Today

Today was a productive lazy day.  Is that possible?  It is in my book! 

I got to sleep in a little bit, and woke up to this:

I am quickly learning that this is a typical winter morning in central/northern California!

I made my way over to my church for a cleaning assignment.  I think there were 8 of us that showed up and we finished cleaning in about 1-1/2 hours.  I cleaned all the windows in the building and also worked on the kitchen... we sorted through all the cupboards and reorganized/threw away a bunch of stuff and it looks so much better now!

I got my car washed... it was desperately needed.

I went grocery shopping for enough food to last me through Wednesday, when I leave for Utah!

I watched a Christmas movie.  I absolutely love Christmas movies!  But let me tell you there are slim pickings on Netflix and I left my other movies at home in Utah.  So today's choice was ABC Family's "Snow"... not much to get excited about and super cheesy, but it was cute.

For whatever reason I had a sudden urge to make cupcakes, so I went with it and I tried out my cake decorating set that I won from my family's Favorite Things exchange back in July!  I think they turned out pretty cute, except I couldn't get the frosting to turn red.  So my Christmas cupcakes are pink and green instead!

Today I also read a good chunk of my current book, Uglies by Scott Westerfeld.  I'm only about a fourth of the way into it, but so far it has a similar feel to the Hunger Games series, which I absolutely loved.  I'm excited to get into this new series!

And on a random note, type "let it snow" into Google and enjoy!

Merry Christmas!
