I've done a terrible thing.

I forgot to drink coffee this morning. I got up before I wanted to. I figured that since I was up I might as well get a move-on with the morning chores. They were actually last week's morning chores but I never got around to them. Number 1 on the list was picking up the Christmas cards I'd had printed. I threw on a clean pair of pants, a scarf on my head, a coat and headed out. As I was out and about it started misting. I quickly ran through the list of must-do-today's and decided I could tackle a number of them by going to Target. It turned out to be a good plan. I headed home to discover that Neall had called in sick. I made chili for lunch (instead of dinner) while the family played the wii. I wrote our holiday letter (which I will post here eventually) and came up with a tentative list of who needed to have an actually mailed envelope. Through all of this it didn't occur to me why I was rubbing my temples and seeking out the liqui-gels. No coffee. So, coffee with chili for lunch ;). Stay warm friends.
