November Holiday

While living in Calgary I never had a week off of school that I wasn't prepared for. We got a couple days after parent teacher interviews, christmas, easter, Spring break, may long, all those holidays I already knew about. I moved back to Edmonton and what should I behold but a whole week off in the middle of November. I have never ever had a week off in November. I am so excited about the possibilities of next week.

I can go hunting during the week. This means less people will be chasing the deer around and I might actually have a chance to shoot something.

I'm planning to visit alot of people. I want to go to Calgary and see my former colleagues. Even on a modified calendar they still have school next week for 3 days. Their week off was a week ago. Bonus for me. I have some stuff I took with me by accident that I found in my teacher boxes which I must return.

I'm planning to do some sewing. I've left my machine on the dining room table for over a week and it's mocking me. I have a dress, PJ pants, some baby change table covers and a bag to make. I think I should be able to knock some of these off of the list.

Mr. RTD wants me to read some new books. The first by Brandon Sanderson. He's the guy finishing Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series. Apparently his books are better. Also there's some odd dragon alternate history book and I found one the other day by Anne Bishop that I haven't even read yet. And I'm positive I bought it in July for my birthday. I can't believe I haven't burned through it yet.

Knitting also looms.(*HAHA I made a pun and I didn't realize it until I posted!) I must finish a commission piece before I head to Calgary, It's for my principal. I have a shawl to finish. I have sweaters to start and toques to make for cousins.

I'm beginning to think I won't have time for it all. And I haven't even mentioned all the time I'll probably spend on the Interwebs. It is my downfall.

Oh well. Plans are made, let's see how they follow through. I'm going to have a hutterite chocolate chip cookie. And then maybe a rolo.....

WHAT!! I'm going to the Gym tonight!!
