   Kathryn we usually have a few friends over to our place but they have different parties to go to this year. We are actually very excited to just be us. We have been so busy the last few weeks it will be great to relax and spend some time together.

Holly, I hope you feel better soon. It is definitely no fun to be sick.
 Thanks Chris. I feel a lot better than I did Saturday, so there's some progress. No, it sure isn't fun; especially when you're trying very hard not to get to close to your daughter. She had her flu shot though so she should be good. :-)

 Holly, I know just what you mean. When I am sick it is so hard to stay away from my boy in hopes he doesn't get sick. That is so frustrating, I am glad you are on the mend. What a sucky way to start the new year.

What a sucky way to start the new year. Janie, We love puzzles and this is a Sherlock Holmes one. You read the story and then assemble the puzzle to find the clues to figure out the end. These mystery puzzles are so much fun, we have an Alfred Hitchcock, and a Sue Grafton one and we love them.
 5:45pm happy New year guys!
      5:45pm happy New year guys!Spending my new year in bed with a few books and some popcorn. Anyone doing anything interesting?

 Here is the link on amazon for the puzzle I got. They are made by University games under the Bepuzzled line. They are a lot of fun and there are several that I will probably try to get at some point. Here is the link in case you are curious:

     1.55am - I've spent the last few hours researching some very old books I've been given. I'm excited as some of them are quite rare - one or two seem to be over 100 years old. They aren't in great condition but I still love them... to think they have been around for so long and all of the people that might have read them in that time. Would write more but I can't keep my eyes open! Night all! :)

     It's 10:09 AM and I am working. Thankfully a slow day so I hope to get a little reading done since the boss is not in today. Will be on GR for most of my day I suspect.

Kathryn, you can always make some eggs or an omelet without milk. I like to make an omelet with some toast and have my coffee with that. That actually sounds really good right now. I'm hungry, can't wait for lunch break now.
 10:14 AM. Thanks Chris! I do have eggs and bread! I have oatmeal, too, but I don't think I want oatmeal today. Haha, sorry to make you hungry!!

     No big deal, usually at some point I start thinking about food and it happens inevitably. If it wasn't this it would have been something else. I love to cook just as much as I love to read. ;-)

      Kathryn I hate when there is no Milk!! We use milk so much. (Hope cows do not become extinct O:)
Chris I love to cook too, as long as I have the stuff to cook with lol. Since hub has been working the night shift I find I dont cook as often and I dont cook the same things I used to.

Happy New Year, Chris! My husband and I are staying home, too. We live in Dallas, and there are usually just way too many people out on NYE.
