First, Happy Holidays to everyone that is here. Since I am literally am over the world, I wish to let you know you have my good wishes for the season. As the darkest night of the year approaches, I hope your world is full of light, love and happiness.
Merry Christmas to those that celebrate it, as well as a Happy New Year from the Kittyinaz family. (including the pets!)
I am so sorry!!! Thursday was a wash for me… Hubby had me try a game, and I loved it (civilization 5). But when everyone got home, the news that we are leaving early caused a bit of a ruckus.
Yes, we are leaving Texas for AZ this Friday instead of Monday.
What does this mean?
Time is short, and I have alot to do. It didn’t help that this past weekend was a busy one with my mom. I spent Saturday with her and the boys, as well as spending the rest of the day with my brother and them at their town’s snow day. Which was funny as hell watching people play in something I saw everyday when I was little and played in. It was also fun to think back on those days adn share them with my brother who can barely remember the days.
Yesterday was a visit to Grandma Kitty, as well as a pampering day for both of us after standing in lines in 50 degree weather for the boys to ride everything. Yes, I got a pedi courtesy of Mamakitty, and gave myself a gift of a manicure. It was so nice not to have to do my own nails! And it got rid of some cramps from the day before.
However, the weekend ate into time I had planned to spend on other things.
So, today I am finishing the cards I was working on at 2:30 this morning. (I am up only because of a kitten who could not understand Mommy needs to sleep more than 4 hours). I will be getting the names on the banners, and work with someone to finish the contest in case something goes wrong on my end to put the badges on them.
The contest closes the polls on the 15th. And you may want to try to vote for your favorites… might.
I will be also working on getting the chapter of Clocks ready for you guys, but that will be it. I have way too much to do, and things are piling up. So I will be working on all of that. I will be online today, but if I don’t answer you, it is because I am busy doing something else, or hopefully getting my mifi delivered. Stupid Murphy, we know he took it.
Damn, sitting here, I am thinking of more stuff to do, so I need to be off. I wanted to let you guys know what is going on, and why I am being a bad bad kitty.
Now I am off to fight with the computers, (yes computerS) try to do banners, (which I got one done before the computer needed to restart) and get these Christmas cards out. Once I am out of stamps, I am done… sad thing, is I am hoping to get one out to all the betas!
See you guys later today, or at the latest tomorrow.
Enjoy the Christmas banner that the most awesome 4Padfoot made!
I know.. too puny for this time of night. Or day if you are on the other side of the world…
It’s been a long day, but I wanted to give you this chapter!
Right now, I am decorating my computer, as 4Padfoot plays with the backgrounds to decorating the site for Xmas. Since I am leaving in two weeks (yeah!!!!!!), and will be gone until the 18th of January, I will not be here to really deal with the Xmas stuff. (as well as me decorating the posts… warning!)
*Sighs*
But I am excited for the upcoming trip. I made a list for my iPhone that is just the Xmas songs and the more popular songs right now. It’s only 813 items, nowhere as long as the other ones. IT’s two days long, so it should be good for the trip, and how my hubs and I like to skip a song if it doesn’t fit the part of the road we are on.
Now here is the bad news. I am officially on vacation. The ladies are on vacation. Everyone is on vacation.
Well, except 4Padfoot for emergencies. And she will probably play while the boss is away.
But what does this mean??? Means it is time for me to write….
See, I have this week, which I will be more around than any afterwards. But next week? I will be running around, making lists, researching things and so forth.
And trying not to murder my iPad.
Seriously.
I have to turn it off, bend the edges and then work it for about 10-15 minutes before repeating. What is it doing? It’s called ghost touching. I can lay the thing down, walk away and no one close to it, and you can watch it move around, open apps and so forth, all on it’s own.
Yeah, it sucks.
But I will be backing up the laptop that I will be using, putting the last touches on the banners (the names and so forth) and putting the files I will be using on a thumb drive in case I can’t use the google drive. I can’t think of why I cannot, but I am not taking any chances.
Making lists, and checking them twice, and wrapping all the stuff we have already. I will also be taking the traverse for an oil change and all that fun stuff.
The weekend before we leave, Connor will need to be washed. And we will be packing the Traverse that Sunday, so all I have to do is get up, get ready and leave with the dog. Well, stop and grab me a Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper to help me wake up.
LOL!
OK…
So some reminders..
First up, is the Christmas Contest is live and ready for you to read. Go forth, read, review, and then vote for your favorite! There are some seriously great stories in this bunch!!! And have you found the easter eggs in the banners?
I will mention that the swan has the words from the story on it….
Yes… I did put that much effort into it!
The other thing, is please remember the Amazon link!!! It does pay for things that we use monthly. I know Cyber Monday is coming, so I am not only putting the link in the pretty picture, but also as words. I saved the link as my Amazon link to the site. That is all you have to do, is click through the link once, and it will give me credit on it.
