Happy Birthday Susan !
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Happy New Year, Buffistas!
Conversation with Matilda this morning as we snuggled in bed:
Matilda:
[whilst climbing on my head]
I love you, Daddy.
Me: Awww. I love you too. Happy New Year!
Matilda: Happy Yarn!
She and Emmett are cuddled on the couch watching Kiki. I'm about to make waffles. JZ is in a flurry of New Year cleaning.

Happy birthday, Susan!

Just to update you that I'm back at my parents' after my mom's uncle funeral, and safe.
Sirens caught us in Be'er Sheva. Those were few very scary minutes. I'll probably try to travel less to my parents after this experience. The city itself was very empty.
(I saw Jessica's post in Beep Me, and couldn't help but think "umm, I didn't search for 2009 in the skies when the sirens went on... dammit. Maybe I would have seen it coming!")
And Happy-New-Year, those who celebrate it.

Happy New Year everyone! I ended up asleep by 8:30, so no champagne and very little Thin Man for me. Perhaps we'll try again tonight. I did get a beautiful 13 hours of sleep, which I desperately needed. Now I am nicely Vicodined and about to attempt my first shower since Monday. It's the little things...

Aw guys, talk about starting the new year off on a lovely note. Abby just cooked her first real food item with minimal help from me. She got a cookbook for Christmas and decided that she wanted to make her daddy the "Rocky Top Brownies." It's essentially a boxed brownie mix topped with chopped Reese's peanut butter cups, but she measured and mixed all the ingredients herself and chopped the peanut butter cups and prepped the pan and set the oven and basically everything.
And they were om nom nom nom. Hee! (Best part too, Nate's very interested and wants to be involved as well.)

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Sumi, I've been having discoveries of things that Netflix has on Watch Now (I'm almost done with the UK Office, so I will soon be able to watch the US). I ::heart:: technology.
Hooray for cooking success!

When I was Abby's age, I loved to bake. Hell, I still love to bake.
My mom and I watched Wall-E while I took down the xmas tree (did the luminarias yesterday). I moved the shoe racks and have reclaimed the closets.
I also found a box for my brother's gift, which means WOO POST OFFICE tomorrow.
Washed clothes, folded em too. I should have taken a nap since K took N to watch the outdoor hockey game elsewhere.

Oh wait. I just got sucked into the Winter Classic. It's so random.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Me, too, Kat!
I'm trying to find a focus for this column.
