I am happy the holidays are drawing to a close. They were fun, but also very stressful. I am ready to wind it all down, get some projects and organizing lined up, clean my house, and get creative.
About the only gift I got creative with was this one: A Santa Sack filled with odds and ends for a friend from work. I got the actual sack at The Container Store, but I could just as easily have sewn it myself. I think I should make them for next year - they'd be cute to store things in after Christmas.
We had Cheeseball Sunday at work. I made a French Quarter Cheeseball that was ridiculous. I took the leftovers home and it was quickly scarfed up by my peeps. This was a definite Pinterest win!
We also had salami and pepperoni, dill dip, a Hawaiian style cheese ball, Cannoli Dip, veggies and crackers - all lovingly arranged under the No Food in this Area sign. We're rebels on my shift.
My sweet little stocking stuffer of 1998. He turned 17 on Christmas Day. How is that possible?
He makes a fun lunch buddy.
Why do I get these magazines? I never subscribe to them so they go directly into the trash each month, plastic wrap and all. Seems kinda wasteful.
We let Sugar go the Monday after Christmas and it was the saddest thing I have had to do in a long time. The vet and staff were so kind to us - a middle aged couple crying like babies. It was a somber end to a challenging year. We are looking forward to a clean slate New Year!

So sorry about your sweet cat....Two year ago we had to do the same during the holidays - there were months where I would reach to my side to pet Pandora, only to be reminded she was gone. I would love another cat, but don't want the responsibility, especially the worries when we travel. I keep telling everyone I want to "cat-sit" if they know of anyone who needs a cat sitter!! Happy New Year
