Gettin’ Busy
I wish that my coffee cup were sitting here on the counter beside me. Now if I want to drink coffee I have to get my ass out of the chair to do so. Okay here I go…I am back but without my coffee! Darn it for getting sidetracked. I cleaned up a mess that I made and forgot to bring my coffee back here with me! Okay here I go…again…Back again but not without delay ~ once again! I put the soda in the fridge and put away some canned good.
Holidays should be abolished! I dont feel all bah humbug but I get so busy that I accomplish everything that I want/need to do. Right now I should be wrapping presents! The kids are having a fit because there are very few gifts under the tree for them. The gifts that they are getting are in my bedroom, under the bed and in the closet just waiting for me to wrap them in pretty paper. Just so it can be torn off in less than 24 hours.
I should be sleeping because I have to get up. I have to do the banking and the audit then I open. We are only open until 6 so there is less opening paper work. But it is the fact of waking up on time! Ugh! Lets not forget getting up early enough to throw together the chili!
Monday night when I got home from work I made a batch of peanut brittle, no-bake fudge cookies, and krummkake.
Then I got up and made a batch of snickerdoodles, ginger/molasses cookies, butter pecan cookies. I whipped up a batch of krummkake batter and had Alexa and the little girl that stayed with Nadine last night cook it on the baker. They ended up doing both the almond and the chocolate krummkake. Nadine helped me roll and press the cookies. I baked until I had no time left before I had to get ready for work. If I did not have to go to work I could have still been baking cookies! I went cookie crazy!
I sent some goodies home with A and I took a bunch to work. I still have more than enough here! I hope the kids like these cookies! If not I will take them to work with me ~ they will get gone.
Tonight when I got done working I picked up Derek and we went to the grocery store. When we got home I cooked the ground beef for Christmas Eve Chili. I whipped together the cheese spread ~ which is actually supposed to be a cheese ball but I dont like the nuts.
I best get away from the computer so that I can get the gifts for the children wrapped and under the tree.
Night all!
Boohoohoohoo! I still have dishes to wash too!
