Now that the big day is here, I'm rather tired. My kids got me up early, actually since 5am...I told them to go back to bed...then at 6am....nope, not getting up yet....then at 7am....finally I caved, since my hubby was up, I crawled out of bed. They plugged the tree in, which is what we normally do on the morning of Christmas and it stays plugged in the entire day! *************************************** Feed the fishes, since they're right there, the tank next to the tree, and the...
Happy Birthday Daddy It's been a while since I greeted you dad, it's been a while since I've dreamt you. I've been thinking about this day all week, while I've been going back and forth with your grand children. It's your favorite time of the year again - Christmas! I smile when I remember the special time you and mom made it for us kids. This is the time you would be off for two months too! I loved having you around for that long without work hanging around. I watched the So...
Remembering the true reason why we do celebrate..... the birth of Baby Jesus . I love listening to and retelling the story. I love singing the songs..... Christmas carols ...yeah, some of us hate them, but, it isn't Chritmas without them... A Christmas tree ....fake or real.... Decorations ....how can it be without these?! Some people go all out, some do it on the down low...however you do it...have fun and enjoy every moment! Santa Claus .....the big...
Poor Santa Claus, the guy just can't get a break. Like Christmas, most people's (and I say that quite loosely because these days I have no clue as to who but a handful of people, including me, that still loves and celebrates this holiday anymore), getting on the bandwagon of attacking, blaming, maiming, or just plumb ready to cut what most people have treasured for so many years from our history. The guy just can't get a break! In a recent blog filed under Humor by KFC Link , he's eve...
Have you ever wondered if our society will ever be paperless? After all, we are so much more advanced technologically, why can’t this happen, or why shouldn’t it? Did you know that there was a “ 1998 Government Paper Elimination Act ”? [1] I didn’t! But yes there was such an act. Federal agencies were required by law to stop using paper when creating new or storing current documents. And they had to make sure that all of their forms and other pertinent documents were available on l...
Whoo hoo! My 17 year old called me at work this evening all excited because a UPS delivery was just dropped off! It was addressed to me and can she open it? I'm like, no, it's my package and I don't want you guys raiding it! But please she begs because by the time I get home she will be at her part time job and won't be here to see me open it. Of course I caved! The three of them were there and I could hear the cheering in the background! Kids!LOL! Any chance they get to open a gif...
I really admire people who can get all their stuff together, presents - under the tree, gifts - wrapped, how about all gift shopping - done? In the mail? Good on you! Me, not done yet. My tree is up, yep, did that more than a week ago. Bought stuff for our office holiday get together, even the surprised gift and I'm cooking my famous curried chicken and even a baked chicken dish! But under our tree is so empty right now. My kids are looking at me with doeful eyes! I tell the...
ROLL CALL!!! Goodness, I'm exhausted being on the computer for a couple of hours! I just completed reading my blog list, man you guys write a lot! I enjoyed it though. I hope I didn't miss anyone! I kind of cleaned up my list recently too to make it easier for myself. It is for me you know, and of course anyone else who wants to log into their favs from my list as well! I do that all the time. Sometimes I'm reading say Mark's blog I'd log into Joe's and then I'd go back an...
Whining blog so if you don't like those sort of things, don't read this. And dont' tell me not to whine - I'm in a whining mood! I'm feeling totally meloncholy today, deeply so. My son's been ill since Friday. I had to pick him up early from school last week. He caught a cold which brought on his asthma and that's all it takes for him to have an episode. {and all because we had a badass cold front last week} I'm drained and I'm tired. Between coaxing him to 'feed his cold...
The Port of Seattle has removed all of it's Christmas trees from all of it's port because of a Jewish Leader's protest that they are offensive. I don't get it. I'm sure the kids don't understand why either, but it's a darn shame for them to let the few spoil it for the other thousands who do enjoy Christmas trees! The Port's authorities have had the trees up and decorated for more than 25 years, now the trees are a big problem. Tsk, tsk. They should have at least waited til t...
I had a big smile on my face when I saw this ABC News Good Morning America video report! The foundation of Christopher Reeve and his wife Dana, are making great progress in helping people with spinal chord injury walk again. This video showed the story of a little boy, Chase and also a lady (I forgot her name), who are both walking because of the help they have received from the Reeves foundation. They both didn't live long enough to see this, but I'm sure they would be absolutely ha...

I'm not sure how to put this into words or what to even write about. I know it's been on my mind a lot lately and I have to write to think it out. Recently my daughter said she has agreed to go steady with a boy, she's 17, he's 19. My hubby met him, I haven't formally met him. My hubby met him because he used to work where my daughter works. He's doing nothing right now. NOt going to school, no job, nothing. Although he's supposed to start school in January, college that is. ...
