It's Been a Very Long Time...

Okay, I know it's been months since my first intial post. I don't know why I can't get started in this...I love blogs. There are so many that I follow, many that I link to. Maybe that's the problem I get lost in blog heaven. But, and this is a big BUT, I am determined to make 2010 my year to keep up with my blog, if at first weekly then perhaps more frequently. I need to get my mind set that my posts need not be novels, but rather updates to what's going on with me.

I'm on my last day of a four day break from work. I go back to work tomorrow and then I'm off until January 4th. The company I work for is closing down for a week because of the economic situation. I work for a commercial plumber in the project accounting department. Here in New Jersey construction has faced a tremendous slowdown. Our company has several projects in the works, but that won't be until late January/early February. Let's hope that the country gets back into a more stable economic situation.

So, it's a few days before Christmas and today I'm baking cookies. I probably will be baking cookies all day. Just couldn't get into the baking this year. I used to make fourteen different kinds of cookies and started baking right after Thanksgiving. This year I'm only making three batches of cookies. My Kate helped bake three batches last week on her day off. She's a sweetie that Kate. Actually she's picking up more and more cullinary talents and offers to cook dinner for us quite frequently.

As for the other holiday preparations...I made my cards and sent them out. I made my gifts and their ready to give out. I am about 60% gift wrapped and hope to finish that later while I watch some DVR programs. I have a story to tell about our Christmas Tree this, but I'll save that for later when I can post a picture along with story.

That's all for now...have a good day!
