Happy New Year

Our holidays are coming to an end and 2008 is just days away!
I hope you all had a great Christmas. We did! The best part was both my kids were home along with the boyfriend and friends.
Oh, I can now refer to my daughter's boyfriend as my future son-in-law because on Christmas Eve he gave her a beautiful engagement ring.
We spent most the day playing games together and having some fun family time. The day after Christmas we headed off to Texas to visit David's family in Tyler, TX and Houston, TX. It was a quick trip but we enjoyed getting to see them again. It is a long drive and we hadn't done it for 3 years so decided it was time again.
Hope you all are planning a great 2008. I am!

Another Birthday

Another one has come and gone. Do I feel 47? Somedays yes and somedays no. I am not one of those afraid to tell me age. To me it's just a number and has nothing to do with who you are. I do enjoy that most my friends tell me I am still a kid though.
This year I took advanatage of "My Day". I got David to do some honeydos for me. He even took a half day off from work and came home, installed a new kitchen faucet and filter for me and then took me to lunch. Got to have me favorite - Moo Sho Pork. After putting up lights and fixing the drier vent I let him off for the day. 9 of us went to Stillwater for dinner at Kyotos and Braums for dessert. I sure ate on my birthday!
Now it is time to get to work loosing all the weight I have put back on. My goal is to loose 20 pounds. It may take me a while but I will. Guess I better get on the tread mill after lunch today!
