Today I finished wrapping all my Christmas presents (all 24 of them - phew!) and I actually managed to do a four-line rhyme for each one (it's a tradition in Sweden to write rhymes that give you a vague and intriguing clue to the contents) so I'm pretty happy with it. It's been YEARS since I was finished this early and I still only had a few days to spare, lol.

That's an awesome tradition

( my Dad's Dad came over here from Sewden )

Glad you like it.

And it's good that there are people from Sewden. Who else would mend our clothes?

I thought of something to do!

Waste time

but… I'm pretty sure you need to have something better to do to consider your time being WASTED

if you HAVE nothing but time, then the way you choose to fill it is kind of irrelevant I'd imagine.

Made a healthy dinner.

Made fresh bread dough ready to be baked for tomorrow's breakfast.

Canned a boatload of tangerines into jam, about 14 jars worth.

Shopped for new jogging pants.

Yay.

Change in color, cut, or both?

Sometimes I think your life can't be for real.

I live my pretend glamorous European life through you.

Well, the hair is in shock, which should tell you something about how much I cut off. It turned out very well. Did a new cut and color. Lots redder - my towel looks like my hair bled on it.

I had 3 inches cut off mine last friday ( it's SHORT ) and RED

I'm going to shower and then bake a fruitcake.

Popped my bread pudding into the oven not long ago. (And it's smelling pretty darned nice, too. )

Gotta run to the office briefly to check up on the progress of an aquarium I set up there. Then, back home to make a rum caramel sauce for my bread pudding for Christmas eve dinner.
