So my tooth was cracked after all

[cornerofmadness]

I haven't been whining about it as you have to be tired of me whining all the time. However, that tooth I broke back in March and was bonded in May? Well the bonding cracked and crap has been getting trapped in there. I knew it felt wrong. Hopefully this time it's fixed correctly.

But that took out a chunk of my day and the same will be true of tomorrow and Friday. I am not ever going to get this place in shape. It's frustrating me. It's worsening my depression and I'm just so over it.

I did get to spend a 10$ gift card from my publisher to buy some new ebooks I'll never read. I like that their webpage says hey already purchased this because damn if I didn't just rebuy something I own from a different book club. head desk. SOmeone will be getting that for Christmas.

Hey flight rising. is welcoming new players if you want to come play with dragons.It's a bit more interactive than dragon cave. I have all the genes and will be happy to sell you baby dragons cheap with nice genes (colors is a whole other thing). I'm cornerofmadness there too.

And here is a Ted talk by J.K. Rowling and the lessons failure teaches. Worth the listen to.

I barely have the energy or heart to give music for Day 14 so I'll use another favorite group who just so happened to have a Christmas special tonight, Pentatonix. In some ways I'm shocked at their popularity because of how unusual their music is (again often a cappella) and that's not normally the sort of thing that flies. I've been following them for years. I believe evil_little_dog was the first to point them out to me. Here is one of their new originals which is actually much unhappier than their usual but that's how I feel.

and here is one of my all time favorite Christmas songs. There is something about this song that I simply love. Speaking of Christmas, I did get most of my cards out today.

I look at my place and feel completely overwhelmed at this point. My living room, which was the 'best' room, now has boxes taking up the floor - unfilled boxes, mind, that I brought home for packing, then remembered that I can't afford to move and.

Anyway, I'm glad your cards are ready to be mailed!

Tomorrow night, I'll probably be working on cookies. I still need to make purchases for people and figure out what I have and what I don't have for everyone. And get 3-4 packages ready to mail, too. Maybe I'll use one of the boxes or two or so for that.

Oh geez to that and mine is filled with stuff from Grandma's that I didn't want to give up but literally have no room for.

Most of the cards, none of the gifts

Mom is making the cookies because I can't get my shit together to get home

Yeah, I get that. I was thinking, what can I get rid of? And the hoarder inside screamed, "NOTHING."

I realized it's the 15th today and I need to mail things. Oops.

Mom and Sis KP made two (three?) batches of cookies today. I'll make some tonight. Tomorrow night. Not tonight.

Yep I'm right there with you. (though the giant pile of junk mail that was living on the couch is in the recycler now)

Yeap tell me about it.

I'll make the galettes and lady locks

Oh, man. Good luck with the cracked tooth. Those are horrible to endure.
Thanks for the Ted talk link - plan to listen at lunch. And thanks for sharing so many great links this year. I've learned a lot thanks to you.
Love Pentatonix too. Their rendition of Mary Did You Know is a favorite of mine. Then again, I'm also partial to Barenaked Ladies rendition of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
Can't seem to hit the spirit this year. Maybe with more songs and a break in a few days...

Mine rarely hurt unless I've lost a hunk of tooth an the ragged edge of metal filling is there slicing my tongue. I do this rather often.

You're welcome. My friend Betty is the one who really gets all those links. It's very helpful.

I haven't had the spirit since I lived in FL. It seemed to kill it entirely. I enjoy Pentatonix's stuff

You went home for the holidays! Pfft. :D
