Work was not as I expected this morning. Things were so slow that they were letting people go home. Since I am still not back to full health from my cold,
I volunteered and went home. Then I got productive. Here are some happy things from today:
- This year I am trying to give very few gifts. The ones that are here I wrapped this morning while the rest of the house slept.
- While everyone else slept I put away the clean dishes, loaded the dishwasher again, ran the dishwasher and washed the hand washable dishes. By the time everyone awoke, the dishwasher had finished.
- It is my laundry day and I got my clothes into the wash before the house awoke.
- I went down to the cellar and did some plant supply organizing. I set up a little space heater (which got repurposed after people woke up) to try to warm up the area with the plants.
- When Aesop, the dog, woke up I gave him a short walk around the yard so that he wouldn't wake up the household. The sun was up, but not over the hill yet.
- AFTER everyone was awake I went with Gideon and Zed's mom to do some Christmas shopping. The few stores we went to weren't horribly busy on this Thursday morning.
- Zed's mom has wanted an angel like is described in the Bible. Keziah made one for her. My daughter is very talented.

It was a good and productive day.
