Still no luck on the website front. We have tracked the problem to AT&T – no big surprise there but the light at the end of the tunnel is looking dimmer and dimmer. Sigh.

This weekend when by far too quickly. My hours were whittled away circling parking lots and standing in cash register lines. The good news is, my gifts are 90% purchased. I may even be able to kick back and enjoy the holiday soon! Our lights are up but we are saving decorating the tree and house until next weekend when Kev’s mom comes down to visit.

Last year was our first Christmas in our little house and our first Christmas with Artie. We found the perfect tree, brought it home, and watched in horror as Artie pee’d on it. I’m hoping this isn’t his version of a Christmas tradition. Stupid dog. Good thing he’s so cute….
