So.........long time, no blog. No excuses other than I just didn't feel like writing but now I do. I graduated in December. Woo Hoo! I start school again in January...what the heck is up with that? Actually, I found that I really like being back in school. (Okay, the homework is not always fun and the online groups...yeah, they pretty much stink...but I like the learning part.)

We had an interesting holiday with family. My siblings and their kids are a fun bunch. We tend to make a LOT of noise when we all get together and I laugh more with them than with anyone else. I met my new Amish nephew. Okay, he's not Amish and technically he's not my nephew but in our family those technicalities don't really matter. He's a college kid and lives with my sister and her boys. Poor kid, he got sucked into the madness that is our family during the holidays. I'm not sure he realized what he was in for. But he survived so he's now official. Welcome to the family, D!

My oldest nephew won the stupid family trick of the year. He did push ups with three of his cousins piled on his back. Fairly impressive stunt...of course he is 6' 7ish'' and all muscle. He scares me a little...not really.

Two weeks spent cooped up with my children AND my spouse is plenty. I am ready to get back to work (okay, not the work part...but I am ready to be out of the house and away from my family for a bit).

No resolutions for 2010. I don't make those (at least not out loud). I do have some intentions...we'll see how they play out. Happy New Year!
