We're having a bit of a family get-together in a few minutes. I shook the rugs, swept and mopped the floors, and ran errands with Dad to get groceries during the course of the day. Mom and I also found time to go to Third Place Books and use up some big gift certificates she had that were about to expire. She even bought a few for me, since I'm not going to be getting much for Christmas this year, what with Semester at Sea.
I gotta run and get dressed. I think the party will be fun...Nana June and Papa are coming, and my awesome Aunt Jodi and Uncle Jeff will be there (secret...they always give me great books for Christmas and birthdays!), and my Uncle Larry and the odious Barb are not coming this year. Good.
Love to all of you.
