Still home, but will be heading to the office to send out a couple orders. Have a couple errands to run, then H and I have a party to go to tonight.
I have to do an app for the party tonight (well, I don't HAVE to, but my H eats so much that I always feel like I have to contribute to the food - and other people bring things, too) and I don't know what to do. I'm toying with bacon wrapped dates or chicken bacon wraps. My mom will do the wrapping so it's not that big a deal... I don't know. Anyone think of anything delicious and/or easier?

H is currently dying from the stomach plague so I'm busy with the kids, trying to be Christmas-y.
At present we are busy taste-testing the chocolate chips. Sometimes they go bad and you have to make sure they are good enough for baking. Now that the bag is open, the likelihood is that they will go bad even faster, so regular taste-testing is crucial.

Can this be the randoms thread too?
I came in the office this morning to find the pens my promo vendor dropped off for me, missing. She dropped off five fun colored pens with a goodie basket last week. They were lined up right by my monitors. Today, I walk in and I see four are missing.
This is pissing me off royally. Yes, they're just pens but someone came into my cubicle and took four pens off my desk. It's not like they were sitting by the doorway, they were sitting right next to my monitor.

I'm doing cranberry Brie bites for a party tonight. Frozen phyllo shells, store bought cranberry relish, cubed brie. Bake until bubbly. Done.
I am sorta working today. I had a few last-minute client emails to do, some market analysis for potential clients come January, and then I am working on my taxes so I'm not overwhelmed with shit come January.
But I'm going to leave shortly to run errands, and I have a dentist appt so I'm barely working.

I am here, but I am not happy. I woke up with a headache and a sore throat. I'm hoping that the milkshake I'm totally getting at lunch will help one of those things.
Here....I'm the idiot who didn't bother to look at a calender and ask for the day off way back in Oct. We've had a couple people call in sick today, BAER. Yeah right.
I'm here, attempting not to become a widow by Christmas. MH is working from home today because he has some sort of paper deadline (don't care!), and my understanding was that he was going into the office this morning to do this. But no! He decided to work from home and he's all "the kids are bothering me! I'm trying to get this done." And I'm like, "they are wired for Christmas, I've got stuff to do downstairs (his office is downstairs), which means inevitably the kids will be wandering down there off and on throughout the day), so just fucking deal!"
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
On the upside, I was able to just take Scarlett with me to run a few errands this morning and didn't have to drag Jackson with us too. Scarlett loves to shop; Jackson not so much.
I'm taking the kids to a movie this afternoon to get out of the house and away from Captain Jerkface.
