Another Fine Christmas

That's another fine Christmas under the belt. Literally. Ah well, I only feel this stuffed two or three times a year, so it not so bad. Good food. Great company. What's not to like? And yes, it was loud. ^_^

My grand nephew, Steven, is now in the proper air force training program at CFB Trenton. It is intense as they cram one year university level courses (he mentioned math and electronics) into a few months. Trenton is close enough that he come home every weekend. When he was at CFB Borden previously, he was literally getting paid to watch videos, as he had to wait for the technical training to start after he graduated from basic. This is only amusing if you are not a Canadian tax payer. ^_^

An Ordinary Christmas Eve

So after slaving over a hot stove for several hours, Christmas Eve ended like... every other Friday. After the big clean up I watched some anime. How ordinary. Not that there's anything wrong with ordinary. In fact ordinary can be good. Wishing for some excitement, may just get you more than you wanted.

Tomorrow will definitely be exciting. And loud. ^_^

Feels Like Christmas

Most of tomorrow will be taken with my Christmas baking, so I had to clear the decks, so to speak, to allow for the extra work. Sort of like preparing for the preparations or pre-preparations, or something like that. ^_^ Yep, it definitely feels like Christmas is just two sleeps away.

Shopping Season

I had to do a lot of running around today and one of my errands caused me to be in Parkway Mall for the second time in less than a week. Both times the mall was packed. Yeah, yeah, I know it's Christmas shopping season but both times was around 2pm on a week day. Hardly prime shopping hour for most people. Oh well, perhaps I'm reading too much into this.
