Today I felt like a little mouse scurrying here and there getting ready for winter. Last night I got a call from Justin with one more Christmas request, so after my 9:15 am Monday morning class at the gym, I headed to the post office in East Falmouth to send the little package and cards to friends. I go to East Falmouth as I have had the best luck there in getting things out of Falmouth and on the way to Puerto Rico from there. The doll house that Mark made for Ollie was disassembled and sent from there and it arrived in a timely manner. Then Ollie decided he would send all of the doll house furniture and dolls to Coco, and they arrived today. What I sent today was something that belonged to Granddad for Ziggy and that is supposed to arrive on Wednesday. It was small and was affordable to send it Express. I will be amazed if it gets there, but no matter, the US Postal Service has been amazing over the past three months. They are my heros. On my way home from the post office, I did some grocery and drug store shopping, and somehow it was 1:30 pm. I worked on finishing up the holiday cards to friends, started on the cards to family, and got one more window winterized. I went to a late afternoon Tai Chi class, and here I am still scurrying around to get things done. I start tomorrow with a routine dental appointment and then go to A Christmas Celtic Sojourn which is off-Cape in New Bedford with Bruce and Jane Woodin. We will get home late tomorrow night and the holiday preparations will continue on Wednesday. Only six days and 45 minutes until Christmas!
