How is everyone this morning?    We will have a quiet day today since the twins won&#39;t be coming up.   I&#39;m disappointed but on the other hand I&#39;m happy to have nothing to do.    I think I will begin the dreaded returns that follow the holidays.   It makes me so mad with the price of toys that half of them don&#39;t do what they are supposed to do.    I have a whole pile of things that have to go back for one reason or the other.  <br /><br />Dave &amp; his family left in the early afternoon and had a long ride home due to very heavy fog but made it home safely.   Paige &amp; Colin had a great Christmas and enjoyed spending time with their cousins.   From the moods of the 4 of them yesterday I don&#39;t think any of them got much sleep during their sleep-over but Dave said he had a very quiet drive home.   lol<br /><br />I can&#39;t believe there are just a few days left in 2008.   Anyone have big plans for seeing the New Year in.   Think I will just leave the TV on so if I do wake up around midnight I&#39;ll see 2009 come in.   lol<br /><br />Joey - hope you had a great day yesterday and your birthday was everything you hoped it would be.<br /><br />Ed - glad you and Roe made it home safely.    Glad Roe got her grandkids fix.<br /><br />Jenn - enjoy your party.  Hope the weather clears for all your guests.<br /><br />Deb - it&#39;s always fun to see old friends.   Glad you had a good time.   <br /><br />Steve - Lynda&#39;s curio cabinet is gorgeous.  She has quite a collection there.    At least it is all safe from Heidi (and you) now.<br /><br />Mercedes - great gift you received.    These &quot;gadgets&quot; get smaller and more compact - and do more things  all the time.   enjoy it.<br /><br />RNSANE - we are always happy when you drop by.    Hope you can visit more often.<br /><br />Kevin -  Did Heather have a good Christmas?   I&#39;m sure Santa found you all.<br /><br />Rose - glad you got your packing done.    Now if Howie would pack you would be all set.   <br /><br />Jackie - I assume you decided to accept the job offer you had since you are dreading going back to work.   April 15th will be here before you know it and then you can hit the road again.    Any big RV plans?<br /><br />James - hope you had a quiet and peaceful holiday at your house.   Are you busy packing yet for the move?<br /><br />Shari - I hope you had a great holiday.   How are your grandkids doing?<br /><br />Chris- Hope all is OK with you - we miss hearing from you.<br /><br />Andrea - glad to hear your folks know about the cruise - see you were worried over nothing.    Almost time to start packing.<br /><br />Shaunna - Robert  - I hope you had a good holiday and will be back with us soon.   Sure do miss you around here.<br /><br />Time to sort out this mess of things and find all the receipts.    I dread going to ToysRUs but that is where most of the things came from.     Also have to hit Target, KMart and the outlets before I get this all straightened out.    Gift cards are beginning to look better and better.    <br /><br />Make today special and enjoy the last few days of &#39;08.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
