For Today - December 2, 2008 - Tuesday.

Outside My Window...It's black 'cause it's almost midnight. I'm writing this before I get to sleep 'cause Tuesday is going to be super busy. It's also very cold outside - suppose to get down to 27.

I am thinking...I am not at all happy with this template & the look of this! But it's now 12:30 AM and I'm too tired to fix it. Amanda - can you help???? .

I am wondering...if I can get a doctor's appointment for my dad. It appears he has an UTI - but of course he thinks it's colon cancer. If so - what difference does 10 hours make? No need for the ER tonight. Finally he's agreed that is the case.

I am thankful for...for hubby fixing grilled cheese sandwiches and soup for supper. Yummy!

From the kitchen...Clean dishes & Christmas decorations.

I am going... to workout very early in the morning; call Dr. H & Hearthstone & make sure Dad can get to the doctor today; get my hair cut & colored; buy two 4' Christmas trees; go to WW meeting; come home & watch Biggest Loser; collapse.

I am wearing...red velour pants & top w/walking shoes. Yes - even though it's almost midnight, I'm wearing shoes!

I am reading..."The Photoshop Elements 5 Book for Digital Photographers" by Scott Kelby.

I am hoping...to sleep through the night. I didn't drink any coffee today - but I did have lots of green tea. We'll see. . . .

I am hearing...the wind blowing.

Around the house…Christmas decorations waiting. Will they go up this year? Or stay snuggled in their boxes. Only time will tell. The Jim Shore nativity is up. And the one from Home Interiors bought years and years ago by hubby's mom. What about the angels & garland & pearls & etc.? I don't know. I'm not making any promises. Hubby doesn't care if any of it goes up. No dinners or parties are planned. It's just the two of us. We may keep it simple.

One of my favorite things…is knowing I'm soon going out of town & will stay at a divine 1800's bed & breakfast.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week....Hair cut & colored. Meeting tomorrow. Volunteer @ GS Wednesday morning and then get tail light installed & get car inspected & renew registration. Make sure I have enough WARM clothes to take to Nachitoches, La for the Festival of Lights. http://www.natchitoches.net/index.php. Oh - and Photoshop portraits for Amanda & Christy, burn CD's and pop into the mail! Make phone calls.

Something you may not know about me...I'd rather play with my camera than do just about anything else. Not that I'm particularly good at it.. . but still I play!
