Happy New Year to all...

Hard to believe another year has come and gone. I hope all who read this, had a wonderful Christmas. I hope that you all are as truly blessed as I am, and got to enjoy the company of family and friends.

We had a very quiet Christmas season this year. By choice and I highly recommend it. We are usually so busy, that we don't get to kick back and enjoy the kids as much as we like. Not this year, we kicked back, had activities with the kids and just thouroughly enjoyed our family. S's dad came over from the mainland, and we saw my brother and his fiance. We visited with friends and ate way, way, way to much. I need another 10 pound yard work out again.

We totally took the month of December off, from yard work and any other grand ideas we had. Did you know, that idle hands makes your mind go into overdrive on the ideas end. We almost made the whole month off, but on Dec. 30th, a tree came down on the back property and just, by a few feet, missed the rental trailer back there. So on with the work clothes and more wood to move. Worked off a little of the shortbread.

Had a wonderful time with the boys this Xmas, and they got spoiled again. Boy it is easy to do, when they are good kids (mostly), I must be in a generous mood. I got to spend time with my lovely husband and got to hang out with my father-in-law. Actually, just rang up daughter in law bonus points with the home cooking and baking. I even took a giant leap, and read a book over the holidays. Bad idea, because at time's I get lost. I read Wilbur Smith, a South African writer. As it was poetically put to me over the holidays, "he paints pictures with his words". I read Blue Horizon. I however, finished to the last 2 pages, and then I am hanging, because, I believe little Miss Biscuit thought I was engaged to much for her liking, and chewed the last 2 pages of the book off and shredded it. Good thing they only set up the next book. I'm sure it will be another 2 years until I dare pick up another of his books. Maybe if I get them on tape, I can listen on my way to work.

Now I must go and off to bed, too many late nights and it is caught up with me. Enjoy the new year and all it has to offer.

God Bless.
