I did a whole bunch of laundry this weekend and now it is all sitting in the hallway by the washer. We have clean clothes and the ...desire?... to fold them has disappeared. They're much more fun as an obstacle course.

Monday: first day back
Work was fine. Nothing really exciting happened, but nothing really bad happened either. It is a bit depressing to think about how long it will be before we get more vacation.

Sunday
Oh, I have to go back to work tomorrow. I've enjoyed the long vacation. Today was again quite frigid, but we had to go out. We did some errands (I got new quilting supplies and a frame for one of our prints) and went to church. After church we went to Ruby Tuesdays with some friends...they have a cool brunch special: biscuits, parafiet, small entrée, and cookies. I got an omelet and wasn't very impressed, but the rest of the food was really good. We briefly stopped at the drum store and I started not feeling great. However, since there was pretty much no food in the house we still stopped at the grocery store. Our cart was barely full and yet we still managed to spend $70. I just don't understand how that works sometimes. Ben put the groceries away while I took a nap and recovered.
I know, wasn't that exciting! I'm sure you really wanted to know all those details. Well, have a good night.

Saturday: brrr
Ben and I went out to shovel the driveway and realized why the furnace had been on so much today...it was frigid! It luckily didn't take us very long to shovel, but we were cold by the end. We also took down all the Christmas decorations. I miss the lights. I think that is my favorite part of Christmas decor.
It was still a very nice day though...we played some WoW, I took a nap, and just hung out.
We were are on a cool day in Florida.

Friday: 2010
What a wonderful way to start the new year...we went to a Rockband Party last night and then stayed home all day. Flurry was still nice and cuddly so we spent a lot of time reading by here. We finished unpacking and played with our Christmas presents.

Thursday: the year in review
So I was thinking about 2009 and decided it wasn't one of my favorite years. Now, there were lots of good times, no doubt. But there were a few things that overshadowed most of the year that also made it not my favorite. So, instead of talking more about that I decided to take one random picture from each month...and I was reminded how blessed I really am.
January: Betsie left. :( Here are people from our Bible Study at the good bye bowling.
February: I made a tablecloth.
March: Bible study potluck at our house. We had lots of potlucks this year!
May: Dad and Pat came over and we went to Watkin's Glen.
June: Girl's night! We put parafin on our hands and feet.
July: Ben got me a get-well kit.
August: we went to Niagra with some friends.
September: I went to a woman's retreat with my church. It was rather cold.
October: still quilting away.
November: we put the Christmas tree up
December: I took a picture of driftwood on a beach in Florida.
Wednesday: from Sun to Flurries
The day started out beautiful.
Then we had to leave. However, the kids didn't throw up in the airplane, our car didn't break down on the way home, the house didn't burn down while we were gone, and Flurry was still alive...so it was a successful trip home.
Here's Flurry with the helicopter. She would get closer to it than the vaccuum, but tried to never let it out of her sight.
This morning we also awoke to snow! It was nice that it held off until we were home.
