New Years Eve

I am having the hardest time believing that 2006 is over.  What a year, it has flown by.  It’s been a good year.  I am not a resolution maker but I am determined to walk my girly dog every day, we both need it and actually like hitting the trail. We spent last night at...

Holiday Spirit

I am lacking it right about now. Usually I am all over Christmas, the tree, the lights, the festivities.  But this year we will be lucky to get our tree up by the 25th and my enthusiasm just isn’t there.  Could be that I have had tooth pain for the last four weeks with my...

Online Shopping

Still trying to do most of my shopping online and of course finding more stuff that I myself want than for other people! For example, how cool is this stuff? See that little cup with what looks like whipped cream on the top?  It’s a pin cushion.  I so need one of those.  Unfortunately she...
