Christmas tree

Just back from the kids. We were going to put up their tree but it's fubar. pluged it in and nothing. Ditched it. They came over to get my tree so they could get it up before DIL has to go back to work. Darrell took one look at my 9' tall 64" across tree and just said, "No way. No room. Sorry."

They'd already carried the top two sections up the stairs from the basement so Jack carried the last section up and it's in the living room. Yay!!!

I usually have to wrestle it up the stairs myself. I sadly realized that my back just isn't up to it anymore, so I was going to give them that tree and I bought a smaller one I could handle.

Jack asked why I didn't put the tree in my back closet instead of dragging it up and down the basement stairs. I said, "You said all Christmass stuff has to be in the basement." And he said, "That was stupid of me, put it in the closet." So, in the closet it will go.

The kids will get the smaller tree I just ordered. So everyone is happy. Yay! again.

open apology

I'm so far behind on reading it's not even funny. I read fast, but not this fast.

I'll catch up eventually but I'm only going to leave a really short comment as that is what takes me forever. So, if all you get is 'great job' I'm sorry. But I have 52 tabs open in LJ alone. Yikes!

Between Thanksgiving, my birthday and getting ready for my book binding class, time is of the essence. However, the class isn't going to happen. The people who sponsor the class didn't get the papers ordered in time. *sigh* Oh, well, that just gives me more time to read. I just rescheduled the class for January.

ISP is fail. Fail, I tell you.

I haven't been around much lately due to a fail internet connexion that keeps crapping out on me. My ISP techie says my modem is fine, and the phone operator says the line is fine so now I think they have to battle it out to figure out who's taking responsibility for this shit. And I get to have Internet three days in the week only.

RL being crazy busy has also heped, of course.

*misses you guys* I feel like I'm never there anymore !

Nano Status : I made it to 5,000. That's like, 1/10 of a Nano. I don't think I can do much more this month.
