Dead's Sunday (the one before Advent) is over, and the townspeople brought out all their shiny and glowing things to decorate windows and offices, and the Advent markets are open now. In the dark and cold months of the year, people try to find warmth and comfort in the artificial light. Have to find& install my star for the window near the computer

Three night shifts prior and two long shifts this week and weekend classes.... o.o Wow. Your schedule amazes me. Please don't let it wear you down too much!
I hope all of your Christmas preparations are going well!
Did you finish Sanzo's gift to your Mum? I have to admit, I'm curious about what it is. :)

As for the mad gift: Mum loves sheep, and Sanzo wanted to give her one. Well, we have enough plushies to insulate the roof with them, and I don't think mum dreams of electric sheep. So I suggested to "rent" a real one- paying the food etc. for one sheep in a herd for one year and mum can visit and cuddle the animal regularly. Our local sheperds are sociopathic, so I couldn't ask them. And at the zoo, we had to buy tickets as well. Fortunately, I remembered my "apprenticeship" at the environmental issues center, where I learned spinning wool 15 years ago. They still have sheep and were nuts enough to follow my idea. Now I have to visit them, pay the money and take some photos we can give mum as a symbol for the gift. Weird enough?
Still lots of things to do, resp. to buy, I don't have enough time to make presents this year.
