slice of life...

slice of life...

Yes, I'm here, serving a warm slice of life, a la mode if you want it.

What I am doing right now, in the midst of the excitement that is my life:

1) eating a Braeburn apple with a little peanut butter on it for lunch.

2) listening to aural yumminess on my iTunes in the form of Neil Finn (HUGE surprise, that, huh?), The Tragically Hip, Gomez, Collective Soul, and lots of others. Great soundtrack. My iTunes is scarily Neil-heavy though, so I'm slowly rectifying that even though I have no more room on my Nano. I listen to iTunes all the time during my work day now, so I need to stock it more/better/deeper. I also linked it to Last.fm for when I want someone else to give me some musical surprises based on stuff I like. Fun!

3) contemplating what I'm going to write for the holiday letter... still need to do that.

4) contemplating the two crafty gifts I still need to finish VERY soon.

5) going through a few work emails and glancing at my long to-do list for the rest of the afternoon.

6) listening to the rain/sleet combo hitting my window and hoping the power stays on in this ice/rain/snow storm.

7) charging my cell phone (in case the power does indeed go out so I'll have a fully charged phone).

8) trying to decide what treats to make for the Altered Art Chicks holiday party next week (Audrey's bringing the penne with vodka sauce, Melissa's bringing the salad, and I'm in charge of "treats").

9) wondering when I'm going to have time to do my part of the next SBG collaborative kit (I have started my portion, but when will I finish it in time for the deadline?????).

10) trying to get over the fact that Madonna is being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame next year when Rush hasn't even been nominated yet. Don't get me wrong, I like me some Madonna (especially early stuff), but Rush has egregiously been overlooked for the Rock Hall thus far. That's all I'm sayin'...

Hope your a la mode hasn't melted already. Eat up.

And share your current slice of life in the comments... What're you doing right now/thinking about/concentrating on?

I am currently:
* thinking I should be going to bed instead of reading blogs at 11:30 PM
* admiring the tree skirt I just finished (bought a very plain one and embellished it myself)
* still getting warm fuzzies about my little tree; I am absurdly proud of it
* wishing I were more inclined to finish the Christmas menu
* knowing that if I don't finish said menu this weekend, I am going to be up the creek, seeing as I start my new job on Monday!
* just remembering that there is something else I need to do for said job, and I need to do it tomorrow
* also need to finish Christmas shopping (almost done)
* wishing my male cat would stop chasing the orange cat
* still miffed about a note sent home from DS's daycare and trying to figure out how to handle it with the director tomorrow
* hoping house elves magically appear sometime soon to clean up my house, especially the den and the kitchen

Have you tried Honey Crisp apples? I'm not an apple fan, but like those - slightly tart. Just don't make pies outta them for your "treats." :-)

What am I currently doing/thinking? Hm ..
* need to bug hubby to print out the holiday letter
* need to do laundry for our field trip holiday
* need to get son to take a bath for his test tomorrow
* need to get my act together to get to my Mum's before noon today
* need to figure out what to buy at the store for tomorrow's fast breakfast and tonight's potential dinner
* need to figure out how to get in some more exercising today

and the list goes on ...
