I’m getting some finishes done today – and it’s about time.

I’m pretty sure I’ve finished my shopping and all but my last two envelopes are in the mail.

I delivered my Reverse Advent Calendar bag of groceries to the Food Bank today. The list came to me from a blog or somewhere online; I bought all the groceries at the same time and delivered it today so they will have time to put them in their hampers. Perhaps not the intention of the idea, but it worked better for me.

I finished decorating the tree this morning. It feels a bit wobbly and there seem to be gaps in the branches that I don’t remember from past years; Pat generally puts up the tree but I did it this year so that could be the problem. It is in a different location than in the past so that could be it. I have to say that decorating the tree isn’t my favourite thing; I thought it was and maybe it will be again but, for this year, there were other things I’d rather have been doing.

I finished one of my three library books that are due in a couple of weeks. I almost finished it last night but I was falling asleep and couldn’t keep going even though there were only a couple of chapters left.

I have almost finished my ornaments – well that is if you don’t count the last two that I’ll be working on when I’m at Christy’s. Early supper tonight and then I’m going to get at the backstitching.

What isn’t finished (besides the ornaments)? I don’t have the reports ready for my meeting tomorrow night, I don’t have my bag packed for tomorrow night’s meeting, I don’t have my Secret Pal gift ready for tomorrow, I don’t have any sewing ready for my afternoon stitching, I don’t have my bag packed for my weekend on Texada, and I don’t have my bag packed for my trip to Christy’s on Monday.
