Almost Christmas!!

Hey all,

Well, we are just all doing fine here in NM. Got to see Tyler last weekend for Kalyn's birthday, so that was nice. We had a great time in ABQ. Went to a couple of different malls and had dinner at El Patio and then spent the night at a cheapee hotel. I got a discount because of where I work so it was $40 for the night. Kinda nice eh?? Kalyn had a nice birthday and got mostly money which is what she wanted. She's doing really well saving her money and also in school. She leaves Thursday to go spend the rest of her Christmas vacation with her Dad. Shane and Steph are driving here from Kansas. They will stop on Wed and see Tyler for the night in SF and then come get Kalyn on Thursday morning and then head to Utah/Colorado for Christmas. I think I have to get her in Durango the weekend of the 1st, but haven't found out that part yet. Will keep you posted. That's really all I've got right now. We've been going to parties, parties, parties, which is really fun!!! lol Hard to believe 2011 is right around the corner. Can't wait to see what the next year will hold!! Until next time...

Christmas time!!

Hey all,

Not toooo much to report....kinda bored these days with cleaning less and got all my Christmas cards done and mailed out!! I do need to bake still and I plan to make all the dough tomorrow and then slowly get them made this week. You see, we are going to Albuquerque next weekend to shop and have fun for Kalyn's 18th birthday, so I want to be able to give Ty some of the homemade cookies that he just loves!! I made some chocolate chip/m&m cookies this week and took some to work. They turned out so soft and delicious!! Yumm!! So, yes, I have a Christmas party this coming Friday, the 10th, then Saturday we head to ABQ for the night and come back sometime on Sunday. Should be real fun.

I didn't have to clean for Angie, this morning. She's been cleaning all by herself!!! LOL she is having a mold problem in one of her bathrooms, so she said she's been staying on top of the cleaning. I'm so proud as I'd like to get away from cleaning for her. I'm slowly weaning her down to once a month cleanings. Typically, its been every third week, which is fine. I still have Mrs. Courtright to do and she is usually once a month. She brought some jewelry by the bank yesterday and she has a gorgeous little ruby and diamond ring that I want. She's asking $200 so we shall see what Santa brings me!! I also need to pay my Grandma for a sweater she is knitting me. I can hardly wait!! I'm so thankful for all the people around me!!

This weekend is holiday fun weekend in Los Alamos. We've got breakfast with Santa, arts and crafts events and then the light parade tonight at 6. I work here at the gym til 7, so I will have to watch it while it goes by, from here. It's gorgeous weather today also!! I remember bundling up, some years, cuz it is soooo coooold for the parade. It's nice to see people actually here in town doing things and shopping. Most people head down to Santa Fe or ABQ to do stuff.

Well, that is about all I have for now. Take care and look forward to hearing from ya out there. Until next time....
