12 of 12 December

The last 12 of 12 of the year 2007 is here... My day started in Dresden and ended in Magdeburg, my hometown. 12 of 12 is the brain child of Chad Darnell. A happy Advent season to all 12 of 12'ers and everyone else. *hugs*



1) 00.26
My day ended (or started) with a horrible tummy ache. I took a painkiller and went straight to bed. Sleep didn't come for another two hours. Yikes...



2) 09.00
As you can see, my alarm was set for 10 am, but the guy who wanted to take the meter readings in my apartment woke me up. I greeted him at the door in my Tweety pj's. *profuseblushing*



3) 09.11
I take a look at the weather outside, instantly wishing that I hadn't...



4) 09.13
Retrieving today's egg from my Christmas calendar.



5) 09.17
Say hello to Chip. Or is it Dale?



6) 11.15
Working on a birthday surprise for a friend. I hope he doesn't check my blog. But I think I never gave him the link to my blog, so there's nothing to worry about...



7) 11.45
Now busy with preparations for my trip to the U.S., I also check the current exchange rates and they are very favorable. Yay!



8) 18.05
After 3 hours and 258 km I arrive at my parents' house.



9) 19.15
It's the season... On my way to a meeting of the choir association I am a member of. I'm actually a member of the executive board. Halted at a red light, I get a glimpse of the Christmas decorations of my hometown.



10) 22.18
Some cookie goodness. Makes the following part more enjoyable. *lol*



11) 22.20
Now that the choir association meeting is over, I'm re-reading my notes and trying to transform them into meeting minutes. Three pages need to be cut to at best one and a half... It was a very productive meeting!



12) 22.35
I'm throwing a little pre-Christmas dinner party for a few close friends from the choir on Monday and here's how my mom supports it. I won't have much time to go grocery shopping as I'll still be busy with concerts, so my mom offered to do it for me. :)



Bonus: Believe
After countless nights of going to bed at 3 am or even later, I strongly believe that once I'm done with my blog post I'll go hide under these comfy sheets and get a good night's sleep.

Update...


It seems that this puzzle isn't going as quickly as I thought it would. It's not because of it being an especially tricky one, but because I haven't found any time to work on it in the last few days. It's the season and it has me busy with choir stuff every weekend and most days of the week. Oh, and then there's school. Talk about priorities here... *lol*

Anyway, by now the kitties are complete. What's left is lots of grass and a few flowers, the latter being hastily assembled in a loose heap in the middle.

More soon, at the latest in five days...
