January

Wow, January is almost done. I have made a decision. Hence forth you can expect one (1) post a month.
I changed over to the new blogger. It looks the same but I do see some differences.

We went to a wedding. A very beautiful wedding. I think there might have been about 200 guest. The mothers lit candles in memory of the grandparents and uncle of the bride and groom. There were candles galore and lots of greenery. Jesse and I both decided that though this wedding was nice we still wouldn't trade it for ours.
The reception was held at a hotel about 5 minutes from the church. Food was in abundance. It was in buffet style. First was fruit (melon, pineapple, strawberries, etc.), then veggies (carrots, tomatoes, broccoli, etc.), then meatballs, crab salad, chicken tenders, shrimp, and, nachos with bean salad dip (which contained beans, lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, corn, and other stuff.)
Oh, and at the very end of the line was a carving station with roast beef and rolls.
The wedding party took all the pictures while we were feeding our faces. When they finally got to the reception they cut the cake and then the bride and father did a waltz. I have no idea when they served the cake because Jesse and I left right then.

Drip, drip, drip don't you just hate it when you have a drippy faucet? We have had on for a long
time. Sometimes it wouldn't drip and then other times it dripped like crazy. The other day it wouldn't turn off at all. So Jesse went to LOWES and got the part he needed and fixed the faucet. Now it doesn't drip. Yeahhhhhhhh for Jesse.

The cats have decided that it is their obligation to keep us company during the night. Thankfully they do sleep all night. Ummmmm with the exception of Chaos. She will growl if you move and if you continue to move she jumps off the bed waiting for you to stop moving and then will once again jump back on the bed and get comfortable.
I noticed that my mole over my eye has changed. I can't really describe what was going on but I do know that it hurts to touch it sometimes. I went our doctor and was referred to a dermatologist. I go Feb. 5.

Jesse and I, for fun, decided to watch "The Lord of the Rings". I enjoyed it except for all the battles which I tolerated because I wanted to find out what happened. There was not a bad word in any of the movies. I had at one time started to read "The Hobbit" but I just couldn't get into it. I checked out "The Hobbit" along with the 3 books of "The Lord of the Rings". I laughed my way through "The Hobbit" and am now enjoying the first book "The Fellowship of the Ring".

Work has been going well. I have worked almost constantly all of January. They are searching for part time workers. I hope they find some.

Question

This question is directed to those who use blogspot.com

Have you moved your blog to the new version?
What do you think about it?

New Year Resolutions

Yesterday was the day that many people all over the world wrote New Years Resolutions. I used to do that and before one week was up I had broken (or forgotten) the resolutions. Jesse told me on Sunday in church that last year he made one NYR and it was "I will not make any more NYR".
I suppose NYR are good because if you choose attainable resolutions you will reach it. Or if you choose just out of reach resolutions and work at attaining them you succeed. So many times people will choose something that is just out of this world and then can't figure out why they can't follow through with it.

Happy New Year everybody.

Happy New Year!!!

My Christmas updated. Jesse had Christmas Break from Dec. 21 to Jan 2. We decided that our own Christmas would be held on Dec 22. The corporate decision took place because on the 25th we would be heading up to Greenville to be with his relatives by 10 and not get back until 8pm. I gave Jesse a T-shirt. Please check the link. This is no ordinary T-shirt. Jesse gave me an electronic Soduku game. It has over 800 preset games.

On the 25 all of Jesse's family congregated at one of his cousins house. We had a wonderful turkey dinner and lots of fun. This Christmas was the first Christmas that all the "cousins" were married and were together the whole time. The last few Christmas' that I had spent with Jesse's family not everyone was there. Jesse's Grandma also was there. It was fun spending time with family.

I was a little down though because Christmas Eve I received new that my Great Grandma "Grandma Lydia" had passed away that morning. She was a wonderful Christian woman and I know I will see her again some day.

This Christmas season I worked some at the Day Care. Last Christmas I came right out and said that I was not working at all. I think I have worked about 3-5 days in total. I cooked for about 20 kids ages 1-3. It was a lot of fun for me though I think the people I pestered "Now how do I do that?" and such questions probably didn't think it was all that fun. There is a difference between cooking for Jesse and cooking for way more people. That is my own personal opinion.
