...a year-and-a-half later...

I do NOT want you to fall over in shock, so I hope you are sitting down. (most likely you are if you are at your computer :-D) There is no need to pinch yourselves, you are NOT dreaming. I updated my blog!

I am setting at Cuppy's Coffee enjoying a cranberry-apple muffin and a cup of black magic. (highly recommended by the way) Meanwhile, I am sitting inside where its warm drinking my coffee and watching our first big snowfall of the season. It is indeed begining to look a lot like Christmas and feel like it, too.

Watching people tread down the snow-covered sidewalks shielding their eyes from the snowy blast makes me wonder what was so important to them today that they battled through weather and traffic to fill their shopping bags. To be honest, the longer I sit here and the faster the snow is falling the more eager I am to go buy a few Christmas presents, myself. They are probably just beat me to the punch. If you've started your Christmas shopping you're already a step ahead of me. (before you leap out of your chair with excitement that's not too hard to do sometimes)

I hope this Christmas finds you in good humor. (hehe) As I reflect over this last year and all that has transpired, I am reminded of the things in life that really matter. The Intangibles. (for those of you with A.D.D.) We are so blessed! This Christmas lets not forget the One from whom these blessings come!

Merry Christmas!!

Good News!!!

I finally updated my blog!

Long time, no blog!

Sorry fellow bloggies for the temporary absence of my blogpresence. Let's just say we were having technical difficulties with access to the sinnernet...Oops...I..uh...Oo...um I mean the internet. I went to the mall today and bought an aircard for my laptop. So now I have access virtually anywhere I have cell phone service. I am "mucho el happio." The English translation, of course is: " I'm as excited as Rosie O'Donnell at a buffet."

Hey all!

Just wanted to let you know (on behalf of Leigh) that I (Jill) have a new blog. It is in his wonderful fellow bloggies list--thanks to me. I know he would have done all this for me, but I took it upon myself to add it to the list. I can't promise many wonderful and interesting posts, but I will do my best. More jabbering there... ~ Jill Murray

Living room is Mt. Boxmore

Jill had yesterday off today for President's Day. So we got this big idea that we would rearrange our apartment. What an adventure that turned out to be! I haven't had that much fun since my last trip to the dentist.

After many nights of disturbed sleep due to loud talking in the foyer, scratchy accordian music, and people running up and down the stairs, we decided to move our bedroom to the quietest and smallest room in the apartment, the office.

It was too great of an undertaking for one day. We turned our living room into Mt. Boxmore, it looks like it was the tragic victim of a volcanic eruption, a tsunami or something like that. At least the bedroom is finished, though. I am looking forward to a good, undisturbed night's sleep.

The first night sleeping in the office was quiet (you know, the way most people like it when they sleep, with the exception of maybe our neighbors). A good night's sleep? I think I can get used to this. I'll have to confess after our first quiet evening in the office, I'm as excited about it as Michael Jackson at a Chuck-e-Cheese!
