car in to Air Care so I could renew my auto insurance. Turns out that 1 p.m. on a Monday afternoon is a good time to do that, because I only had to wait in line about 10 minutes, or about ten times as long as it took to do the actual testing of the exhaust system. My car passed, hurray, I forked over my $45 and then went off to renew the insurance. Had to be done by the end of this week, so cross that off my list.

Then I did some grocery shopping, because my fridge was looking very bare. Now I have food to eat, a good thing. I made a nice shepherd's pie, with lots of creamy mashed potatoes, so I have good dinners to take to work for the next three days. I've made my lunch and dinner for work tomorrow, so that job is done.

I spent a nice hour visiting with my friend Jill, catching up. I've been so busy lately I'm afraid I've let my friends slide by the wayside a bit, something I'm trying to fix. It's amazing how fast the days go by and all of a sudden I realize it's been a week since I've posted anything here, or talked to friends outside of work or the farm. I really need to broaden my social horizens a bit more.

I've bought exactly one Christmas gift, got my cards ready to write, and have considered what I want to do about decorating the apartment (not much). It seems that the Christmas season is just around the corner, and as usual I'm not ready for it. The hospital put up its annual display of lights, and they've decorated the ICU with a tree and other things, and a lot of the houses along the streets have their lights up too. The Santa Claus Parade was this weekend (I was not there)..so I'm trying to get into the spirit of the season. Not happening so much as yet. Maybe if I get some Christmas baking done..when I get a spare hour or so.

Sue was going to buy Teddy and Buddy stockings for their stall doors; it's their very first Christmas! Maybe Santa will bring them some juicy apples and carrots.

Now I have to go dig out some thread to fix that stinky blanket for Midnight, so I can get it out of the apartment. Chloe has been sniffing around it, and I don't want her or the other cats to get any ideas. heh.

That's what's up here.
