Oh man! I have gotten so used to typing "2010" it just rolls right off of my finger tips like gas station hot dogs on the hot roller warmer things... I only get to type it on here 12 more times!

This is the group photo Auntie C took of our Ugly sweater party

Went on an escapade with Uncle Bob in the lovely weather today to see the chainsaw carvings.
This was something we have been talking all year about doing and we finally went out today. 
The carvings were amazing!

forgive the awful framing... I was cold, and snow was getting into my camera

Neil asked when girls are sad do they really eat ice cream out of the tub with a wooden spoon...
And to prove that we really do, I caught this candid picture of Michelle while she watched 17 Again.

Sorry Michelle!
SO, we went to give blood today, and I was deferred but Michelle heroically gave 3 pints of blood :)
(My iron was 10.5, it needed to be 12.5)

I was just informed that she only gave 1 pint of blood... BUT 1 pint can save 3 people :)

Kind of a fun milage number!
I hate watching this number get bigger and bigger everyday though...

This is one of those pictures.

November 15, 2010

Today was kind of one of those days where I got a bunch of tiny annoying things done:
bought TP, dog shampoo and toothpaste
deposited money in my checking at Centier
filled up my gas tank
deposited money in my savings at Chase
set up an online account with Chase
sent these two DVDs- and bought stamps

This picture is terribly out of focus, but every time I send off movies with Swapadvd I feel lighter and less boggled down with old interests.

November 14, 2010

In sorts, I'm on a font kick...
I've been downloading fun fonts such as Dirty Finger, Dirty Darren, Helveticrap, Jerredbuilt, and Hand me Down.
I realize it kind of looks like I made a collage with magazine clippings...

2 min photoshop edit
Only as I was looking at my calendar to type the date for this blog post did I realize that I missed the celebration of 11/11.
