No, I don't mean Advent. I mean the long wait for the Direct T.v. technician to finally get out here and hook us up with High Definition access. Whew! I ordered this service back on November 28th! Long story short, they messed up my order, brought out the wrong box, never came to pick it up and almost had to cancel today! I called the tech manager and said I was havin' none of that!
While we waited, my middle son helped make some oatmeal cookies, 72 to be exact. My youngest made up the gingerbread man dough and put it in the fridge. By the time we received High Def we had made enough cookies to put in a bag for the young tech who was very polite and helpful.
I ran off the grocery to pick up some coconut for macaroons that I had to add to my baking list at the last minute. Tonight we are off to a Knights of Columbus dinner and we'll be bringing baked Macaroni and Cheese.
Tomorrow..home school group, more baking, library and more Christmas decorations to put up.
It's time to do the Jesse Tree! The kids are waiting on me for once!

What fun! I am making my macaroons tomorrow!
Enjoy!
I think when we get to HI, I don't want either, but you have to buy into some kind of programming to get the basics ABC etc. Stinks, but that's the way of the world these days. I can always turn off the telly.
Of course, depending upon how quickly we get service set up, a few months without feels horrible.
