I'm the cluttery one in my house, though Bob can be too. He gets irritated at me about it sometimes, but neither of us has been very good housekeepers for the last three or four years, when his dad first got sick and I started working on rural education issues. I really would like to get back to the way we were for a while after we built the house, and I'm hoping to get a lot of housework done while I'm on Christmas break.

The Joy of Christmas Excess . . .

It is -1°F and it will be in the teens all day. The snow is packed and solidly frozen and there are ice blocks along the road. I was gallivanting most of the weekend, but I plan to stay here the whole week—no more shopping for me.

How's everything with you?

I won't talk about our current weather for fear of flying shoes and vegetables, but I did have a nice weekend. I spent most of it working on Christmas presents, but I did get out to parties both Friday and Saturday night.

I'll be leaving either Thursday night or sometime around the butt-crack of dawn on Friday morning to head up north for the holiday. I'm staying with a friend in Sacramento most of that time but driving down to Danville in the Bay Area for Christmas day to be with family.

I have a dandy new job as a stock room person. Yay me!

Merry Christmas, Moties!

17876. theDiva - 12/20/2005 4:41:03 PM

and a happy new year, too!

17877. Magoseph - 12/20/2005 4:49:38 PM

This is so great--our Diva and her girls! Congratualtions, Diva!

17878. Magoseph - 12/20/2005 4:51:00 PM

Congratulations, I mean--I got so excited to see your name that I had to check to see if I was in current times.

17879. theDiva - 12/20/2005 5:33:02 PM

Hey Mags! I just thought I'd duck in, say hello, and post the latest of the girlies. Aren't they big now?

How's everything with you?

17880. Magoseph - 12/20/2005 5:41:01 PM

Everything is fine with us--kids are more settled and more successful, that's what counts for us.

Rosie has a wonderful smile--how old old is she now?

17881. theDiva - 12/20/2005 5:46:34 PM

that's marvelous.

Rosie will be 5 in March. Carolanne has just finished her first semester at Sweet Briar, majoring in Studio Art and working in the college art gallery. She loves it.

17882. Magoseph - 12/20/2005 5:51:53 PM

Carolanne, no more Gracie, times change--She looks beautiful and rather sophisticated. I kept the picture you posted when you were together resting and she was a tiny baby--it is a gorgeous picture of you two.

17883. theDiva - 12/20/2005 5:55:04 PM

Craps! I meant to post Gracie. Oh well.

Thanks, I can't believe my gamine is a young woman. 19 years old.

17884. PsychProf - 12/20/2005 6:02:13 PM

Beautiful

17885. theDiva - 12/20/2005 6:03:59 PM

Why, if it ain't The Big Geek.

17886. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 12/20/2005 6:08:50 PM

Hey Deev–Every good wish to you and yours!

17887. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 12/20/2005 6:10:25 PM
