(to-do) Sunday gets a late start today....

Very late. I can't believe it's after 4 pm already! And since work hasn't updated my schedule, I need to be in at 10 am. Ick. Oh well. Bed by 11, and up by 7. Such is my life. :P

So the to-do list is a bit abbreviated, considering everything.

- Baked Beans and Kielbasa in the crock pot for dinner tomorrow.
- Chex Mix -delayed until I can find the roasting pan. Probably Tuesday.
- Email Collin questions about estates
- Advent Story for Day 5 and Day 6
- Draft of trust
- Discussion question
- Food plan for the week. delayed until tomorrow morning.

That's it. It will probably still take me until 10 pm. *sigh* Time to start.

(advent) December 5 - Carollers invade Crosswinds Books

Sorry it's late! I meant to have it done earlier, but homework took precedence.

December 5

“Oh how the bells, sweet silver bells, all seem to say, throw cares away…”

Molly sank down into one of the easy chairs in the corner of the large upstairs room of the Crosswinds Bookstore and let the music wash over her. Father Christopher had arranged with Marge to bring the Carter’s Cove Catholic Church Choir over to serenade the store, as he did every year. The achingly beautiful music filled the store, and Molly loved to come up and listen.

The choir stood with their backs to the fireplace that dominated one end of the building, the gold and green of their robes brilliant against the dark wood and stone of the hearth. To either side, Christmas trees sparkled with thousands of tiny white lights. Marge had decreed long ago that she wanted a snowflake theme to her store at Christmas, and Molly decided once again that her aunt had had the right of it. Atop each tree, a star glowed, and that, too, was right.

( For more of the music, follow the notes... )

Today, Molly got a lovely carol and the first of SA’s actual gifts.

Also, don't forget, tomorrow is the first of her recipes!
