DId you know the sheep are REAL at the Rockettes?!

They are. As are the camels and a mule. Crazytown. (Went to the Rockettes on Christmas Eve) :)

Went to Brooke and Paul's per usual (when they're here!) on Christmas Eve, followed by church with my mom. Good times, despite a growing sore throat. By the time church started, I was pretty sure I had tonsilitis. (I did.). Hey, whatever, it got me out of singing the songs my little voice wasn't made for. haha! (Got meds. I'm better.)

Mom and I had a great Christmas. We played with the camera timer and ended up with some interesting shots. I'll post one next time I remember. They're hilarious. Mom, me, both dogs...and a camera timer. hahahaha... Anyway, we had a great time...cooked, chatted, opened gifts. :) Very thankful to have her. :)

Gracie is one weird little beast. Please see her with her Christmas bone...which she wouldnt put down. EVER. (She also got toys and other treats, but only liked the bone). She carries it down to potty, goes to the bathroom with it in her mouth then wants to go back upstairs. She sometimes will drop it at the door..just waiting to take it downstairs again. Very odd. LOL! I love my little dog. 


I went car shopping Friday. That was kinda a disaster. Kinda. I think I like the Nissan Rogues. I think. Jeez. I'm mainly just really disappointed that I'm not getting one by year end... unless I find what I want soon. :( I dont like not hitting goals...and I've been thinking I'd have one by 09 for MONTHS now...I need to lighten up, I think...

Anyway, I found a cutetastic dress for New Years! It's hot pink! I always go with black, so why not change things up to ring in 09, right?! Im really excited for new years this year! I'm not stressed, I'm in a great place, and I feel like only positive things are to come. Resolutions coming soon...I really wanna focus on development this year...I'll explain in my resolution post!! 

My dvr-ed show just ended and it flipped to "a double shot at love" on mtv.. um.. SICK. SICK. SICK. I should so have my own show if this trash gets ratings. Then again, I'm not trash...so I guess I wouldnt get ratings. *sigh* 

I'm DYING to home improve btw... I want to paint my bathroom and re-do it. I want to get a new bed and dresser. I think I see a trip to ikea in my future. I want my bedroom to be my favorite room in the house...not just the room where I sleep, ya know... (I see another resolution coming on). ;)

Hope you had a great Holiday!

i'm glad you had a good christmas with your sweet mommy.

a car purchase is so stressful. i am glad that matt new what he wanted with the jetta and i did not have to put much into it.

OMG i am in the same place with my bedroom. i have worked on my entire house, but not my bedroom. i think it should be a nice place...not just where you sleep or a clothing dumping ground! urg. i need new curtains and a paint job...that would be a start. oh and my ceiling fan is ugly. i better do these things before lucia comes because it will fall way down on the priority list soon.

where are you going for new year's eve? we might go eat somewhere nice, but it is hard for me to want to go out...i'm sure you can see why :)

my cat gobi used to do the same kind of thing, only it was with kleenex packages he'd steal from my purse. oh and if I'd try to take it away he'd growl!!

I feel for you and your car woes. If you need an air pollution engineer's perspective let me know. :)
