Wow, I actually slept almost 12 hours last night. I probably would've slept longer had Marcus' alarm not gone off. I thought maybe I had missed the iPod contest on KOSI, but I hadn't. I still didn't win it though. DAMN!
So, tomorrow is the big Christmas Tree Hunt. Should be fun. There are pictures of previous excursions here, here and here! The only bad part is that I have to do two days' worth of dough this afternoon so that I can go. Ugh! Not looking forward to that.
When Marcus and I put up the outside lights last weekend, he accidentally broke the light where I had some of them plugged in. I was looking at it a couple of days ago to see if it could be repaired. It can't because it's really cheap plastic. I had to leave it alone because there were tons of paper wasps hanging around and one even was trying to get into the fixture. I'm really beginning to find these types of wasps to be the bane of my existance. I knew I had to get it repaired so that I could turn my lights on, so yesterday I purchased a replacement light at Home Depost ($3, put it on my HD charge). It was rather cold and windy yesterday, so there were no wasps about. Now I know why. After finding the right breaker in the fuse box and taking the screw out that held the old fixture on, many wasps came pouring out from behind the fixture. I grabbed the wasp spray, but being allergic to wasp stings, I couldn't bring myself to get close enough to spray. So, I asked Marcus to do it before he left for work this morning. Luckily, they hadn't had time to actually build a nest in there yet, so I'm hoping more don't come back before I can get the new one up. That'll be on the agenda when it warms up a little.
OK, I'd better get going. Got to get the house cleaned up and get some of the Christmas stuff up so there'll be room to work on the tree tomorrow. Everybody have a great day!
