I like sleeping in, but his morning the dogs got restless. I think they were hungry so we got up at 6:30. I got an hour of extra sleep, though, so I’ll take it.

I spent most of the morning straightening up and doing laundry. Then I went to a vintage pop sale, which wasn’t as interesting as I had hoped. Still, I bought a sweatshirt from a guy who gave me a long explanation of his logo which included a description of his education and career plan. I love talking to random folks. It rarely disappoints.

The rest of my day was spent checking out the not so busy stores, washing blankets, and watching Christmas movies. I’m trying to get as many in as possible since Patrick will be back in a couple of days. I’m enjoying having complete control over the tv.

I’m thankful for new bedding, a clean desk, and the smell of pine trees.
