moving day
(originally posted at blogger)
I feel all dirty and guilty, going behind Diaryland's back like this. But the fact is that you can get the same stuff here for free that you get for $55 a year at Diaryland, except the stats tracking. And apparently except for the "actually being able to post when you want to" part. Since it just took literally fifteen minutes for this add-an-entry page to show up. Still and all, I will give it a little try.
There's been nothing of note going on this week in our household. I did forget to mention that we put our Christmas tree and decorations (such as they are) up on the day after Thanksgiving, as is our tradition. This is the first time our cats have encountered a Christmas tree. For the first two days they didn't even notice, but then, um, they did. So until they figure out that touching an ornament=tiny smack on my cute little nose, they can't be left alone in the house with it. It is like having toddlers.
Also, I am back on my hardcore diet, because the scale was starting to creep in the wrong direction, and I knew if I didn't get it in hand it would be leaping and cavorting into higher and higher numbers pretty soon. So. This means I spend the majority of every afternoon having to verbally remind myself to get out of the kitchen and go drink some water. It also means that I'm back to going through four or five cans of diet soda a day. I was so hopped up on diet Cherry Coke last night that I couldn't sleep until after midnight, even though I went to bed at the virtuous hour of ten-thirty.
And I'm whizzing through the Little House books. I am finding they're great for reading during the winter. Also that I can read two in one day if I neglect the laundry, and hey, what's new about that?
by the way. IT IS DECEMBER AUGH. Just thought I'd share.
