Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck with all of that, Sara! My cousin's oldest is 15 today! Holy crap.

I am READY. I just need to shower, but really I think that's it.

Damn, Brenda. That's up late! I feel like I haven't slept in because of the dang time change--I've been sleeping until 10 every morning, but still manage to feel like I'm waking up hella early. Oh well--that'll make me feel super wakey when I get home to the west coast, right?

Yay new car for Christmas, Sox? Um, even if unplanned.

Sister and I have to figure out what we are doing for dinner. Family doesn't really have many (any?) Christmas traditions, and mom recently went vegetarian/low-fat after a heart procedure, Dad and BIL are diabetic, and all of us are fat kids who want cookies. What to eat for dinner? Current plans are "quinoa salad with beans/avocado/peppers/feta" for mom and "salad of some kind?" Dad asked for filet mignon last night, when I asked him. Um. Sister wants to make mashed potatoes. I'm not sure how these things will go together.

Honestly, steak, mashed potatoes, and a salad sounds like a classic meal. Add the quinoa, and it's modern!

I need to shower, get to grocery store and pick up the pictures I had printed last night. Then I might actually cook and bake.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

We have a nine pound ham if anyone wants to come over.

There's a place in my hood that's been there since the 40s that sells hams, mustard, and recently smoked turkeys. And when you only plan a few days ahead nine lbs is the smallest you can get. But it's so delicious!

There will be three of us for dinner. I told them to stock up on Tupperware.

I would like some ham! We're having boeuf bourgignon tonight and turkey tomorrow.

That's a lot of ham! Yum.

Lost LDB at the grocery store. I almost didn't notice, but I was singing along and the lyrics eventually registered.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

We're about to get on the road. What am I forgetting?
