Hippy hippy shakes...
Tuesday, December 8th, 2009 12:10 pmYou know, I was going post about my weekend and last night's choir concert, but after I read it over, I deleted it because it was so negative and complaining that I sounded as if nothing could ever make me happy. Kinda scary, actually.
So, all I will say about my weekend is that I froze my little patooties off, but we made money for the soccer league, and let people know, again, that yes, we have a soccer league in this town.
And all I will say about last night's choir concert is that it was long, interminable, soporific, and that my daughter's little solo group was one of two bright spots in the entire night, the other being the high school choir's third period performance group that performed a truly stunning acapella version of "Carol of the Bells." The audience was so relieved to hear something that wasn't hurting their ears that they broke out in what the Husbandly One dryly termed "premature clapulation" before the song was quite over!
And the Husbandly One made me extremely happy by bringing home some Extreme Chocolate ice cream last night. Life is good!!
And I am literally dancing with excitement until my contribution to
harry_holidays is posted. I can't wait!!
I am close to finishing two afghans that I've been working on for what seems like AGES, and that I should have finished months ago. That's one of the problems with coming up with your own designs... you have no real stopping point. You just finish when you feel you've finished. Now, if I can just finish them before Christmas, then I can give the one that was supposed to be a friend's birthday present to her for Christmas.
*sigh* I am so lame!
And now, I must set the beans to simmer for dinner tonight. YAY!!
