I know
It's no excuse, BUT - - - -
I haven't blogged because I've been wrapped up in work and holiday preparations. My shopping is ALMOST done - the Mr. and I are planning an outing tonight to finish up. I don't have ANYTHING wrapped yet... So, there will be a wrapping night soon.
Work is getting crazy busy (as usual this time of year) - so I'm pretty zapped when I get home.
I hope you are all having a wonderful holiday season.

Happy Friday!
I know I said I'd do an update - it's been a week... I will try to work on getting a trip report put together.
Monday I had a medical procedure done that went fine. AND Little Miss made a trip to the ENT with ear pain. It turns out the sticker from her hearing aid battery was stuck in her ear. Funny now, Monday - not so much!
Tuesday was our work client shopping trip to Chicago. It drizzled most of the day. I had very nice lunch with a girlfriend who works downtown.
Wednesday our furnace went out. They came back yesterday to repair it. Thankfully the outside temps weren't too cold Wednesday night.
Now we have reached the weekend - hooray!
Tonight is my work Christmas party.
Tomorrow I am having lunch with my sister and watching my nephew in the evening.
Sunday I'm off to work.
I hope your week has been good.
What are you up to this weekend?
