While today looks great 'weather wise' I am amazed at how quickly things can and will change.
How was your Thanksgiving? I had a great trip to NYC to join my two oldest children; Kristin and Lauren for a little "surprise" get together in the big apple. Yes, I rode a subway. Times Square is crazy as ever, especially at night. Am told the locals stay away, kinda like Memphis and Graceland. It's for the tourists, but man is it pretty.
Still have a couple of kittens left. Time for them to go. I will be wrapping them up and dropping them off at your door step on Christmas morning, if you don't step up now.
In football, the Colts and the Saints remain perfect. The Vikings are looking very good with Favre at the helm. There really are, only a handful of good teams in the NFL this year. I'd be surprised if one of those 3 are not Superbowl winners. (I, of course, continue to be amazed by the under dog heroics of number 4)
It's December, Christmas is just around the corner, maybe it's because I'm getting older, but it just doesn't seem to have the same allure it once did. Is it the commercialization? Spoiled kids? They just don't seem to appreciate what they have, as much, anymore. Maybe I'm becoming a curmudgeon. (spelling?)
I think with all that is going on in the world, and in your life, priorities have changed. Are you sound financially and emotionally? Are the kids well clothed, behaved, healthy and getting a good education? It' frustrating, when you want to give more, but simply can't. Maybe this is the year we "give of ourselves." We go and help those less fortunate. We volunteer, we go give blood. I think there are other ways of giving, that can bring you happiness.
