Happy Holidays!

Belated happy holidays to everyone! I have been busy busy, as I'm sure all of you have been.

Christmas went fine for once, considering. We went to Troy's parent's house...and it was madness as usual. I don't understand how one family can handle so much yelling and screaming and bitching and chatter. At one point, we took Maddie for an hour long walk over to one of his friend's houses...just to get out. Once again, a visit to Hampton made us solidify our plans for a very very private quiet wedding. Sheesh. If that were present at my wedding, there would be no wedding.

Anyway, to be pleasant though, they gave us some very nice gifts for the house. Lots of kitchen stuff that we needed, and some we didn't, but wanted anyway.

New Year's was much more low key. This is the first year that I haven't been working on New Year's Eve, so that was nice. We had dinner at P.F. Chang's for the first time, even though we couldn't afford it, then came back here, tried to watch The Longest Yard(Comcast blows), and ended up watching The Dukes of Hazzard(I protested) and then watched the ball drop. I got my standard 10 dollar bottle of champagne and got little drunk(well, maybe more than a little). It was nice. Then today, I purchased something I had been researching for a while... Yourself!Fitness for Xbox. I love it so far. It's great.

When I have more time though....I'll post a bit of info about the program. I'm trying to get to bed early tonight so I'll be rested up for a busy week. Hope everyone's holidays went well...though I know Kim's never will as long as the in-laws are around! You make me look foward to mine! NOT!
