Happy Friday ya'll!
1.) Saw the christmas lighting up ceremony last night. The town hall was lit up really interesting- looked like a gingerbread house. Everything looks really pretty.
2.) Saw the film Hamlet 2 last night at the film festival. I completely enjoyed it.
3.) Have too much to do and have to do work this weekend. But my stupid work laptop screen is broken, so I actually have to come in a do work in the office instead of on my couch.
4.) Going out to see Handel's Messiah tomorrow night, we got like the last 2 available tickets in the theatre.
5.) I am really looking forward to a lie in tomorrow.

I've never gotten food on my underpants!

1) Received my Barclays "chip and pin" card; too bad the account has a zero balance :(
2) Waiting all morning for the dude to show up to fix our oven (broken for 10 days now).  He's now over an hour late.
3) Going to a "Passions" party tonight... should be interesting
4) "Joined" the local Freecycle group
5) Cleaned the kitties' litter box.

1. DH's birthday today and I get to benefit from his pressies as well - tickets to a show and a nice dinner out!
2. I've had three days off work and managed to stay in my jammies for an absurd amount of the time!
3. Our new "diet" (which isn't really a diet but rather just changing our habits) has had a very happy effect - I'm losing weight AND feeling less hungry (I got super busy yesterday and didn't even notice until about 4:00 that I hadn't eaten lunch - and that NEVER happens to me!!)
4. I only have one week left in my current position at work.
5. I only got paid yesterday, but thanks to birthdays and Thanksgiving I'm already over my budget.  >:(

1. I went ahead and ordered DD's Christmas presents - didn't really have the money but if I didn't order now that would mean facing stores in December and that ain't gonna happen. Not that I will have the money in December anyway so why not now.
2. Relieved that chore is crossed off my list.
3. Now that Thanksgiving and the majority of my Christmas shopping is done I need to focus on what to pack for our upcoming trip.
4. Putting our tree up this weekend! We were going to use our fake one but DD insists on a real tree - says it's not a real Christmas without one...how do you say no to that?
5. Very glad it's the weekend.
