. . . back in the saddle . . .

. . . hello? . . . 

. . . {crickets chirping} . . .

. . . it feels like i fell off 

the face of the blogging earth . . . 

. . . however, if you have to choose a time 

for your hard drive to fail 

{and then as soon as you pick up your newly repaired computer, 

you get to wait until after the weekend 

for the cox cable guy to come to your home 

and fix the internet, 

blah, blah, blah} . . . 

. . . december would be a "good" time . . . 

. . . because i've certainly been able 

to keep myself busy with

this, this and this . . . 

. . . pretty much the same as 2007 . . . 

. . . although, we're so lucky . . .

. . . we get to add 

TWO new stockings this year 

{in the form of cute grandsons} . . . 

. . . and it's official . . . 

. . . there can be 

no more grandbabies 

or a wife for drew 

until we remodel . . . 

. . . we're simply out of room . . . 

{extra credit if you can pick out the two new stockings}
