Yesterday, Veteran's day - is always fun to me these days. I celebrate it mostly with Jim. It means a lot to him to be honored for the service he's given.

I had the day off, and it looked like this: Slept in because Jim woke me up at 4AM with his video game being too bright (it felt like daylight suddenly in my room, and me - the brick sleeper - WOKE UP!)
He stopped, but I then fell asleep beyond 5AM (damn). I slept in until 0800, and then got up and messed about my house until my 0900 chiro appointment. Then I went on a walk to PCC from the chiro office, got myself some juice as a treat - walked back to my car/sprinted there - went home, got my yoga gear in order and clothes to boot.

Drove to Yoga. Had a really refreshing yoga class with Heidi, and then I showered after a solid savasana (felt grand) and met Jon at Peet's coffee and tea for a coffee date. Hung out a few hours...
I left to go on a date with Jim for our planned free meal for him at Applebee's for Veteran's day. We waited a while to get seated (Everyone and their grandma/brother/uncle/aunt/son/daughter) were there.
Went to Starbucks to kill time while waiting for seats.

Had a wonderful dinner and really enjoyed ourselves. Went home, relaxed until he went to work.
I then messed around online until entirely too late - and then collapsed into sleep.

That was yesterday!

Today is awesome.
Last night I had a wonderful get together at my place. The girls (Kelsi and Mel) came over to do our annual winter gift exchange/with our usual wine. I made taste Alfredo and we had yummy wine.
I bought two bottles, dropped one in Front Street Market parking lot and went back for another.

Consequently Mel drank like one glass total and Kelsi and I split the rest, and when Shane came over he had one glass as well. Goodness I like Shane. He's such a good-hearted guy.
Anyways. We exchanged gifts, had girl talk (until Shaney-poo showed up) and that went well.

I got the girls lotiony stuff, a bottle each from Bed, Bath, and Beyond - and then gift sets from Calgon. (The stuff I specifically think smells really yummy.)
Kelsi got me sundrop earrings (pretty!!!) and Mel got me a running jacket.
I love both of their gifts! Really sweet of Mel to think of my new hobby.
And every time I hang out with her and we have close moments, I remember our differences are not so bad.

I ended up drinking about a bottle of wine ish and Jim called and we talked briefly and then I went to sleep.
I tried to call Susan to arrange my Florida dates but... I missed her call somehow. I slept soundly, although I felt a little hung over from the wine. Dazed type. Whatever the case, I enjoyed the evening immensely and it has put me in a really good mood for the last workday of the year. And I got paid - big payday today.
Wawhoo!

Off to do whatever now. We did lots of inventory today.

To all those who join their family to observe this holiday too!
I am in Portland, sleepy - and my dogs are behaving in a friend-of-Jim's ... house.
I am exhausted and his friend Chris and him are playing Wii.

I thought I'd post just to record that I had a wonderful time at his sister's house for Christmas and he had fun at Grandma's in the evening on the 24th. Even if my grandparents are fr00ty and there is always new drama anymore.

Whatever the case.
Jim's Yule gifts to me were the following: a big fuzzy robe from Bath and Body works. The softest robe evar. And soft socks. And Chocolate smelling yummy lotion.

Anyways. I think I will go nap now. More to come?
