M.I.A.

We don't have internet at home right now. It is a pain in the you-know-what. Yesterday Joe set us up with dial up until we can get the problem fixed.

I am nowhere near patient enough for dial up. I would rather just go without until we can get our wireless hooked up again. So I will probably continue to be M.I.A.

I have been feeling down. Things are still really hard. I'm starting to wonder if they will ever get better. We are contemplating some major life changes and I am scared and anxious. I don't like change. Actually I despise it.

But what we're doing right now isn't working and without some major change I don't know how much longer we can go on.

All of it makes me so very tired.



Thus ends the downer portion of this post.


It's not all bad. We had a lovely Thanksgiving up in S.F. with my sister and family.

We went to see "Wicked". I loved it. I love me a musical(sorry M3! ;). I've been blaring the songs in the car ever since.

We also went ice skating. And not only did I not kill myself, I didn't fall down even once. That had to be some kind of Thanksgiving miracle. Although the weekend wasn't completely injury free. I did fall down my sister's steep and narrow basement stairs while playing hide-and-seek with the kids. My back is still sore from that one.

Last night we went to a friend's birthday party and got to catch up with a lot of people I haven't seen in long time. It was fun. We need to get out more.

I can't believe it's Christmas. I know, I say that every year but this year it just snuck up on me. We aren't doing presents this year and I'm not even sure I will put up our tree. I did put up a few lights on our porch. I think that will be as much Christmas spirit as I can muster this year.

Lastly, my friend Kayce got her referral for a beautiful baby girl. I haven't been so excited over a referral since my niece's! She is precious. Congrats Kayce! We are so very happy for you all!!
