If I haven't been around as much as I promised, it's for a good reason, I promise! I had great plans for my time off. To-do lists. Art journaling. Maybe even some ... gasp! ... scrapbooking. But really, my life has been taken over.
We did it. We took the plunge. Kevin and I bought ourselves a Wii for Christmas. Neither of us could really think of anything we needed from the other, and since we're getting old and all, we are spending more and more time at home. Usually we can't come up with anything to do at night on the weekends other than eat out, and I can't afford to buy all new bigger clothes, so this is good. Though, I didn't take into account the amount of various microbrews will be consumed while playing. If you're standing when you're drinking it, it doesn't have calories, right? That's what I thought!
Speaking of drinking, we decided to have a small (I think) shindig at our apartment for New Years. What tends to happen when we go places for parties is that one of us gets to drink while the other gets to drive. It usually makes for a long and dull night for the lucky driver! Plus, New Years is so scary on the road even if you are stone-cold sober, with all the crazies out. So I prefer our solution. Now if only I could find the perfect party dress. Apparently cute little dresses are only designed for tiny little ladies or bigger ladies with no shame, of which I am NEITHER! I had the perfect outfit in mind, and it was cute, but I can't find anything to make this outfit take shape! Grrr!
Anyways. Christmas. Christmas was great! It surprises me what presents are the most exciting to me now that I have my own place and am in a very healthy, stable relationship. Take, for example ...
This a wonderful book! I finally bought it from Amazon and looking forward to getting it! I find myself reading it once a year and doing something new - like dreaming!
