I have been really looking forward to this holiday, especially since I decided to take Wednesday off as well. I initially had planned to bake a pie and work on my final project for school. Now, I also have to deal with a plumber, who is putting in our new garbage disposal. And, I am going to pick up a second pie that I pre-ordered, because I knew I wasn't going to feel like baking two. Plus, I kind of want to go to the big liquor store and pick up a nice bottle of wine. I have a feeling that I am going to be more exhausted than if I had gone to work.
I had a boatload to get done today at work. And, amazingly, I got most of it all done. As a matter of fact, I was kind of feeling like I was in a productive groove. If I hadn't had an appointment I needed to leave for, I probably would have worked late. I am feeling a bit stressed by my big project, which is scheduled for cut over to production on Saturday, December 15. On the other hand, I have been doing a pretty good job at tackling the hurdles that have come down the pike on this thing, and THAT has been noticed by upper management.
Life really is a balance.

the "big" liquor store? what is that?
In NH, you can buy beer and wine in the grocery store. However, the selection is kind of mainstream. If you want anything interesting you have to go to one of the State liquor stores. Some have so-so wine selections. We have one in Nashua that has a fabulous wine selection.
However, we opted for the specialty wine store that was on the way home from the pie shop. We found a nice Portuguese white wine, which was exactly what I was looking for.
oh.... see, here in CA you can buy any kind of liquor at the supermarket. hell, you can even buy alcohol at gas stations. if you can believe that.
