After suffering a bit of a post election deflation, I'm finally coming down from the high. The past two months have been crazy. I am finishing up my teaching schedule in about three weeks, I'm starting a new part time job this week, and I am gearing up half heartily for Christmas. I'd really like to boycott Christmas altogether. I heard a good line recently, "Christmas needs us to spend like pregnancy needs us to eat." I spent three weekends including Thanksgiving in Indy this past month-it has been a long time since I've made that many trips to visit family. The cousins are all growing up together.
We finally got around to baptizing this beautiful baby girl a few weeks ago on November 15th. She is after all quickly approaching her first birthday. To all those who have been wondering what has happened to me....she's what.
I am always thinking of jobs that I'd pay people for if I had money, and today I thought of a wonderful gig for someone with elfin spirit-The holiday decorator. Wouldn't it be nice to come home have all of your decorations put out and the boxes put back away in the cobwebby basement? I would seriously pay money for someone to hang lights and not have to hear my husband curse at the Christmas tree stand and threaten to throw the tree out the window.
Anybody up for the task?

She is just lovely. Sorry we missed it. It has been a crazy month for the A family as well. I hope to see you soon, and if you find that freelance holiday designer let me know. I could use a helping hand as well. Perhaps we just all come over and decorate your tree over a few spirits.
