Normally I am just sitting down to the poker table, however the hosts kids are sick. Cicely is at her mom and dad's house doing something Christmasy. Fire is burning, Christmas tree is lit. Pink Floyd, Meddle is playing, and I am blogging. For the two of you that read this, sorry to disappoint last time. All is relatively good.
I need a new book to read.
I just finished East of Eden. It is a great book. I suggest that you read it, and think about it. It is an Adam and Eve, Cain and Able story. Check it out.
We are doing something new for Christmas this year. We are going to not spend a bunch of money this year to let everyone know that we love them. We are going to take a weekend this spring and all go to a place on the beach. I don't know that there is anything else that could be better. I think that when it is all said and done, time together is the best way to let people know how important they are to you. We are all going to take time out of our "busy" schedules and just be together. That to me is as good as it gets. I can't wait. We are going to buy stuff for the kids, because it is them that should get to enjoy that the most, and we all drew a name and get to buy something for one person. This should be a really good time.
I don't know what else to say now, so this is me signing off.

"Thousand Splendid Suns"...I tell you, you will enjoy it. Another good one is "I am Proud of You" (story of a journalist and his relationship with Fred Rogers "Mister Rogers" - he was an amazing and inspiring human being! wasn't sure if I told you about that one)
Kinda nice to focus on the kiddos for Christmas...we are doing that again this year. Gives the adults a renewed sense of excitement and appreciation for the fun of the season and let's us re-focus on the reason for Christmas...
I will read East of Eden soon...

East of Eden. Ok. Put that on my list too.
Fake tree all the way for us Gibeau's - we love it and didn't get the pre lit tree for that exact reason...it is like a VCR and DVD or fax and printer combo - ones goes and the whole thing is a loss...Court puts ours up every year faster and faster - no complaints and it takes 5 minutes - LOVE IT!!! Did I mention we LOVE IT!!! Already been to the dark side - not coming back :)
