LOL! Yeah, gorgeous is right!
I think he should be buying his Godmother a NY apartment that sleeps 8ish or so... Especially, since it seems his Mom ALREADY has a house. You don't have a NY apt!

Girly, too bad you couldn't spend that money on holiday head apparel.
Moony, I agree with Girly, the Godson needs to buy us...ummmm I mean you...an apartment in the City that sleeps about 8. I will take care of it during the week...promise.
Morning Adults. I have the crud. Yuck. Early calls today and tomorrow, but at least tomorrow I am working from home.
Me no like the crud.
Two gifts left to buy, and then I am done. Both of them for assistants - one here in LA (who is my primary assistant and den mother for our department) and one in CR.
Achoo!
Bless you
I have one left. My 21 year old Goddaughter. I'm stumped. I have the yearly Hallmark Godchild ornament, but that's it. When I texted her asking what was on her list for Santa, I got back, "You don't have to buy me anything!" I wrote back, "WRONG ANSWER!" Her Mom and sister were no help, either. :::sigh:::

My sons asked for Visa gift cards. EZPZ

That is nice BB - we exchange cards between the adults. Nice to have Gap for January.
Y - that sucks to have the crud!
Client luncheon at club with my FAVORITE clients - so smart, talented, funny, nice!
That's actually what I was thinking for her. That way, it's not tied to just one store.

That's what little Boobs said when I asked which gift card he wanted. He feels this way they can spend it anyway they want. The ones I got charged $4.95 for the card. Some charged $5.95, so check before you buy them.
I've only ever noticed AMEX gift cards charging 5.95, not VISA, but I will definitely double check!

There is always cash. I was just looking for Sorel boots - no luck!
One last gift card to buy. I have an FSA that only works for glasses and dental - just got some nice, somewhat chunky Tom Ford glasses ordered on Tuesday - so that money is good and spent. My optometrist is one step above a mill, but I have been going there forever and they always treat me right - so I stay. The ladies were gushing over me and my new svelte frame on Tuesday.
And Mooney, I had not idea you were godmother royalty! (at least in TV terms).
Morning peeps! I can't wait to get out of here tonight and start my vaca!
I'm with you, Boobs! CAN. NOT. WAIT.
I'm working from home today. Going to The Nutcracker tonight at The State Theatre, and I was NOT dealing with 287 on the way home.

'Morning! Technically, the offices are open next Monday and Tuesday, but if I pop in at all it will only be for a few hours. Mama's got prezzies to shop for!
I've got Hubby's work Christmas party tonight (I usually bolt out of there within 20 minutes) and stopping by a Best Buddies gathering that one of our school parents is hosting tomorrow night. Sunday afternoon we have tickets to the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra's Messiah concert. Two of Moonchild's friends are in the chorus.
Tomorrow I have to help do some church things in the morning and then off to see my friend's theatre troupe's production of Little Women: The Musical. I still need to pick up some wine for Christmas Eve gifts and then food shopping for my Christmas day meal. I always look forward to hosting Christmas Day, but after about 2 hours with my family I repeat the same question, usually out loud, "Why do I do this?"
Mornin'
Tonight I'm getting together with the 3 colleagues I like (and 2 I tolerate) for an evening of what I'm calling "Bowling With Bourbon."
Hopefully this damn sinus headache will abate by then.
If not, tomorrow's gonna be hell.
*the cows in santa suits bring cocoa and turn on the Christmas/Sideshow display*
Who's doing Little Women? I saw that on Broadway.

Another early call, but working from home today.
Winning the battle of the crud, slowly but surely.
Not a lot of plans this weekend, but hopefully on the mend and playing with friends.
Mom is not feeling great, but venturing to Seattle with her honey for his Birthday -I hope she does OK. Her numbers are all over the place.
Have a great Friday and weekend Adults.
For those starting their holiday today, I have one word - Ratbastards!

Adults have a busy weekend.
Lunch with two of my best friends. Dinner with the couple that had co-hosted a party for 20 years but not this year.
Meeting accompanist tomorrow to prep for Wednesday. C19 arrives tomorrow so tree will go up Saturday night!
TGIF!

It's beginning to look like Christmas at the Brd house!
We always spent New Years Eve at a friends party, which they hosted for @ 20 years. They stopped hosting 3 years ago. Turns out, they had decided to divorce and no one knew until this past summer. They managed to hide it well!
I am hosting my annual game night for New Year's Eve. I missed it last year for the family cruise down the big mud, but will be doing it again this year.
About 10-15 folks - lots of laughter, libations and games, and then they are all gone by 12:30. Plenty of designated drivers.
Conference call for the past 2.5 hours...
