random thoughts and happenings :)

Happy solstice to all of those reading :) Our solstice was nice. Busy but nice :) Silly christians get off for their winter celebration but can I get the day off HELL NO :) But its all good. The kids liked their gifts, I got the rest of my shopping done with and put together. I'm hoping the family coat of arms I ordered for my dad gets here today or tomorrow so I can get it in the BEAUTIFUL frame I bought for it and get it wrapped to put into the truck for the journey westward.

I FINALLY got purple stripped stockings last night :) My fairy costume is coming along QUITE nicely, Scott got me GORGEOUS black irridecent wings for yule, and I got that patent casta diva corset a few weeks back, now the stockings :) Now I need a fairy skirt and a purple chemise and I'm all fairyish :)

We did Coffee baskets this year for the 'rents. We went to sparky and clarks and got his mom and step dad "american defender" which is a special "Tom ridge" blend of regular and decaf. I got Sandy Clark's decaf blend and Jennifer "Holiday spiced rum" for in her basket. I got pretty baskets and candles for in them and each basket has 2 pretty mugs in it. Scott's mom and Jack and Jenn got "Irish blessing" candles *which all smell like mint chocolate chip to me but what do I know* and I got Dad and Sandy "holiday cookies" candle. The mugs I got for dad and sandy are REALLY Pretty. So pretty in fact that I might have to go back and get us a few like it :)

Jody called me this morning at 6:30 and asked me to work for her cause she's horribly sick and barely has a voice. I of course said yes, cause I'm nice like that so here I am. Luckily the phone is quiet so far and I'm hoping I don't end up being stuck here til 10 o clock this evening. Silly people they hired that never want to work. Either way its extra money for us.

Megan gave us our solstice gifts last night and the censor she got me is WAY prettier than I expected it to be. Its one of the ones on a chain *for house blessings* and I feel like a roman catholic holding it. Its absolutely gorgeous. She got scott an Abalone Shell to burn inscense in :) WAY cool gifts from the goonie bird :)

Unfortunetly I wasn't able to get off tomorrow night so we could have gone to see Jesse. Makes me sad. Every time we get the chance to go see her either we are dirt broke or I have to work. I told scott to go without me but he won't. :*(

Well I'm gonna pretend to work now, I might add more later.

Namaste
