Christmas in Pictures

Well. Here I am on the last day of my Christmas vacation trying to complete all the "stuff" I was going to do before now. Oops - again. It always seems to happen that way, doesn't it? Ah well. The last couple of weeks have been insanely busy, with being home for the first week or more and then back here to guests and a New Year's party to prepare. Fun, as always, but I am never quite ready to go back. I really enjoy visiting with people over the holidays, and having more than a day or two to do it. Even though I still don't get to see everyone I want to. Alan took a while to re-adjust to being home, but he is slowly settiling into being my nice, polite, happy boy again, instead of the little hitting devil-child he was for a couple of days. Although, as I'm sure Tina can sympathize with, he has now discovered the Cars movie and wants to watch it 18 times a day. I borrowed Julie and Tim's copy and now I'm going to buy one so he doesn't wear it out. Ah well...it's a break from Diego and Pablo at any rate. Apart from that, my newest obesession is the Twilight series of books that my mom bought for me. I got all four for Christmas and had them read in three days. I'm now reading them for the second time ( and almost done the third one...eesh) and watched the movie a couple times as well!

I haven't made any specific New Year's resolutions, unless it's to try posting a bit more and eating a bit less. But as I said, nothing rock hard. More or less, I just want to try a little harder to do those things I know I should do, and don't quite manage all the time. Well, it's time to make supper. I'll do my best to keep it current. Happy 2009!!!!!
