Moment: Friday evening, driving home, black trees arterial against the pale peach sky, Sarah McLachlan singing "I'll Be Home for Christmas" and a beautiful sadness washed over me
Saturday: Out of bed and then back to bed. In pajamas until 3 p.m., watching A Christmas Caper starring Shannon Doherty on the ABC Family Channel.
Dosage: Up, working, chasing away the "I don't cares"
Office Christmas Party: Tasty food, warm welcomes, good conversation and another Awkward Moment with The Big Boss to add to my collection
Sunday morning: Cold dry wind whipping my hair up, my dad saying, "When it blows like that, you know you're alive."
Publix: Old home week running into parents of friends (Heather, that's you), old teachers, family friends
Lunch: Dad helped Mom make chili - the only thing he knows how to make; very charming
Nap: In the sun on the couch for two hours...ahhhhh.
Evening: Christmas music in the car on the way to meet Eva, Justin and Dillon. He was tired and sat in my lap with his head on my shoulder. That's happiness right there.
Baking: Cinnamon raisin sourdough bread...Mom's heavenly concoction. The house smells heavenly.
Carol of the Day: "Gentle Mary Laid Her Child"
Christmas spirit: Lifting?
Creativity: Low, hence another list post. More tomorrow...promise.

What great little moments. Thanks for sharing!
I sense a spark (or twinkle?) of Christmas spirit. hooray!
OMG what are you saying about lists. they're MAGICAL i tell you. magical! and so is christmas caper... it's like she even got punished for her crimes but not really and she fell in love all over again... which was also magical.
M - I would've never pegged you as someone who would enjoy the cheesy goodness of The Christmas Caper. Was it just me or was the little boy so adorable you wanted to chuck him under the chin?
it was a moment of weakness and possibly too much tequila from the night before. i think or was that saturday night? or was there just nothing on tv? but um... uh. once in a blue moon i can't help it. that kid was so cute he couldn't possibly be bad... but that's where that rocky road starts right. before there's no return. soon he's stealing diamonds and pocket watches/drugs/more drugs and there's no stopping him.
m, my mind is absolutely blown.
but i do agree about lists. and this one's a goodie.
