1. I've finished the cross-grain binding of the quiet book. The last stretch was quite brutal, in some places I had to stitch through seven(!) layers (felt, double-sided tape and the cross-grain ribbon), but it is done now. I promised my poor fingers a break tomorrow; the day after I'll start with the spine and the inner binding.

2. I've actually written today, for the first time since the last [livejournal.com profile] picowrimo session! Not all too much, less than two pages (half a scene actually, but it's new stuff, and I'm actually quite content with it. If you are interested, check out the latest entry of [livejournal.com profile] otherworlds_lib. It is for Chapter 09 of "A Stitch of Time", my Torchwood/ST-Enterprise crossover, in which the Ninth Doctor saves Ianto after CoE, to help straight things in the 22nd century.

3. I've got a very cute, belated Christmas card from [livejournal.com profile] aeris444. Thank you so much! Now if I know how many of my 11 cards I've sent out have actually reached their destination! So far, I only know of 5. :(

4. I even managed to have a nice, long nap in the afternoon, since we didn't have to cook today. Long live the leftovers!

5. In the terms of social life, I had a nice phone chat with my friend Evie.

All in all, an excellent day, even though a rainy one. I hope the rain stops, or at least eases, tomorrow, when I'll have to leave the house twice!

You got loads of things accomplished! And yeah, leftovers are such a lifesaver. I'm right now cooking glass noodles into the last of the soup (pho) I made on Friday. Just barely enough broth left for a package of noodles.

The good thing about soup is, it can always bee watered up and extended with added ingredients. *g*

Yeah! It is very handy. I was originally going to fry the noodles but we were tired and hungry so we just ate it as noodle soup

Noodle soup sounds good.

Hurrah for having written. I have got as far as thinking about what is happening — but not written any of it down.

I got a Christmas card today that was posted in Spain exactly 5 weeks ago...

I've lost count who's already got my cards and who hasn't, I'm afraid. Did you get yours?

No — I'm sorry, it hasn't arrived. The postal services have become almost farcical...

Too bad, there was a small felt ornament in it. :(
But it might arrive yet — [livejournal.com profile] elwenlj got hers, so perhaps yours is still on the way.

We had sleet here, but clear blue skies today. I shall also be eating left over casserole and rice for dinner tonight.

Five cards is better than the two of mine which arrived at their destination only. I am still furious...
