Here we are: Linda, Ron, Ted, Gail and little no neck.

Supposed to be Writing

I am currently writing my thesis. Chapter 1. That is as far as I've gotten. Joel says he knows when I have a project due because the house is suddenly clean, I'm doing laundry, and all sorts of other things that I never get done start getting done. I'm thinking I should walk the dog, but it is raining. I haven't blogged in a while...


It may be a little late to be sharing the event, but we had a fabulous Christmas! Thank you to all of our holiday hosts, but we owe an especially big thank you to Phil and Martha who provided us with a beautiful, comfortable suite of rooms complete with delicious meals and incredible company. Good thing they shopped at Costco. Following are some photos from the visit.

Ice skating was fun for Lydia and stressful for Ryan.

I think there is something in the coffee.

Beautiful Mary.

I got food poisoning before I got on the plane and was very disappointed that Delta stopped putting the vomit bags in the seat pockets. Bad move. The airports also don't have enough bathrooms, I might add. Joel dragged me along, much to the dismay of other passengers and any pride I might have had. Thank goodness we made it, though, and have wonderful memories of Christmas 2008.
