This Evening

I stayed home from work today, a little punkish and definitely feeling the results of getting up at 4:30 four days out of the work week. Decided to rest today, what with all the festivities coming up at work . . . The Feast this Thursday, and then the cookie swap and gift exchange both following not too far behind. I've got to be on my game. I ended the evening with a roaring fire, a sleepy dog and a chair in the study with my name on it. Christmas music playing and paperwork to catch up on. I'll be good to go tomorrow.

    oooh Dawn, it looks lovely, I can just imagine it all, apart from the paper work I would love to join you...you know I miss the real cold Holidays, it's warm here in Australia, it's taking some getting used to...

    love the room, it just looks so cosy and inviting, I always think it's hard to get that look spot on, you did it though!

    Sending you an e-hug. Hope your quiet day was enough to boost you through your busy week. Your home looks lovely, makes me want to pick up the Mr Potato Head pieces I keep stepping on. Thanks for the green light on the Christmas music, I have been anxiously waiting to pop in that first CD!

    Seeing your home makes me take a nice deep breath. Beautiful and cozy and wonderful. I took last Friday to rest and relax like that. The cold weather here makes me want to do it every single day instead of heading to work.
