I just realized this morning that it has been over a month since I made an entry here. Eek.
Christmas, and the holidays in general, were a blur for me. Our daughter turned one, and the day before her birthday we had a big birthday party for her at our house. Then the next day, we celebrated again, this time with her great-grandmother from Florida, who flew up for the holidays, and was actually born on her birthday as well. (How cool is that? My grandfather and I shared a birthday as well - so it seems like a family tradition. Our daughter actually shares a birthday with a cousin of mine, and the wife of one of my other cousins. Popular birthday!)
3 days after that, we had Christmas at our house - big family gathering, lots of fun, but crazy and hectic at the same time. Totally wearing after several weeks of planning and work to get ready for it. It was nice having a few days afterwards to just crash and recover from everything. As much as it is nice to stay home on Christmas and have everyone come to you, I'm glad we aren't doing it again next year - I want to really enjoy my holidays, and it is more enjoyable without the work. :-)
Beyond that? Nothing much - have had plenty of things to rant about, but haven't had the desire to write them down at 10 at night -- too tired to get worked up.
