I know, I said I would remind you guys,but I managed to wipe myself out from Thanksgiving. The food was awesome, per everyone, and my taste buds!!! But I went to bed last night at 7pm and didn’t wake up until 10am today. Then I still had to take a nap.
I managed to pull something in my right shoulder, so yeah.
So, I will push the entries to be in my the 30th of this month. End of the month.
I still need to get the house all Christmasy, as well as switch out the summer clothes for the winter stuff. Seems it likes to be cool for the nights, so I may as well get the stuff out since I save t-shirts since I like to layer clothing. With this in mind, Tomorrow is the last day M is working for the holidays. I will be asking for help to get the Christmas stuff and clothing down so I can let my shoulder rest.
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving for those that celebrate it, as well as getting ready for the slew of holidays that are coming up for the world. I say Happy Holidays not because it is politically correct, but because I truly hope that everyone I say it to DOES have a happy holiday. Plus, for the clerks and so on, who knows if I will see them in the next year? LOL!
I have received three entries so far…
They are:
I’ll Be Home
Once Upon a December: Winter Memories
Letting Go
If you have sent in your entry and it is not here, let us know.
Hope to see more entries when I can sit down and work on them, I am so looking forward to listening to the Christmas music and doing these! (I have my Friday list on with the Christmas Songs, but I think I will need to go through and purge some of the songs…)
I had some freaking awesome news this past weekend, as well as many things happening in preparation of Thanksgiving. Who knew it was so hard to shop, then put away the stuff? Many things are sitting on my counter waiting for tomorrow. I plan to do lots of prep work, but holy heck!!!!!!
But then I had Monday that MamaKitty had some minor stuff done, but I spent the day either in the hospital; waiting (the procedure took 1/2 to an hour, but we were there from 5am to 12n!!!). By the time we got home, I wanted nothing but sleep but had to wait until someone else was there to monitor her. The lady cleaned the house after a gall bladder surgery. She needs to be watched.
Today I had GrandmaKitty to shepherd around. I got called a Tattletale since I refused to let her get out of her other Dr Appointment today. I’m mean like that, her health taking precedence. Plus I didn’t get called the favorite Granddaughter. So there. :Sticks tongue out:
Finally, after some minor meltdowns and so on, I could get online and post this chapter.
I am sorry it took so long, but the site is officially on Vacation EXCEPT for the Writing Contest. That is one I am eagerly hoping that we get entries on. I have banned myself from PS to make me even more eager to play. Plus I have time to do them and I will want to sit down after decorating on Friday.
Here is the chapter:
Also, here is the link for the writing contest:
Looking, I have one entry so far. I have the answer to my question, so I will be posting shortly the results for the writing contest for October. I just need to boot PS (I told you I was banning myself) to put the author name in and I will be putting it out after all the relevant information is loaded.
Tonight I did the thing we hate. I put together the shopping list for Thanksgiving.
I also updated the Food Blog to have those recipes that I will be using. For once upon a time, I tried to use websites that were popular on Thanksgiving. It took forever. Then there was the time mom accidently threw away the Turkey instructions and we didn’t find out until much later. I went online to get what I needed and it took a half an hour to load the Butterball site.
It took me less than a second tonight.
So I put all the recipes that I will be using on the food blog. I offered for those that are in the Facebook Group or associated with the food blog to get their recipes added to the menu, but no one answered. The recipes are all still on the site, I just haven’t been able to link them up since my computer has been acting up and turning off the internet all the time.
Here are the recipes I will be using in one week:
NANCY’S PARMESAN CHEESE BALL
BUTTERBALL’S TURKEY INSTRUCTIONS
GRANDMA’S STUFFING (AKA SOUTHERN STYLE STUFFING)
CLASSIC GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE
PAN GRAVY
LIBBY’S FAMOUS PUMPKIN PIE
On the post, is a shopping list for all of the items above. You can find it here. I also mention an app I use for Shopping, OurGroceries.
I am off to relax, and I will get the Dying out as soon as I can, I just need to relax so I can wake up earlier tomorrow.
I have spent the previous and this night researching. I know I seemed to have built in a blind spot in my story, but I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
Of course, my computer was still being a pain in the but. I ended up tearing it apart and working on it. Then today still having issues, M and I moved the tower up out of the area it was in, and now have a fan that is now dedicated in blowing in the area that has the Graphic’s card. I think it was overheating since it was below the graphics card.
One of the most frustrating things is that when I like to relax, I like to play Civilizations V. I am not a war monger, (M is) but I like building up my cities and so on. Unfortunately, the computer kept shutting it down, now I got to play beyond the 160AD. So I am happy. Tired. But happy.
But I also posted in the Kittyinaz’s Facebook Group the new players entering the Pack in Aos Si. So there is a hint on what is coming.
I am sleepy and shaking so I need to head to bed.
Enjoy the new Aos Si Chapter if you have access, and don’t forget to tell me what you are thinking so that I can take it in account.
Also, I moved Crossing the Fine Line to Inkitt, to see what it is like. I am thinking of adding Our Road is Long and a few others, but I want to see how they are on the approval process. If you are over there, I am under my real name. I will provide a link next time.
