Are We There Yet?

So my enthusiasm of the other day has given way to too many Christmas parties and late nights. Enough with the holidays already. I literally cringed when I saw yet another invitation pop up into my mailbox a minute ago. That would be #7 (and that’s not even counting our own family celebration). Stick a fork in me; I’m done.

I’ve spent the day doing basically nothing. Which, I always remind myself, is ok once in awhile, especially on a Sunday. I did attempt a shoot for a Lensbaby contest this morning. Most of it was just frustrating, but I got a couple of “maybe” shots. I tried to remember how to crochet for about 5 minutes until it was time to turn and do a new row and that headache that’s been hanging around all day decided to pull up a chair, kick off his shoes and get comfortable. And that bugs me because I seldom get headaches.

There seems to never be anything on TV these days (so why is the cable bill so high?); so I’ve resorted to an old standby “Sleepless in Seattle.” It was either that or “While You Were Sleeping.” Hmmm… wonder if I’m just tired.

The one bright spot in my day? Reading my horoscope for January 2008. And I quote, “Here’s your takeaway message for 2008: No matter what else you accomplish, this year you will learn how to communicate with others in a new way.” It went on to say, “It is an excellent time to start a new website or strike a deal to write that book you’ve been dreaming up.”

Helloooooo.
