Pardon the hiatus
Pardon the brief hiatus over the past weekend, but I was just a tad busy. I (in no particular order):
- Replaced the shower head in my bathroom (other one died of age-related issues). I now have a showerhead/hose combo that will let me wash my hair in the tub without getting a horrible crick in the neck from trying to get my head under the tap. Yay! I feel very home-improvementy; it works perfectly, and I love it.
- Went to a gorgeous concert at school. Christmas music for two pianos, both being played by incredible musicians. Included some Nutcracker stuff. Went home feeling very Christmassy (incomparable pics by a brilliant photographer to be posted soon)
- Purchased over half the Christmas presents that I need to get, and got ideas for the rest.
- Tidied, vacuumed, dusted most of the house
- Grocery shopped (long overdue)
- Cooked a loin of pork and a butternut squash (to be consumed through the week)
- Hard-boiled some eggs for salads
- Washed/ironed/folded/put away the laundry
- Scoured catboxes
- MADE IT TO MY FIRST RUNNING GOAL OF .5 MILE WITHOUT DYING (more on that at a later post)
- Went to beautiful Traditional Latin Mass for the First Sunday of Advent (more later)
- Studied for finals/voice juries
- Worked 6 hours Friday and 8 hours Saturday (money=good)
- Braved the Walmart to get wrapping paper, Christmas lights, and kitty litter (no small feat at this time of year)
- Wrapped several presents (plenty more to do, though)
- And went to bed last night by 9, which gave me 9.5ish hours of sleep. I haven't felt this well-rested in weeks!
And that last reminds me that I really want to get 9ish hours of sleep again tonight, as I'll get all of six tomorrow night. So, for now, good night!
