Finding Motivation

I'm still not quite recovered from the whole bronchitis thing.  My throat still hurts.  Maybe a few more days and I'll be somewhat normal again.  I can hope!!  After all, I have lots to do!!

I started Christmas decorating last night.  It was nice to pull out so many things that have been packed away for years and know that I would be able to find a space for them at the new house.  It was like Christmas morning opening up some of the boxes!  I need to slow down though and actually finish packing up fall stuff.  It looks like there's an identity crisis going on around here!

I got official word today that I was accepted to the Police Unity Tour in the spring.  This couldn't come at a better time.  I've been feeling like the biggest slug known to man over the past three weeks and I needed some motivation to get back on track.  Not sure exactly how to approach this.  Maybe just a walk on the treadmill to start with.  Ha!  My poor lungs.

Well, I'm off to eat some leftover chili and decorate some more.  Or maybe undecorate and then decorate.

Preparing for December

Mid-November.

Hmmm.

Wasn't expecting that too come along so quickly.

The last week has been exhausting.  While I've loved the chance to stay home for a week, I have not enjoyed being at home SICK for a week.  A pretty persistent strain of bronchitis found me as a welcome host and refused to go away.

In between naps and medicating myself I have worked on christmas shopping online and researching family history.  I have a good start on all of the Christmas shopping.  A jump start is always good.  Now if I could just finish it off before the start of December, I'd be set.

Not much else is really go on around here.  Brinkley has enjoyed the extra company.  Milo is indifferent, as always.  I slowly have undecorated for Halloween.  I have ideas for decorating for Christmas but I have no energy at the moment to make it happen.  

I have managed to catch up on a whole lot of television that I'd fallen behind in watching.  And admittedly, I had to restart many episodes after falling asleep in the middle of them.  I've also been watching Gilmore Girls.  I seem to be missing Season Three.  I don't know if I ever owned it or not but it's missing from the shelf.  My guess is I never owned it.

And now I'm off to get some more tea.
