December 1st, 2011. How did that happen?
Christmas is up and I am loving the smell of my "holiday" candles. I have a cinamon stick/vanilla one and a milsetoe one I alternate between. Love them.
Every year when I bring out the ornaments I am filled with so many emotions of the past. Laughter, love, loss, history, grandmas, moms, so many things. I have a set from my New York City trips with Tom, many Oregon Duck ones and most recently lots of Crate & Barrel Bling... but my favorites are the ones my Mom had or gave me. Superman, Wonder Woman, the business lady in tennis shoes carrying her pumps, Betty Boop, a Bermuda Onion and a clay cross.
I miss my Mom. So very much. Godspeed Mom -- and Merry Christmas.

Single, successful, loyal and fun. I live in Portland, Oregon -- again -- and this time I'm loving it. I run, work, watch TV, read books, live for College Football, and vacation. I am going to live Jimmy Buffett's line from a favorite song... "I've got to fly to St. Somewhere... I've gotta go where it's warm."
