Well, That's a Fine How Do You Ho Ho Ho
It turns out that next Friday is the last day of school for the year. I did not know that. After being quite lacksidaisical about Christmas preparations I now have to get the bulk of it done next week, while I still have the freedom to do so. It's not a big deal, just a little surprising.
Last night I dreamed that I found my earring, but it was missing a ruby. I discovered it at a birthday party for The Child, the theme of which was "fairies". The house was full of people I didn't know, leaving little adorable fairy-like party dresses as gifts. Except The Child was her real age and at 13 wasn't going to be fitting into any of the dresses. And then some woman wandered through and said, "I'm assuming because of her politics she'd like something that can be recycled?" Huh?
I'm looking forward to this weekend. We don't have anything to do, except that The Child and I are going to Lorene's book-signing and out for coffee afterwards. (She told me yesterday that she wants to spend more time with me. Awww.)
Speaking of spending time...as a family we are in the same house quite a lot but we don't necessarily spend inordinant amounts of time together doing mutual family things. Besides sitting down to dinner, that is. But we have a new project. The Spouse wants to make a little movie and he has received a script from the fabulously talented Mr. Iwanski and so it's going to be lights! camera! action! The Child and I are starring. Won't that be fun?
I spent some time yesterday working on the play list for this weekend's 80s video extravaganza. It has, as I told JP, become a sickness with me. And mercy, just when I thought I'd run out of classic 80s hits I uncovered all sorts of things that hadn't been played yet. It'll be a fun weekend.

I had fully intended to pack up the family and go out to get a tree tomorrow possibly visiting with Aunt Diane in the process.
After the book signing.
I love the 80's music. Found a channel on the satelite that plays only the 80's all day long. Thanks for being an 80's fan. Have a wonderful weekend Lorraine
It is not a sickness. A healthy addiction, perhaps.
Fairies huh?
Not for nothing, but have you noticed you have a lot of "mo" men who are fans of your blog?
I'm just saying... maybe we have made our way into your dream state!?!?!?!
Thanks, Betty. You too. And don't forget to email your requests!
JP, I'm positive that's what they call "enabling".
Kendall, I have noticed that. I heart my 'mo's. But usually when y'all are in my dreams we're having dinner parties, redecorating or watching "Gilmore girls". Just saying.
SSounds like your going to be a busy busy bee. I didn't realize you were taking requests. I must get right on it...
Looking forward to the movie! Love the dream-lol. l am in the mad-dash mode with Christmas shopping too. We'll do it!
help
:)
Apropos of nothing,
What do Christmas Tree Farms do with the stumps after the season?
Grish, The request line is open.
Horizon, From your lips to God's ear.
Eric: Huh? Are you people not busy enough today?
How about some Def Leapard, there lorraine...
Watching your pix for 80's videos are the only way my house ever gets clean. Making the bed not included, naturally.
As soon as I get to the re-write that is.
Rob was asking
Btw, I emailed thee @ the address on thy webpage
Since the play ended, we havent had a real "family" project, even thought we do things together. I hope one presents itself soon.
Awww...sounds like a fun weekend! Especially the tree getting, Eric.
I'll look forward to the 80's weekend on Monday.
The Daughter-in-law lost her brand new replacement wedding ring with 1 carat blue diamond and another half carat of white diamonds last week. It turned up in the dirty laundry (which covers their bedroom floor) a few days later. The cat had knocked it into the mess from the nightstand. I hope your earring didn't go down the drain.
Have a terrific weekend!
Grish, dude, I love ya, but we're not going down the Def Leppard/White Snake road.
Iwanski, I'm sure it's going to be dandy. 'Cause, you know, you rock.
Rob. Inquiring mind.
CM: I'm sure it will. You guys also rock.
Gina: I suspect the missing earring is clinging to an article of clothing or has otherwise fallen on the closet floor. This is why I can't have super nice things. It bugs me too much when they break or go missing.
Oh, ok then.../pouts
