My one boss is out of the office today, my two co-workers are both out today (one her son is graduating from college, the other called in sick) - the two managers in front of me are remote today - and my other boss left about an hour ago for the day. So it is quiet. Very quiet. I told my boss that if nothing is going on at 3:30, I was going to cut out about 1/2 hour early as well! I could probably cut out at 3PM, but with the other two gone as well, I don't want the department left empty. Not that it matters as I don't have much to do with that department.
Had the first group of grandchildren over on Saturday to do their Christmas baking. I so much enjoy this time with them. Grandpa watched TV while we baked and then played games. Had a great time. Makes me want to do it more often. Will have to see how next year starts off. Maybe once a quarter have over... alternate the grandchildren or something. But it was fun.
More packages will be arriving this week, and what I have already received is wrapped and under the tree. I overdid it again. Even more so than in years past, I think. Or is it that my family has just gotten larger - but then - only by one! Altho I did buy a small gift for two of the grandsons girlfriends.... which reminds me - I need to get something for a granddaughter's boyfriend! I know what I want to do... will have to see if I can get it this next weekend. Or send her to pick it up for me. We shall see!
I just got a text from a dear friend at our 'old' church.... they invited us over for dinner Wednesday night. I don't get home until about 5:30 but she said that was fine, to come when we can. It will be nice to sit and eat and chat with them. I was going to have them over after the holidays - and I still need to do that. We met them back in 1984, I think it was, when their daughter was two years old. I did baking with their daughter until my oldest granddaughter turned two - then I quit. I have always felt bad that I didn't continue.
Just starting to ramble now..... where have all my stories gone... maybe 2018 will be a good year and my heart will feel joy again..... in the meantime.... don't spend all your money in one place!
Blessings!
