I have a pile of clean laundry to clean, a fridge to clean, it's sad I'm awaiting the end of an event today (probably 11pm) so I can go home and deep clean and fold clothes, haha.

Our friend who lives across the hall in Bellingham invited us for Christmas dinner (we always go south to spend the holiday with her). that means I'll only cook for Christmas Eve. That's usually a simple buffet of finger type foods. I already got my Norwegian goat cheese for Christmas morning to go with raisin bread. I used to make Yulekaga fruit bread. Maybe I'll try again this year since we have to go south a bit early so I can visit the dentist. - MargyPowell River Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580698518291129041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-77883982339296013662016-11-30T10:01:28.300-08:002016-11-30T10:01:28.300-08:00Love the blue lights!

So happy for you & your husband - you guys have really built up a huge amount of business in a short period of time. Make sure you also get an opportunity to rest. Sounds like you have that planned in the upcoming weeks. You need that time for your physical & mental battery recharging. :-)Hawaii Plannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04760426766801381563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-9070812730549993082016-11-30T09:00:03.843-08:002016-11-30T09:00:03.843-08:00You are really going to love your down time.

I was in healthcare so we never closed-I always worked Christmas Eve evening so had to be sure I was good to go as far as family Christmas was concerned. We have family for Christmas this year-first time all together for some time. I'm going over the top with decorating-fortunately I have a great stash built up and if I run out there is always the charity shop.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830177691014290662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-13157735921212094922016-11-30T04:21:42.427-08:002016-11-30T04:21:42.427-08:00Biscuits and booze, you're my kind of woman.

I put up the tree (no ornaments yet though), a lit garland on the mantle and two small lit trees on either side of the front door outside. Cookie making will happen when I'm off for Christmas break.Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328674280714013955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-62999670912892054002016-11-29T21:24:26.503-08:002016-11-29T21:24:26.503-08:00Sounds like the good busy.
