Some mornings when the better course would seem to be just not getting up, even for coffee, what motivates me out of bed is knowing I get to open another day on my Jacquie Lawson Advent calendar. A little sad, but you know, whatever works.

H just went out and bought a whole string of lights just for four replacement bulbs on our "pre-lit" tree--that has two swaths of impenetrable dark. Ooh! One of those just lit up.

Last night's supper was a giant bowl of steamed broccoli dusted with sea salt. Nom! I should do that more often.

I have not done cards. I have not sent the few presents I need to send. We blew off going to the movies this afternoon as neither of us could be arsed to care enough to go. I am overcome with ennui and the urgent need to nap. A brisk walk in the bracing air does not energize, it merely enhances the nappishness. Moar coffee just makes me both jittery *and* nappish, possibly entertaining for the observer. From here, not so much.

Perhaps I should open tomorrow's day on the advent calendar. Or go back and start at Day One again, that might be fun. Or nap. Naaap.

Whatever it takes to get you up, honey. (Though naps are not to be underrated. Sometimes they're a necessary thing!)

I always like a bit of vinegar on my broccoli. (It's how we eat it in my family *g* My brother-in-law, nearly 20 years in our family, is still weirded out by it.)

Mmm. Broccoli sounds good, now. Really good, actually.

*hugs you tight*

It may have been the best broccoli ever! We'd been coasting on protein and cookies and oatmeal--time for something green.

I got your card--so cute! Thank you so much for thinking of me. *holds on tight*
