Happy New Year

We had a fairly quiet New Year's Eve. We prefer staying home and out of the way of those "once a year" party-ers! Corby did it again. He made homemade pizza. Well, he made the dough. The boys and I made our own pizzas. We each like something different on them. I had to get a picture of Corby and the mess he makes on his clothes. Yes, he has aprons. Man aprons of course. Does he wear them? Rarely!Here are some of the ingredients we used.
I don't like mushrooms, so I didn't put any on mine. I had ground beef, canadian bacon, pepperoni, onion and cheese on mine. Here's my fresh-from-the-oven pizza!Here's what the boys did after dinner.
Yep, played video games. Poor Kaitlin. She had to work 5-10. We all managed to stay up until midnight and say "Happy New Year" and then us old fogies hit the sack.

Oh yeah, had to show you this picture of Muffin. Both cats love my space heater, and Muffin sprawled out behind me last night. I couldn't get near the heat!
Today has been a rest and relaxation day. We did put up the Christmas tree and decorations, but not much else. Corby and I watched a movie this afternoon: "Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada". I'm a big fan of Tommy Lee Jones, and this movie was good, but strange. I would like to see his latest movie, "No Country for Old Men". I've heard it is really good.

My latest book is another one by Debbie Macomber - RETURN TO PROMISE. I checked out 5 books at the library on Saturday. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE TO READ!

I found a bunch of new quotes yesterday, so today's quote: "Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly." -- Lanston Hughes

VACATION

On vacation for a few days (return to work on Thursday)...here's where I wish I was... I plan on enjoying some peace and quiet...and possibly, if I get motivated, getting some cleaning and organizing done in the office area of the basement. We'll see if that motivation arrives (it's not here yet)... Good news for Park City residents...recycling came to town the first of January. We are charged $4.00 month (added onto our already high water bill); but it has lowered the price of our trash pickup. The company P.C. contracted with has a much lower price than the company we use. Our company matched the price, so our trash bills went down (considerably) AND we get to recycle. We can recycle almost all our plastics, newspapers, cardboard, aluminum cans, cereal boxes, glass, motor oil, etc. We've got two big bags to set out tomorrow. Just doin' our part for the environment. We are without hot water right now...our hot water heater needs a new thermo-couple? It's a fair

K-STATE WINS!

K-STATE beat KU! AWESOME! It was a tense game. Corby is a huge KU fan, and even having a son at K-State hasn't changed that. I am happy when any Kansas team does well; but I had to root for K-State tonight. If the Jayhawks had to lose, I'm glad it was to K-State. Michael Beasley is a great player, and my only concern is that he will leave after his freshman year and go pro. WAY TO GO CATS!
