I haven't written in a month of Sundays, but what the heck, things have been a stir around here and the last thing I have thought about doing is blogging. Sorry my fellow bloggers. Christmas was uneventful, it passed by without too much fanfare. It was my first year downtown.
The second weekend in December was the annual candlelighting in downtown Swan City. It was truly magical. There were bagged candles everywhere and horsedrawn carriage rides. They had tours thru my condo, which was fun. Mr. Man was quite the host and offered our guests hot apple cider and showed them around. The second night I did not open because it was a Sunday night and I wanted to take Mr. Man on a carriage ride, which was fabulous.
But the best time I had was after candlelight there was a party at the Ware's and it was the party of the year. There was a cool band playing and lots of interesting folks to visit with and lots of good food and beverages. The M.U. kept Mr. Man and I told her I'd be home around 11:30 or so, well I came stumbling home at 2am. The good doctor that just moved into my condo kept making me Crown Royals and I just couldn't say no and the time slipped away from me. And when I say stumble, I mean Stumble, with a capital S. The M.U. was not impressed. I was horizontal the the better part of the day the next day, not to mention I did not make it to church during the holiday season, which is very unusual for me.
The Absent Father got Mr. Man for a week the day after Christmas and me and Mom headed to Dallas for an adult trip. We did nothing but shop and cook and relax and sleep. It was wonderful!!! I needed a reprieve like that and came home refreshed and ready to take on the world again. New Years Eve was barrels of fun. Lee had some friends over. The thing I love about gay guys is they love to have fun. They are not snippy or talk bad about people, they love to laugh and joke around with each other, plus they love sisters and mothers. The M.U. slipped away about 11PM to go to bed. They wanted to go wake her up by jumping on her bed. I put a stop to that quick enough......Remi had to work, but got there just in time for a New Years toast.
On the way home from Dallas, we stopped in Clinton to get Mr. Man. Of course, if he had the choice, he would have gone with us to Dallas. But it is more important for him to have a relationship with his father at this juncture. The day we drove home, Friday, the 2nd was my birthday and I can think of no better was to spend my birthday than driving and spending time with my mom, she is my best bud!!!!
I am busy in the office closing out 2008 files, it is alot of work, so I have been busy as a little bee in the office. I spent $168 at Office Depot just buying supplies to change out everything....Yikes!!!!
So, 2009 will bring about many changes for me and business. Which I will write more about later. I smell change in the air and I smell the sweet aroma of gardenias!
Peace and God Bless!
