Day Off

Today was my day off. I stopped by the church to make some copies. Administrative Assistant pointed out it was my day off. I had teased her last night, telling her that she would have one day a week without me disrupting her day. So, today I was in to disrupt her day. Fortunately, it was a very brief stop.

We went to the tire place. I need new tires. They are going to be expensive. I need other work done, as well. It will also be expensive. I have an appointment for next Friday at 1:00. We went to the super farm market and ran into Realtor. We went out to lunch. We went to the home improvement store, where I bought a box that locks with a combination to hold a spare key for the next time I lock myself out of the house. We went to the grocery store. I talked to all my siblings. There has been some Thanksgiving drama this year. I've got two invites. Administrative Assistant said she'd get a member to invite me to Thanksgiving so I wouldn't have to choose between Brother and Sister. Far Away Sister finds it amusing.

I'm hosting Christmas this year. That will be nice. We'll pick a convenient date between Christmas and New Year's for the family Christmas.

I've also been cooking. I've made sausage balls to put in the freezer for the Christmas Open House and made 5 pounds of ground turkey into sloppy joes for the freezer and lunch tomorrow, when we will be hosting Brother and Sister-in-law. Sister-in-law hasn't seen the house yet. I also plan to make soup and a cake. Sunday afternoon we'll go see Short Niece in violin recital. I have commitments at the church Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings this week. I have an all afternoon meeting on Tuesday. Wednesday between meetings I get to go for an ultrasound. I once again managed to flunk my mammogram.

I'm very busy, and very happy. Daughter has been helping this afternoon, which has been nice. Back to the stove.
