it's cold and gloomy outside.
you realize what you really spent on Christmas.
your neighbors elliptical is begging you to come back and show it some love.
honestly i have nothing exciting to really blog about...
so i guess i'll blog about me,

ReplyDeleteI love this post. Love to find out interesting facts. Are you really 5 ft. tall? If you are, you're now my best friend. You're in good company.
ReplyDeleteI think this is so neat! I also lived in the same town I was born in - 30 miles west of you - ok, Hutch.
ReplyDeleteLove, your blog. Just wait till you're almost 80! That does give one pause...
you have your mom's birthday to look forward to in Jan....she's having the birthday w/cake hopefully but no aging :)
