Advent 2025 - Day 2
Dec. 2nd, 2025 09:31 pmMy friend Evie came today and took the rest of my wares to school. She also promised to organize some of her pupils to help carrying all that stuff down to the school's dining room tomorrow, where the fair will take place.
Have I mentioned that I'm really excited? This fair is the big annual event of my life (since there isn't really much else happening), and I'm always looking forward to it. The fact that I've made so many edible things this year means that if they don't sell, we can simply use them ourselves - or I'll give them away as Christmas gifts. It's a win-win situation. The only things I'm a bit doubtful about are the sewing kits - they require specific interest that might or might not be present. The felt ones sold like crazy two years ago, but they were more handy. I created these to put the empty hand creme boxes to good use - we'll see the effect.
We also had choir practice today, and it wasn't fun at all. Somebody came to the "glorious" idea that we should read out loud the translation of all the English and Latin texts right before singing the actual piece. On the concert. For some reason only one other people rather than me found this idea completely hare-brained. God, I'll be happy when the concert is over. I'm definitely gonna taking a break from choir practice after that. Several months of break in fact, and then I'll be seriously considering whether I should return at all. I'm a founding member, have spent 21 years in this choir, but I'm just about done.
