It’s finally here! Christmas Eve! Are you excited yet???? <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> “Do you see her yet?” Not yet, but I’m not surprised, Schrodinger said. Lai said they were going to go out for a Christmas Eve drink after work. The CrossCat jumped down from the window and looked at Drew. How much more time do you …
(advent) December 23 – The day after the Ball
Yep, it’s counting down to the final stretch! <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Molly yawned and considered snuggling back into sleep for a bit. Aunt Margie was opening late, considering everything that had happened the night before, so she didn’t have to get up. All in all, spending the morning in bed with her two favorite boys sounded like …
(advent) December 22 – The Snow Queen’s Ball!
Molly smoothed the front of her dress and picked up her evening bag. Turning to Schrodinger, she said, “Well, what do you think?” I think you look beautiful, Schrodinger said. Drew won’t be able to keep his eyes off you. “If he’s there, you mean.” But she smiled and turned back to the mirror one …
(advent) December 21 – snow
Slowly, surely, I’m getting caught up! Slowly! <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Molly looked around the kitchen one last time. “I think everything’s all set.” It’s not like you haven’t written everything down for them anyways, Schrodinger observed from his stool. You’d think you were leaving for a week or more, not just one day. “Well, I wanted to …
(advent) December 20 – only 5 days left!
Whatever shall we do when it’s over??? 😉 <><><><><><><><><><><><><> Drew? Do you have a moment? “Sure,” Drew said, blinking. He’d never heard Ember actually sound so…concerned. “Let me just throw a coat on.” He’d been sitting at the computer in the library, going over his Facebook and looking at the pictures from yesterday. There …
(advent) December 19 – Gingerbread!
I need to make some gingerbread…. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> “There, we’re all set!” Molly tucked the last box of gingerbread into the large picnic baskets and looked around the kitchen. “Is there anything else we need?” “You’re procrastinating,” Sue said. She picked up one of the baskets. “Come on!” “Okay, okay!” Molly grabbed her coat from the …
(advent) December 18 – Tuesday
Don’t be surprised if there are several entries tonight. I’m trying to catch up. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> “At least it’s good and cold today,” Molly said, as she helped Schrodinger put his coat on. “And it has been for the last week, so we don’t have to worry about falling through the ice.” As if Indi would …
(advent) Monday’s story – and running!
I ran tonight again, but this time, for the first time in about three years, I ran on a track. Not on a treadmill. We’ll see how my knees feel tomorrow. Then I came home and wrote. I’ll be writing tomorrow morning too, and I’m hoping to be caught up by Friday. That’s the goal, …
(advent) December 16 – Sunday
I’m sorry – this weekend was NOT my best, but I’m working on catching up, now that I’ve beaten my migraine back and I can eat again. This is the 16th – I’m hoping to be caught up by Thursday! <><><><><><><><><><><><><> “Do you two have any idea what you might have done?” Drew and Pavel …
(advent) A winter wedding!
If I had to get married again, I think maybe I’d like a wedding like this. <><><><><><><><><><><><><> It was, Molly thought, the perfect winter’s day for a wedding. Overnight, snow had fallen in a soft white blanket that covered Carter’s Cove in pristine white, like a bridal veil. She and Schrodinger stood with the Trio …
