New job and old ones

I am starting a new job on Monday. My contract ran out Nov 30 and I was offered a permanent full-time position this week. Yay! I love that place! I will be heading over tomorrow to sign the papers. That's a mighty nice Christmas present.
Speaking of... I spent a bit of time shopping and what nice things there are out there! I really ought to go out more!

My to-do list is shrinking nicely:
- create and send Christmas cards Created and started sending
- create and wrap Christmas presents Created and started wrapping
- lunch with friends scheduled for Thursday
- practice the Secret hmmm... need to work on that one
- read Pullman's trilogy His Dark Material (which includes The Golden Compass, made famous by the movie of the same name) done! way cool
- de-cluttering my home office half-done
- scanning and printing old photo albums and negatives done with old photos; not started on negatives
- helping my mom to tidy her home for her Christmas party (a good excuse to catch up) planned for Thursday-Friday
- going out for a movie I think that will have to wait until the holidays proper

... and lots of rest. I am good at napping. I really enjoy that part...

Congrats on the full-time position! You totally deserve it.

I know what you mean about naps.

We'll have to go for a celebratory lunch when I get back.
