I love taking pictures at the Windsor Ladies Christmas Tea.

In my Timehop app on my smartphone, I can scroll through and see what I was doing on this date "x" number of years ago.  

A year ago today, I was at Windsor's Christmas Tea.  I snapped about 20 photos.

The 2016 Windsor Tea was held 2 days ago.  Guess how many pictures I snapped?  ONE!  One picture of my snowman place setting.  And I am sad to admit I did not even get around to every table to oooooh and aaaaaah over the pretties.  

Why did this happen?  What's happened to Angie Good?

1. We have no engineering supervisor.  We have a FABULOUS new boss but no #2 guy.  I supposed I should not say "no #2 guy" considering I work at the poop plant.  We have no 2nd in command which means the 2nd in command duties (laughing again...duties...#2...I digress) fall on to me and my FAB new boss.  It's fine.  Well, those are the 2 words I tell myself to cope with the extra workload. THE BONUS OF THIS IS ----->  I HAVE LEARNED A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE FOLLOWING...

And the list goes on...

So it's an okay thing...but it's #1 on the list of why I did not take pictures and why I am stressed out.

2. The other half of our table planning committee is so very last minute that it drives me to the brink of my sanity.  You see - our table had knitted dishcloths as favors.  Knitted for this because I planned ahead...like 3 weeks ahead and I worked on them as the days drew closer and closer to our UNPLANNED table.  When I say that this un-planning stressed me out, I mean, I sat at work on Monday and could feel my heart thumping and finally had to tell the un-planner, "Please stop texting me about the tonight's tea."  Not. Even. Kidding.

3. Several random stressful things happened over the past week that I can't even remember what all they were...and at the time I thought to myself, Self, these would make great blog posts.  Angie un-cut.  And now I have forgotten them.

This one thing I know - tonight I am sitting in my living room.  The stereo is off.  The tv is off.  The only things that are "on" are the computer and my white Christmas tree lights.  That's it.  Celia is dashing here and there playing with who knows what.  Otherwise - it's peaceful and quiet.  

Can I tell you that I heard we might have a winter storm starting on Friday and going through Sunday and my little stressed-out heart went pitter-patter because I would love to be snowed in.  I WOULD LOVE IT SOOO VERY MUCH!!!!!!  I have groceries and yarn and patterns to knit.  I have fabric to sew.  Oooh that reminds me - I want to make a couple more pillowcases for some littles in my life.  I should hit JoAnn's either tomorrow or Friday right after work.  

Sorry I don't have any tea pictures to post.  It was a lovely evening.  Our speaker implored us to be forgiving, be loving, and be encouraging during this holiday season.
