Important blogging topics

I previously blogged about weight loss, political issues, sicknesses and in an earlier blog...poop. All topics were of utmost reading importance, but today is probably the only issue worth writing about.
Family.
I have all my family at home with me now....such an event rarely happens. And with the exception of a few rare moments, the promised time when they really LIKE each other has arrived. For years, as one kid or another told me how much they hated a sibling or two, I told them that one day they would be friends. I PROMISE, I said.
And it finally happened.
All of the kids in one house, sharing rooms, sleeping on floors, sofas and blow up beds....eating together, sharing bathrooms AND they are nice to each other. They are going out together. They are talking together.
I got the best present of all...Peace on my part of the earth and good will towards men.
Merry, happy and most definitely, good.

to blog or not

I have found out that I am most definitely not a blogger. I am seldom on the computer for anything social, and therefore can't imagine that anyone would have any reason to want to read about me.

None the less....today I have my Diane home from the Coast Guard for a week. I believe they own her while she is in active duty, so I thank the Guard for lending her to me for a week.

Last night of Hanukkah! We did not burn down the house, but had about 168 candles burning brightly. They even flickered like electric candles...go figure.

Lu comes in on Tuesday and Hugo on Thursday.

I have NOT finished my Christmas shopping. I have NOT decorated our tree. I have NOT made any christmas cookies.

I will finish the present I am making for Maggie...

On a separate note... my poor Lucky (unlucky if you ask me) has a ruptured disc and is in pain...crying pain.

So sad...it breaks my heart to see him hurting. So I went and bought a crate to put him in so he would move less and hurt less, but then it breaks my heart to see him crated and missing all the fun. Sigh....
