Then Sings My Soul

If you're goin' through hell
Keep on goin'
Don't slow down
If you're scared don't show it
You might get out
'Fore the devil even knows you're there

I live!

Nea's been busy. Work, teaching piano, two choirs, plus Christmas-crazyness and DoRena and Zach coming to visit have kept me away from my 'puter, but I'm a-gonna try once again to blog regularly. We'll see how that goes. ;-)

So in the past two weeks I have congratulated both the Rach(a)els on their engagements!! Which is SO TERRIBLY exciting!! :-D More MHers getting married off... sniff... makes me feel old, in some weird way.

Like I said, DoRena and Zach came for a week after Christmas! We had much fun. There were explosive New Years' festivities (and I do mean that literally - my cousins are pyromaniacs, and we live outside the city limits), many lazy days spent watching movies, playing Apples to Apples, and, wonder of wonders, sleeping in! Bean and I had fun relaxing. I had forgotten there was such a thing.

I got a 19" flatscreen monitor for Christmas from my parents, which is simply wonderful. It's flaaat and shiiiny and oh-so-worthy of beautiful colors. My book and DVD collections also expanded, and I will just say that 10 Things I Hate About You is one of my most favorite movies ever. Even at 1 in the morning.

I also gained another toe injury (I'm beginning to wonder why my feet have such bad luck lately): Laddie escaped from the house while Eddie-down-the-street was blowing up a large amount of Black Cats in a bucket on the cul-de-sac, and shot across the street to "attack" it. I, being a terrified "mother", ran after him and apparently hit the curb a little harder than I thought in my haste to catch him. A good chunk of skin got peeled off the tip of my big toe, and I think I cracked the toenail, too - but I don't want to cut it off and deal with that sort of injury again. For the record, I think this is my fifth toe injury in as many months. And I don't even have big feet!

One more thing: I love Jason. That is all. :-D
