my first week of xmas holidays is done, and i'm thrilled that i still have 9 days left. this has been a good week. really fun and restful.
last night we had christmas part 1 with brendan's family. a full day of hangouts, gifts and eats. i'm really fortunate to have in-laws that i really like.
our bread machine is currently disabled since i can't find the paddle anywhere. it's really annoying because it shouldn't have wandered off and i feel that i should simply be where it is in my head. my search to find it resulted in me beginning a thorough cleaning of the kitchen. it's not quite done yet, and it isn't the room that needs the most attention right now, but i'm pleased with my progress nonetheless.
what do people mean when they say 'eating greens'? do they just mean fresh veggies, or are they referring to green vegetables specifically? and how many green veggies are there? i feel like i should eat more greens. i can't eat apples. i had one recently and it ended badly.
have you ever heard some news before that's bad for someone else, but good for you? emma left a message on my phone the other day, telling me that one of my colleagues is leaving the company at the end of the year. i think she was let go. i really like her as a person, and i worry about her health-care because she lives in the states. but it will make it easier for me to do my job without her. i'm divided really. sheesh, listen to me, i'm all talking about work and i'm on vacation.
for christmas, ben and meg gave me a book of 642 things to write about. i think i'll try tackling those on pspd. for my birthday they gave me a biography of ani difranco. i'm pretty excited. i think it will be a very interesting read. i like used books. especially when parts have been highlighted or underlined. it gives insight into what another person was thinking, or what caught their eye. ironcially, i hate reading books that I'VE underlined and highlighted, because it makes it hard for me to be objective and read it with fresh eyes. so form a new opinion.
you stick around now, it may show.

Greens actually means green things. Especially leafy green things: kale, spinach, swiss chard, bok choy, arugula, various types of lettuce, dandelion greens, collard greens, etc. You can put a bunch of these things in the blender, pour in some pineapple juice and blend it up. It's super high in calcium, folic acid, iron and all sorts of vitamins and minerals.
