Today I'm going with my granddaughter ornament looking, and we will also pick out a couple for our trees. The nursery has umpteen trees with a theme for each: ballet, pets, skiing, elves, zoo, you name it. I'm also looking for little snow globes, for the children and grandchildren of friends. It's raining and dreary, so that outing ought to cheer us right up. My friend might join us and share in the fun.
The claims adjuster is coming out this morning, so maybe we can get an okay to fix the mess in the kitchen. Or not. What will be will be, as my mother used to say. It wasn't illuminating then and it isn't now.
I've been working hard on Christmas cards, and I'm getting there. As usual, I picked the wrong number of photos to reproduce, and have ended up with extras of some and wishing I had more of others. I can't quite figure out an intelligent plan for the process. But I get my cards out and promptly, so I'm not going to beat myself up. In fact, I'm grateful for the process I have developed, which gets the job done with minimal back pain. Today in the newspaper there was an article on researching gratitude's effects on people, and I know from my practice the efficacy of thinking of stuff I'm grateful for. I'm happier for it. Evidently it also soothes the heart, the body and soul. Well, yeah!
