Christmas in Connecticut
9 days til Christmas, 7 til holiday vacation – life is good.
It’s also busy. But that’s life for ya.
Just about done with shopping (thank God). A few stragglers here and there. D and I hit the stores hard yesterday after I got home from work. We shopped at 8 stores in 2 and a half hours; we did pretty good. Now I face the monumental task of wrapping gifts. Yay.
Friday the 23rd, CL, D, and I fly to New England to visit my folks. It will be our first family Christmas in Connecticut. D has never had a Christmas without CL’s parents, so this will be a shock to the system. But he’s 13 now, and he should be fine. It’ll just be a different experience.
I’m hoping for snow when we’re in Connecticut. Lots of it. An extended vacation would be nice. I could take the family on a ski trip. Of course, it can’t snow until after we land and we’re safe at home.

22 days til Christmas, 20 til holiday vacation, never enough time …
Went Christmas shopping last night with CL.
Good news – got a lot of gifts. Bad news – spent too much.
Work is better. Well, not really. It’s still tense and full of conflict. I guess I’m just used to it now.
Hamazahn.com – My cousin’s son Hamilton has his own site! I’m amazed what this kid can do!
It’s cold here.
Mmmm … I smell bacon. Catch ya later …
busy weekend
Been busy this weekend. Friday we saw Harry Potter at the Lincoln. Sold out show; people cheering at every opportunity. Honestly, I hadn’t experienced that in a theater since the original Star Wars trilogy. The movie was great, but the book is so much better.
Saturday we did a little Christmas shopping. In fact, we went back out at 9 PM last night to buy some gifts (late sale). Today, I spent a good 3 hours picking up leaves in the front yard. My back and legs hurt, but I’m happy that I got it done.
Thanksgiving is this week, and it’s only a 3 day work week for me. I was hoping to go Christmas shopping during the 4 day weekend, but the wallet is a little thin right now. I’d really like to spend a little more time on the PC next weekend to backup data and work on my sites.
