End of 2008

The year is coming to and end and I for one am grateful that it is. This year hasn’t been horrible, so I can’t really complain a whole lot about it. I thought about doing a year in review, but I’m not sure I want to. Maybe a few bullet points of certain things.Good Things [...]

Post Holiday Update

So, there’s a lot to say, but I’m not sure how much I want to say. I feel incredibly blessed to have so many amazing friends. I want to thank everyone for the lovely cards. I didn’t send out cards again this year. Time just got away with me, as did the blahs. Every year [...]

Christmas Cooking

Okay, so I have made 10 dozen truffles. 4 dozen chocolate oreo truffles, 6 dozen golden oreo truffles. They’re so damn good it’s not even funny.

Snow..

We got our first real snow of the year. It was ice underneath, too. Meh. I’m not really all that happy about it, but it wasn’t so bad that we didn’t get out of the house today. I managed to procure a gift for the 8yr old child. I still need to get a gift [...]

Winter.. Ugh

So, it’s Winter, my least favorite season of the year for oh so many reasons. The only good part of it being December is that I can use it as an excuse not to go out of the house. However, I’ve noticed that when I do get out of the house, I’m much happier than [...]
