CHRISTMAS 2006

...There's a bit of a romantic adventure coming my way for Christmas. I will not be blogging about it, but it is really making me look forward to the day --- which is really quite nice. There have also a major challenge headed my way as I will be unemployed again as of January 13th. But, it's OK. I am not worried. I've got a good feeling about it. Things happen for a reason and all will be falling into place.

Anyway, I had a nice evening hanging out with my pal, Milford. We went high end and shopped at Target in San Bruno. I picked up the new Mary J. Blige CD for $9! ...and a bottle of Diet Coke, a can of soup and some socks. Milford bought a lot! Then we had our almost ritual weekly dinner at Red Robyns where I ate waaaaaaay too much and still feel kind of ill. But, it was fun!

So, here this is the time of year where my mind always turns to my Grandmother. I miss her. I always wonder what she would think of me and where I am at now almost 10 years since she passed on. I often miss her advice, her sense of humor and her odd comments.

This is also that time of the year when we all send holiday cards to each other. I didn't receive as many as usual, but I have found 21 in my mail box thus far and that has filled up my shelves. I love all of the cards which were sent to me, but these two really got me -- made me homesick for Boston... I'm going to blink and these beautiful kids are going to be in college!


Have ya ever seen sweeter kids?!?!?

Same for this little one --- and doesn't his mom give great xmas card!?!?!
