Took a sick day on Thursday (having problems with my Crohn's disease) and I have tons of sick days in bank which I have to go through and director is wanting to pay our sick /overtime banks so I prefer to use them up. Did some catching up on happyhomaker blogs that I had not yet read. I did my yoga stretching while listening to Christmas music.
Here are 2 yoga 20-min workouts I like Seated hip opener and Yoga for opening the shoulders.
Friday night we went to a local festival 'Rythmes et Papilles' for a few hours , 2 violinists and a guitar player around a fireplace, was nice.
Saturday we went to my parent's campground to have supper with them (2,5 hours to and fro). My dad was 75 on the 23rd and we went for his birthday. My niece and nephew were there with them for the weekend and my cousin and his girlfriend had come to have lunch with them. (left at 10:30 am and back at 10:30 pm)
Sunday we left at 9:00 to pick up my son and his girlfriend and came back here at 3:00 pm after going shopping with them. They wanted to buy a freezer (my husband will pick it up with the truck on Monday night), and pick up the changing table that her dad had bought them for the baby. We told them we'd buy them the rocking chair so we shopped around for that - they will go back to buy the one they want. We also went to costco's as we had LOTS of staples to buy.

A simple pleasure
Being able to take days off easily (of course I have a sick bank, an overtime bank and a vacation bank I have to respect).
Looking forward to
Having lunch with some coworkers as another one of our group is changing jobs.. many have left in the last year :(
