Hello, team, and welcome to December. Late start today because it slipped my mind what day of the week it's supposed to be.

We're on an extended weekend here in Romania and I had great ambitions of deep cleaning my kitchen but I woke up today and thought nah, today is not the day. I did do a marathon dusting, vacuuming and mopping of the apartment and I am waiting for the bedroom floor to dry before I change the sheets. I can't really relax in a messy house and my sleep was affected by it the past two nights.

Boyfriend is away visiting his family. I was going to visit mine as well but my uncle is staying with my parents and there's nowhere for me to sleep so we'll see if I get there next week. Dad is doing better for the most part, he's been active and he's busy with choir practice leading up to Christmas.

Speaking of Christmas, I started thinking about gifts and man, it's hard. My parents are getting knives and a sharpener because I nearly amputate my fingers every time I visit. I have books picked out for my reader friends. A lot of people will be getting candles and wine. Boyfriend is getting a spa day. Need to think what to get his parents and that one's hard, especially his dad. Boyfriend is zero help in this department, of course. How are you guys doing on Christmas preparations?

No workout yet for today, I think I'll do a total body routine before I go to sleep so I hopefully sleep through the night.

I had no inspiration for quotes but I hope something cute will lift your mood if you need it.

Have a great day, team!
