Susannah is spending the night at my sisters and Dh is working late... I am all alone in my house for the first time in what seems like months!

We are pretty much ready for Christmas. I still need to go out for two gifts, for Dh and my mom, and should be doing that tonight, but I just don't want to My plan is more along the lines of a hot, uninterrupted bath and curling up on the couch with my book! Tomorrow night will be last minute shopping night.

Susannah made a nice long wish list, which included an iPhone (or any touch screen phone) and a swimming pool with a diving board. Neither of those items will be under her tree, but I think she'll be happy with her Christmas. I only asked for one thing... LOLOL... this really cool pink Beach Cruiser with a pink and white seat DH and Susannah went shopping today, and it is taking all my restraint not to go snooping in the garage. There is something else wrapped up under the tree, which is OBVIOUSLY not my bicycle, but from the charge on the bank account, I know DH quite possibly could have bought it.

Sannah is in begging mode... PLEASE just ONE present early! Haha... NOT! She's trying her hardest... asked me today where my Holiday Spirit is. I was like what are you talking about? She said "this is the season of GIVING, not keeping away!" Nice try!

Work is good, busy, and I still love my job, love the people I work with, love that it's so flexible and convenient. Love that my company just got taken over by another company and that the new benefit package is far beyond what I hired into, but the job will remain the same. Part of the deal was that our docs still control the everyday running of the office, nothing in the practice will change for a minimum of five years. Love that the health insurance (which was lacking under the old plan) is likely going allow me a last ditch effort should I choose to go for broke at the ripe old age of 42 (soon to be 43.) I have some considering to do. I don't feel that old, but there are some possibilities we need to give serious thought to. So that's all on the downlow

Hmmm... yeah, that about sums it up. Hope everyone has a GREAT holiday!
