What I'm Reading This Week #37
Good mid(ish)- September Friday to you. I hope your week felt short and your flop sweat was minimal. We never seem to be rewarded with two cool weeks in a row so it was back to poopie temps and we'll be tipping 90 this weekend which I am none too pleased about. Once you throw me two 70's days in a row, it's time to retire the summer temps. Dems da rules. I got a few things done this week like steaming the curtains which made them drop about 1/2" but thankfully not drag the floor. I finally got the dead flat I ordered from some chick on Etsy after she sent me the wrong thing initially and it took two weeks to get the right thing. I don't know about you but if I sent someone the wrong thing initially and made them have to drive to the post office to return my mistake, I'd be refunding some money or expediting their shipping on the right box. So I've got my two coats on the newel post after doing a little touch up on a spot I didn't see originally....
Christmas for me is a mixed bag since losing hubs in 2011. Mumsie died December 26th 2022.
ReplyDeleteI keep trying to start new traditions so maybe this year I will start small with playing tunes daily starting on the 1st. I can't wait for the election to be over so people will become human again.
I don't really have a set time for listening to Christmas music, probably because I really only play it in my car. I have 2 CDs that I really enjoy and that's pretty much all I listen to, except one radio station plays Christmas music 24/7 with no commercials so I'll turn that on sometimes.
ReplyDeleteThere was never mention of Christment grown up until after my birthday which is mid December, so I kind just stick with that out of habit
ReplyDeleteI start playing it Nov 25, any earlier and my husband gets annoyed!
ReplyDeleteI wait until November 12, we honor our soldiers on Remembrance Day, November 11, here in Canada. I move into Christmas mode then!
