Moving right along. . . .

That phrase always makes me think of the Muppet Movie; and that makes me smile. Muppets are my go to movies when I just need something fun playing in the background....that or musicals or Fraggle Rock. (Yes, I know, I'm strange).

Anyway, life has just been chugging along. J hasn't been in any shows so it's been nice having him at home, but strange at the same time. I know that sounds weird, but it is strange for me to have him at home in the evening. We can actually get things done, but don't. I mean, we both work on stuff but nothing really seems to come of it.

Our master bedroom is still a disaster due to the pipe burst. While we fixed the pipe, we haven't put the wall back together, therefore our room is still in pieces. Procrastination I know, but now that football season is over with, maybe we'll be home on the weekends to get it put together.

Talking about football, I'm glad that is over. Not that I mind the first few games since it's warm, I just have an issue with being outside in the cold. Never liked it, but I did get some fun this season (when I wasn't sick--which happened more often than not this season)




J and I usually do a light's parade with the Star Wars Costume groups yearly and it is usually freezing! This year, luckily, it was great weather and I was able to convince a couple of my friends to come up with me. I wish I could have taken more people, but they wouldn't fit in my vehicle! It was an easy parade, good weather, not too many horses in front of us, and great car conversation (seriously, almost the entire drive up was talking about dinosaurs and movies with dinosaurs).

They had to. I thought it was funny =)


Holidays are the hardest time for me. It seems that everyone expects things from you and doesn't understand when I say that we've got something else to do, or "thanks but no thanks". There are times that I'd rather be at home with just a few close friends than at a party with people I don't know. I'd much rather host and know that the food I cook I can eat rather than be somewhere and get asked multiple times why I'm not eating and people not believing me when I say I can't due to food allergies. I actually had one person ask once "are you sure you're not anorexic?" I replied with a yes, and I'd rather not end up sick and in the hospital because of food, so back off. Yeah, that didn't end well at all.

Oh well. Hope everyone's holiday will be great! While I tend to be camera shy, and would much rather take picture of J, he's getting in the habit of taking a few pictures, so maybe there will be more pictures of me. We'll see.

Aww, love you so much, and I MISS YOU! It's funny because we're both kind of hermits so it's like we miss each other, but it's pulling teeth making ourselves plan something and actually getting together. But it's nice that we both understand! That said, I hope we can find some time soon to get together.

Life certainly has been chugging along!
