Alone at Last!!!!!!!

Well here I am, all alone, by myself, just me and I. Damm it feels good. Don't get me wrong, Bill is the love of my life and I would be lost without him. But when he takes his hunting trips, something magical happens around here. Things that would take forever to do, or chores that go on the back burner for when you have time seem to get done.
My first night, I spent in front of a roaring fire wrapping christmas presents. They are all wrapped! Every last one of them. They are neatly stacked and organized in the spare bedroom. And then, I moved on to my christmas cards. All filled out and ready to mail within a week or two. Yup, got them all organized and done. And then, Bill had given me a new 2009 calendar to hang in the kitchen, so I deceided to fill out the months with all the birthdays, anniversarys, and special events throughout the new year of 2009. Did my dishes up, cleaned up the kitchen and then set up my sewing machine for a weekend of sewing. How's that for accomplishing things. I am pretty proud of myself. When I told my girl friend what I had done last nite, she just shook her head and said "you have some kind of sickness".
Today I slept in, how wonderful that felt. I slept till 8:00am, which is really sleeping in for me. I made a list for the grocery store and errands that needed to be run, and I was off. Home by 1pm putting stuff away, and now I am waiting on my girl friend to pick me up. We are spending the afternoon at a craft fair and then out for dinner tonight. Sounds like fun doesn't it?
I guess I won't get to that sewing machine today, but now I can just keep it out all week long. So any day I want to sew I can. I feel so liberated...........................
