Holiday Cheer
I ended up not being on last night because even though the second half of my drive went well, after decorating the tree and drinking with my parents, I was tired. Tonight I've got an online shift so will be on for some threading and such, but probably not a huge amount. My road trip went incredibly well, clear sailing with the worst bits on 76 through Pennsylvania with spitting rain and dealing with the horrible traffic around Baltimore and the Bay Bridge. The trip was wonderful, because I love seeing how varied the US is from Michigan to Delaware and turnpikes to small country roads.
This morning I had my hair cut and then went to hang out with my dad and share a barbequed turkey at the place where he has his studio set up. It was a chance to meet a lot of interesting folks from Lewes, drink eggnog and I only winced once at a horrible remark.
I posted my Yuletide on Monday night and feel happy about it. It ended up being the longest one I've written yet and the posted the earliest and I hope my giftee will like it. I've got ideas for the various gift fics and hope to mail out my holiday cards tomorrow as they're all set.
My parents are going off to New York for an opera tomorrow so I'm going to have the house to myself for a night so will be around more. For all that it took longer, driving on my own was one of the most restful ways to travel. I know my car, I had my music and the roads were new but it's a great adventure.
I hope everyone's travel and prep is going well, this is a busy season but I hope a good one. My body's also doing that fun thing of oh, I can stop now.

Now I just see laundry and dishes every time I think "I can stop now." :)

I owe you a tag on Tiwa from James, but ... I have to get to my Yuletide first.
Speaking of which: I have never come so close to the deadline before. Last year I thought for sure I was going to default, but that was still pretty early on.
Today is kind of pushing it. So it's nice to hear you got your thing posted early - even if I am kind of jealous. ;)

It's weird for me to not be pushing it, but I also didn't have class stuff that took up time as well.
Tag whenever you can, no rush.
