White

The outside world is white. Two inches of snow, and it doesn't appear to be stopping. Good thing I got groceries yesterday. I had plans for going to the Natural food store, but I don't know what the roads are like out there.

The ringing in my ears has lessened, but still present.

I woke up sometime around 6:30, and could not go back to sleep. No matter how much I wanted to because I was warm and Hemlock was curled up in the crook of my arm with his head tucked under my chin. He's been very clingy lately. Following me around. He has to be in the same room with me.

I made a quick version of my vegan chili last night to find out, it's not vegan because I used canned black beans that had MSG in them and that's derived from either vegetable, dairy, or meat. Since mine didn't specify, I'm not eating it. At least John likes it.

I made a nice summer squash with tomato sauce and TVP and that was truly tasty. I topped it with a pepper blend. Nothing like freshly milled pepper blend on top of food. YUM. I think I will make some garlic cloves in olive oil today. I am still baking bread at least every other day. I like making my own bread. John eats it in his lunches and he likes it too. It feels wholesome. I like feeling wholesome every now and then.

I am feeling better now. Both flu-wise and Aunt-Flo-wise. I am now feeling much more like my calm self. Still sleeping on couch. Dangerously close to staying on the couch for the simple fact that it is extremely comfortable.

Two and a half days until Return of the King. So very stoked.

Still White

I'd say there is about four inches of snow on the ground now, and it is still snowing. I have managed to get a bit done around the house today. I managed to put all of the books in the hallway, so that hubby can see that we do indeed need a bookshelf. Two of them really. And an entertainment center. A little at a time. I can only do a little at a time....

John just watched a promo for ROTK, and I was torn between watching and not watching and just about ecstatic saying TWO MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!

He's like .....

I'm like TWO MORE DAYS!!!! (holding up two fingers for emphasis)

Then he said something vulgar indicating that I was enjoying the 'Two more days/ viewing of the promo' too much. :P

Maybe.... I ... Am....

>:)

I have to sell some of my camping gear. There's really no need for four tents a screened in patio, and a canopy. Not for two people. Not to mention all the gear I've collected over the years such as a table and chairs, two sets of campware for eating... etc etc

I figured since I'm not driving to Columbus this weekend, It'd be nice to get some of the things put into an organized fashion. Which reminds me, I have to buy vaccuum cleaner belts... so that I may vaccuum when I'm done. I'd like to be able to get my stuff completely out of storage before having to pay another month. But, thanks to the holidays, I think I'll have to pay one more month. Drat.

I am getting quite a bit of editing done and I see the light at the end of the dreary tunnel that is chapter 10. Considering that I've basically rewritten it, I think I'm making decent timing.

I am also making the dough for cinammon rolls tonight, so that John can take them in to work tommorrow. If I had enough gumption to leave the house, I'd go get some red and green sprinkles.

If I had enough gumption.


Which reminds me, I need to send an e mail.
