More Than a Typical Monday

Yesterday was one busy day and it started with the news from BlogHer telling me my blog was one of the hot blogs for the day!  I was SOOOOOOO excited.  My day was the usual workout and shower, ready for the day.  This past weekend I spent three solid days cleaning and setting up Christmas and Monday was just a continuation of that event. 

• Workout,
• Shower
• Drop stuff at Goodwill from my closet
• Buy HUGE poinsettia for living room
• Work:  Invoicing, open mail
• Bank
• Post Office to mail invoices I typed
• Grocery to buy stuff for the Beef Bourguignon and rest of meal
• Radio Shack - cord to hook up DVD player to my little TV in "my room" - it worked
• Liquor Store - wine for guests and to cook the BB
• Home
• Dinner
• Cook the BB - took longer than the 30 minutes stated on the recipe.  Thank goodness I started last night.

Today I'm too busy to cook the BB but apple cobbler is to be cooked so will be warm for my guests.  I have a hair appointment to wash the gray away, work, art class and then it is party time.  WHEW!  I'm tired I can tell you. 


A side note...I'm listening on my iPod a book called Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay.  It is a very powerful book.  I "listened" to another of her books, "A Secret Kept" and really enjoyed the way she writes but it mindful it is really the way it is read as I've only listened to her books but they are well worth the listen!
