Happy December 1st

Hello.

It’s December.  The snow has started falling on the ol’ blog.  And, my birthday is just 5 days away.

Leif has been asking what I’d like to do for my birthday.  Right now, sleeping all day sounds pretty choice.

I had a pretty lovely Thanksgiving.  Leif made mashed potatoes, turkey gravy and had some precooked turkey in the freezer.  He brought everything to town and we had a simple open faced turkey sandwich dinner.  It tasted wonderful, but the best part was I didn’t have to spend all morning cooking and the afternoon cleaning.  We sat and watched TV.  We ate.  We drank gallons of tea.  And it was very, very peaceful and relaxing.  I was surprised to find that after all, it was one of the nicest Thanksgivings I can remember in a long, long while.

Friday I had to do mountains of homework and I worked both Saturday and Sunday.  But, Leif and some friends came to town on Saturday so we went out to a delicious dinner and had yet more tea afterward which was much, much fun.

Now, however, I’m back to school and exhausted.

So what do I want to do for my birthday?  Well, birthday wish #1 is NO HOMEWORK!

We shall see.
