Hi again world

Geez, it's been almost two weeks since I've last blogged. I have been busy though. I had a nice Thanksgiving over at my sister's house. I don't get to see them enough, but they rarely make the trip to come see me and I'm always the one to drive into their town. It doesn't really matter in the larger scheme of things, the point is to be together :).

So now it's all about Christmas, and we're making our lists of what and for whom. I'm happy to see the decorations go up all around, and people a little more sentimental. This time of year is hard to beat. I have the urge to get up into the snow and see some sparkling white peaks against a crystal clear blue sky, not to mention the refreshing cold clean air. I don't know if we'll be splurging on a overnight trip to Tahoe though this year, as we've got major expenses coming up. I'm surprised I'm even doing Christmas, but I can't seriously think of not doing Christmas!

We go to get pictures taken on this Saturday by one of our friends who does photography on the side. It should be fun, but gosh, I just don't have much to wear since most of my wardrobe is jeans and t-shirts with a few sweaters thrown in. I don't have money to spend on something that will only be useful for taking pictures in right now. And it's not like this is the only chance we have to get our pictures taken, so it will probably be a short and sweet session.

Gotta get ready for work now...
