The ski trip is about to commence.
Stress is high.

Appointment tonight.
I will somehow manage to find time to shower, pack, and clean before I leave for the airport.
I'll pick up Kevin.
Tomorrow, we will pile into the car and drive up.
Snowboard. Hot tub. Sleep. Repeat. x 5.
See you Tuesday!
Also, Happy Birthday Mom! I love you. I can't believe you're turning [ ] this year!!

On Accomplishments, Mostly
It's the 149th post for the year!
Why does that matter?
That means that 2011 was officially the most-blogged about year.
This post beats the previous record of 148. Take that, 2010!
Thank for for reading!
(Arguably this post does not actually have any valuable content and therefore, doesn't really count. But whatever. I do what I want.)
I'd also like to remind that you if you have Death Pool 2012 submissions, please send them to me before the end of the year!
Remember, you only get 10 - they have to be notable people, but can be sports players, politicians, celebrities, etc.
Aunt Jan, I'm looking forward to your submissions!

On Christmas Pictures
I have always loved this chandelier.
Maddie made me a romance novel Christmas ornament. I love it! One of the best gifts I've ever received.
My favorite wrapping paper.
View from my snow-covered street.
Cate loved playing with Mike.
Mike and Jan - that's teamwork!
On Christmas
This Christmas business is quite hectic.
All of this running around leaves little room for blogging.
The holiday itself is such a horrid excuse for a day of celebration that I rarely have high hopes for it. However, it passed with great incident - one meltdown on my part that Grandma Mary managed to contain by giving me a prolonged hug.
Alas, Christmas Eve was wonderful. We lingered at the dinner table and listened to stories about the past and the people who inhabit those memories. It was lovely to listen to stories of love and war, loss and hardship, magic and romance. I am reminded, again, how truly lucky I am to be a part of such a wonderful family.
Christmas Day was.
I got to see all of the cousins, which was so wonderful. They wrapped us up in hugs. Two cousins near our ages are in from California, and it was so nice to sit and talk and catch up with them.
Hectic day.
I was glad to get home and find the cat and fall asleep.
