I have mailed all the things!

I went to the post office last week and got all the mixes and cards in the mail HUZZAH! I now some of you more local to me have received them already. Sorry overseas people, they might end up being a New Year's gift rather than a happy winter holidays LOL. Enjoy it no matter what!
I still need to spin by again tomorrow though as I need to mail a couple more things, but I can use the self service machine for those and it is open after hours.
One of my cats has been acting off today...I'm worried I'm going to have to make an emergency vet run before we leave town. Looks like he may have had an upset stomach, his bum is all read and he's letting his tail dangle, I think to protect his sore bottom. I did run some hot water on toilet paper and try to make sure he was clean back there - he did NOT like that and sat and pouted in the bathroom for the next few hours. He isn't yowling though, so I'm hoping that maybe it's just a 24 hour thing. Guess I'll just check again tomorrow and see. There is a vet inside the local PetSmart that is good for emergencies like this so if he is still looking sad tomorrow, I'll have to make an appointment really quick.
I am at that stage where I start impulse ordering more gifts. I bought a few more things for Tim yesterday while ordering the last few things for coworkers. I don't mind spoiling him though.
Our work "day of eating" is tomorrow (we made it a non-holiday party because our newest person is Jehovah's Witness and doesn't celebrate things, and we are trying to lure her in because she is preggers and we are going to have a baby shower for her while eating all the things). I'm going to wake up and whip some cream for Ambrosia so it is nice and fresh for lunch time. I have all the ingredients ready to go so it's just a matter of whipping the cream, mixing in the sour cream, then dumping in all the fruit. I should be able to do that in a few minutes before heading out the door.
And BONUS the Ravens won so I get free coffee from Dunkin Donuts (this is the only reason I follow football at all, FREE COFFEE! other wise I could care less...Tim is a Packers fan so I root for them by out of marital obligation ... plus Aaron Rodgers is a big ol' nerd so I don't mind too much)
Toodles!

That's a really nice thing you did at work, making it a non holiday party. I don't often see other JW's mentioned in peoples' posts so I have to comment. :)

I am amused by the "day of eating."

Date: 2016-12-23 02:32 pm (UTC)It looks like he must have hurt his tail so he's having trouble lifting it which caused the messy poo issue. Vet said he was fine though. She even shaved his butt to double check lol! My theory is he fell down the stairs goofing around and maybe hurt his tail/back ? Hoping when we get back he is lifting it more. He seems fine otherwise though and vet was pretty nonchalant.

Date: 2016-12-22 12:03 am (UTC)Definitely some smiles, and one had us cry laughing and going back after we were done to listen again today on our way back from the library.
Thank you!
Merry, merry to you and Tim!

Date: 2016-12-24 12:59 am (UTC)Been doing a lot of "other mom" or "substitute husband" stuff helping take care of the kids, running out for cravings and doing the lifting. Putting in applications as much as possible and hitting up the local library (I miss her old library in NY. lol) Hoping to get a call about something after the holidays. >.< But yeah just running around trying to learn on the fly with a 5 and a 7 year old. haha.
