Expected later: 2' and up to 1 cm of snow
Our mild weather is still continuing but now there is a chance of a bad weather, either heavy rain or snow, on Christmas Day in southern Ontario area, and maybe here as well. This could impact flights coming out of Toronto. But it's too early yet to panic. They've been wrong before and they aren't really sure just what's expected, so we'll just have to wait and see.
Yesterday was spent picking up gift boxes at the $ store to facilitate wrapping those hard to wrap items. I also have to package up cookies for the lady at work on Monday. Sunday may well be a wrapping day. Then the flyers came out. Now it's time to go through and make my grocery list for the holidays. Now we're getting down to the crunch. Of course if we get a big storm and the family can't get here, we'll be inviting all the neighbours in for something to eat! But I'm confident it will all work out.
Lloyd isn't sure yet just what days he'll have off and he may well be working some extra hours. We don't know for sure, as no one has told him anything definite, so we'll just have to wait on that too. We'll plan all our meals for 4:00 in the afternoon in case he has to go to work every night, but hopefully that won't happen.
Other than getting everything ready, not a lot is going on. Brenda has been busy at home as well, so we've not had much chance to get together. Meghan(1) is arriving on Saturday so they're hoping to have most things done by then. I think some of the baking will be saved for Meg to help with and I'm sure she won't mind that. That's one disadvantage of living so far away from Patti and the kids, we can't get together to do those kinds of things. But I'm sure there will be some quality time with the kids in the kitchen while they're here.
We've recently acquired a colour copier to use for a while, that will also do double sided documents. I have a few thing I need to print, some of those being three years worth of blogs. I'm going to spend the next little while making sure they are all up to date and formatted so they can be printed. It will be nice to have those finished. I also have some recipes I'd like to print off and put together. We'll be making good use of this piece of equipment over the next little while.
