As we got the car back yesterday (complete with a nice new fuel pump), I was able to go to choir practice today.Â? It went well — apparently I have a couple of the pieces memorized.

Afterwards, I hit up Subway for lunch, Pamida for some Christmas stuff, Town Pump for gas, Albertson’s for fruit and some Irish Coffee Pie ingredients, the local quilt shop for fleece, the local coffeeshop for a gift certificate, a parishioner’s house for something Victorian looking for tomorrow night, Pamida AGAIN for barrettes (my bangs aren’t long enough to stay pulled back), and Albertsons AGAIN for spray gel.

Herbal Essences is evil.Â? They took away their normal spray gel and replaced it with regular stuff.Â? Their spray gel was the best thing on the planet!!!Â? Evil company!!!!

Tomorrow is the Christmas program at church and then Carols Round the Table in town.Â? It should be crazy busy but that’s the nature of this time of year.
