Slacker

I didn't realize just how long it has been since my last post. It isn't that we haven't done anything- in fact I would say that it is just the opposite. With the crazy Holidays and all the fun and excitement that comes with it we were quite busy. Unfortunately I still haven't downloaded the pictures yet to post about them. "Why not download them now?" you ask. Well, I am quite comfy sitting in the recliner and the camera is downstairs- slacker I know. Jeff is at the Jazz game tonight, so I can't even get him to get it. And all the kids are in bed, lucky me. I will say this... Christmas was wonderful. We decided that this year we were going to do a smaller Christmas- this was all decided before the whole economy thing. And it was the best Christmas ever. It wasn't a crazy day with so many gifts that the kids don't care about them. We were able to focus more on giving to those less fortunate and on the true meaning of Christmas. The kids were able to ask Santa for 3 things (with little parental prodding) and Mom and Dad for 2 things. They got everything they asked for and a few extra things as well. It was wonderful. The parties were all a success and I am very glad that it is all over and the kids are back in school. Now I get to look forward to all the fun, sad, scary, happy, and everything else that will happen in 2009.

Wow! I just reread the post- it really doesn't make much sense, but I will blame that on the time of night.
