weekend update

this weekend was truly lovely.
i was kinda dreading game this week (so much anticipated angst), but i actually managed to have a good time and do some serious planning, thanks in part to my dear friend vale979. several people were there who i had really wanted to meet and/or see again, so that was also good.
then i came home (after being up too late resulted in coughing a lot) only to find out that ross was not planning for us to go see his grandparents this weekend after all. that is planned for next weekend.
so saturday morning i got up and went out and got a lot done. didn't get back until about 5pm. xmas shopping and xmas decoration shopping and necessity shopping was accomplished. ross and i curled up and snuggled and it was very nice.

sunday was even better. i went to church early and wrapped xmas gifts for kids whose parents are incarcerated and then we had a lovely service highlighting the ceremony of carols by benjamin britton. good stuff. i would have been in it myself, but unfortunately i got sick.
after church i hung out with heather keiwig, a very cool girl with a serious fiber habit. we drank tea and made cookies and when i came home ross had dinner ready. our friend dawn ate with us and helped us with xmas decorations. the house smells like the holidays.
i am very satisfied.
perhaps there will be cookie and candy making tonight.
